Title: CK battle day 7th October
Post by: martin goddard on September 25, 2023, 07:48:09 AM
CK battle day 7th October at Entoyment.

I thought I would get the chat going.
It is two weeks away.

Who is going and with what army please?
I have spare armies for players to borrow if they wish.

Copy this lost and add to it.
martin= tribal Germans

I don't mind, you know me. I am still very much learning about the period covered as well as the rules.
I ve got some new RR A/cars I could use them ? With my new German trains ?  LoL

Armoured cars. No problem Miles.

I will map out a Carolingian army,  or would you rather do it yourself?
The army book is free on the PP website.

I will put a  suggestion here.

I have one complete table set up and will bring a second too. In case we are short.
Anyone else got a table set up?
I will print off playsheets and battle sheets.

I have a special Dorsetshire-hancrafted mat, and think I have a full set-up (i.e. repurposing my AK47 terrain).

I can have a proper look if this is needed.

Thanks Martin. A more basic question is: what version of the rules are we using?  :)

I know we're at a critical juncture with the printing imminent and so you may not wish to be circulating "nearly there" PDFs at this point, but is there an earlier playtest version that's good enough for reference?

Simon
Title: Re: CK battle day 7th October
Post by: martin goddard on October 01, 2023, 12:50:42 PM
Good point
The rules are at the printers but probably not out for the CK battle day.
I will make sure I send out an older pdf but there are no changes that players need be aware of.
The army list book, battle sheet and play sheet  are all up to date and free on the PP website. Everyone playing (or at least 1 per table)  should be pretty experienced.

I will do a list of reminders too.

Post by: martin goddard on October 01, 2023, 06:20:16 PM
Yes please Simon.
A mat and scnery. Players can only choose 3 pieces so 6 for a table.

This gives Stewart x1
martin x2
Simon x1
If Derek is there he has setup too.
= 4 game setups.

Hope to be there by then but I have to be at Heathrow for 0700, so it will be traffic dependant.

You could fly from Heathrow to Entoyment.  Parachute out and  there you are. ???
