Priority will be given to those who have attended previously but new players are also welcome. The themes are similar but slightly different to last year.

Venue details are here: http://www.sarisburygreen.org.uk

We are close to Southampton Airport for those coming from further afield and may be able to arrange lifts to and from the airport.

As before this will be a 3-player Team event, 1 player in each pool. Please email Pete Dalby at peterdalby1960@gmail.com if you wish to attend by the 31st July.

Still hoping to run it. We'll see how we get on with the Govt restrictions and then I'll get some comms out nearer the time.

Glad to see the old Worlds dates being used. We also run the 6th Ed WRG on the same weekend in Sutton in Ashfield. Go for it all you ancient players.

Sadly the new Govt rules on the group of 6 means that we are no longer able to proceed with this event.

Please pencil in the first weekend of October 2021 when hopefully the world will have returned to normal.

There is a Typo in the Libyan Egyptian allies list
The final line has a minimum of 8 bases of Libu or other javelinmen. But a minimum of 12 bases of MF before that
I am going to rule a minimum of 12 total with a minimum of 8 MF
