Summary so far.
Stewart has organised the battle day for 8th July.

I am not sure who is attending but here is an initial list which can be amended by  copy and re post.


The players
Stewart 
Miles  International Brigade
Simon  Reading freedom party
martin  Moroccan regulares
Big Mike
Chris
Poole Ian + Andy
Richard


Players will need two dice colours as this game is a bit like PBI with AP  D6. 16 same D6 and another 4 other same D6.
5x3 table. No measures needed.

I will indeed be attending. Sadly, I'll have to leave mid-afternoon, so would be grateful if I could join in the second game as an extra player, and slope off when I need to.

Simon

I am bringing my rubber dead.


martin :)

Since these are no good for grinding together and chipping paint off, are we allowed to use them to make corrections on our battle sheets, Martin?

Simon

Indeed Simon.
Ho Ho.

Stewart

I reckon a 9am arrival with a first game starting at 9.30?
The "later" players arriving at 10?

Two games in the day.
The practice SCW games went quite smoothly so the two games should fit into the day nicely.

I predict a big activity in the shop at 8.50 to 9.30 whilst all the gamers arrive together and get to their tables.
If you have your own mug it might be useful to bring it so that it is readily identified by others in the melee?
Then you can leave it behind and wonder where it went?

Thanks Martin, and a good point about the mug. I must remember to forget mine.

Simon

Simon your force is Nationalist? Not Republican as listed ?
Miles

Miles - you are correct - Nationalist. It's more like the Reading Fascist Party :)

Martin's spies are poorly informed, but I assume that they will be appropriately dealt with.

Sorry I missed this earlier, but I suspect that Martin's agents have been revising history and editing his previous post from this morning...

Simon

And a reminder that I will unfortunately have to leave mid-afternoon. I do intend to bring my little men back with me, so could someone please bring a spare force for folk to play with in the afternoon, once mine have made their tactical renewal after the morning game?

Simon

And just thinking about the balance of forces per "faction"  ;), could Big Mike's Assault Guards be played as Nationalists?

Simon

Well my British (Weymouth) International Brigade of Home Guard and Naval staff would love to meet your (Italian) Nationalists in the morning !
Miles

No worries. There will be spare armies there.
I have marked Simon as a nationalist.

With 4 Republicans, it looks as though we will be seeing a civil war within a civil war?  :)

Simon

But a lot of these forces are "interchangeable" within reason ? Plus there was a lot of in fighting as well ! So it wouldn't be absolutely unreasonable for 2 matching forces to fight each other ?
Miles

I am also bringing my Requetes (Nationalist) for a borrow player.
