Rex Britannorum

[keyth]

With the advent of the Age of Belisarius, there are some fun lists for the British Isles. Is anyone one interested in a simple, casual, everyone-plays-everyone tournament/campaign thing for bragging rights as King (or Queen) of the Britons? Available armies are:

Anglo-Saxon 449 - 599AD
Pictish 210 - 476AD
Pictish 477 - 850AD
Romano-British 407 - 599AD
Scots-Irish 50BC - 476AD
Scots-Irish 477 - 846AD
Welsh 477 - 599AD

There are no restrictions on army choice so any number of players could choose the same army. All battles will be Medium/Medium with Potluck terrain. The winner will score (Loser's rout% - Winner's rout%). Prestige can be earned and lost - prestige scores will be used to decide any ties and also be there as a bit of fun to play for bragging rights.

Prestige 'tags' can only happen one per general per battle, so a general who routed, rallied and routed again would only get one 'Broken' result. Prestige scoring will operate on an honour system and I would hope players will review each other's claims in a positive way The tags are:

Fighter: Own General engages in melee combat (CinC +10/SG +5)
Broken: Own General routs (CinC -10/SG -5)
Coward: Own General routs without fighting (CinC -20/SG -10)
Deserved death: Own General killed while routing (CinC -10/SG -5)
Glorious dead: Own General killed in combat in a victorious battle (CinC +20/SG +10)
Honourable dead: Own General killed in combat in a lost battle (CinC +10/SG +5)
Cut off the head: Enemy General killed (CinC +20/SG +10)

I'll sign up.

[Doyley50]

Yes please

[pantherboy]

I'd be interested.

[keyth]

Thanks for the interest so far! Details added to original post.

[Ludendorf]

Alright. One more here.

[Najanaja]

As much as I like the idea, I was a little ambitious signing up for this.

I have a lot of games on at the moment so I'll have to withdraw.

[Vardus]

I'd be in, although I've mostly played offline. Seems like a fun way to play some less-common lists.

[klayeckles]

i'm in if it happens.

Thanks for the interest. I'll wait a few more days to see if there are any more takers then get things rolling!

Never saw any updates, this still on?

[keyth]

Yep. It seems we have got as many interested as is going to happen, so it's army choosing time! There are no limits on army selection so choose whatever you want from the list. I'll be trying my luck with the later Scots-Irish list.

[Ludendorf]

Put me down for the later Pictish list please.

[Doyley50]

Could you put me down for Ango Saxon please?

[Vardus]

I'll be in for the Saxons.

[shadowblack]

If you are still taking on players, put me down for early Sots Irish

[ahuyton]

I would be interested. Preferably with Romano-Brits or Picts.

No problem if you are already overwhelmed with players.

[pantherboy]

Romano-British for me.
