I have a cloth thanks.

Can I please confirm scenery requirements, for the avoidance of doubt?

Is it correct that the 3 people (Martin is clearly over-endowed) mentioned below are collectively providing a full set of scenery for the 4 tables, and the rest of us just just need to bring along our toy soldiers, pencil, tea mug, dice and markers?

Morning all,

Just seen this, if its my Ben who is 'Southampton Ben', he isnt aware of bringing a tables worth of scenery or had any discussion on what is needed.

Thanks Martin.

To be clear, when you say "Please bring 15 pieces of your choice. Players can choose their 6 each from those that you bring", you are addressing this at John and yourself?

Simon

[martin goddard]

Yes. Good to clarify this Simon.
Otherwise each table would need 36 pieces.

I will bring a selection of 15 for each table. Don't worry it won't be 15 hills.
Looking forward to it.

Thanks Martin.

I like that point 13 was written in secret ink - very clever.

Are we aiming to congregate for c. 08:30 for a leisurely start, and then kick off seriously once the bacon butties have been consumed? I'd hate to be late. I'd also feel cheated of beauty sleep if I got up too early.

0830 that's lunch time for me. Especially as I am working. Sandwich and a cold(iced) coffee by then.

Wonderful - you can envisage me tucking into a nice warm bacon buttie shortly thereafter, Miles. I'm sure that thought will help while away the remainder of your round
