Ditto. There would be no Warrior without Scott.

I'll have full results over to Jeff Zorn for posting on the NASAMW
page sometime this week.

Winners were:

25mm Doubles: Dave Stier & Frank Gilson, Knights of St John
15mm Doubles: Bill Low & Mike Mallamaci, Tang Dynasty
25mm Mini: Frank Gilson, Alexandrian Imperial
15mm Mini: Mike Kelly, Mongols
Sportsman: Chris Damour
Best Camp: Christian Cameron (I'll let him post the symbology of his
camp). Honorable Camp mention: John Becker for his 15mm Medieval
Camp, very nice.

Special mention should go to Hans Dietrich and Andrew Kroupa, sons
of Dave and Rich respectively, who gamely hung in there on Saturday
for 12 hours of Warrior. Hans also played the Mini solo on Friday.
And Patrick Byrne, son of Mike Bryne, played teams on Saturday. He
looked perkier by the end of the day but he's also a couple of years
older than Hans and Andrew.

I'd also like to thank the OMM guys, specifically Fred and Rich, for
playing "rotating team members" with Dean Marquis, all of whom were
roped into playing at the last minute because I had odd numbers in
both scales and nobody capable of switching scales. The same for
newcomer Asif Chaundhry who teamed up with Bill Chamis and played in
Doubles at the last minute. These guys had fun and more
importantly, made sure that nobody had byes in any given round.
Thank them profusely the next time you see them.

Rules questions were awfully easy. I think now that we're 4 years
from original publication, we've gotten the kinks worked out! I did
my usual "impartial judge of geometry" and I appreciate everybody's
acceptance of how I moved things for them when asked.

Rich Kroupa had some very nice terrain, his hills and major water
features were gorgeous. And Christian Cameron also had all kinds of
nifty hills and such. Finally, Dick Hurchanik had all kinds of
oriental buildings which he'd place in terrain features simply to
add some neat color and ambiance to the army he ran (Koryo
Korean). And it was easy for him, he found em at a pet store that
sells lotsa fish and aquariums. And they're cheap. So if you're
looking for something like that, go to your local pet store and see
what they have.

Gorgeous armies abounded in both scales. Large portions of Dave
Dietrich's Alex Imperial in 15mm, Jon Becker's French (can't
remember off the top of my head if they were Feudal or something
else entirely) in 15mm stood out in that scale. In 25mm, man,
sooooo much stood out. Rich Kroupa's Berbers were, er, um,
beautiful and the figures themselves accurate despite the fact that
many banners and standards had a certain LOTR quality to them:)
Christian Cameron's Skythians were knock outs. Greg Hauser's
Sultanate of Delhi, although they've been around for a good while
now, are wonderful. And we had TWO Feudal Japanese lists in 25mm.
Finally, Tim Brown and Ambrose Coddington again ran Arab Conquest
but the coolest thing in their army is the scratch built camels
disquised as elephants! I mean I wandered around and simply stared
at games simply from the spectacle.

Thanks for all for attending.

Scott - Thank _you_ for volunteering your time to come half way across
the country and run the whole show, attange for everyone to get three
games in their scale, put up with all our incessant nagging and
haggling, provide rulings/consult on Sunday pick-up games even after
all the tournies were done, and generally just continue to do a fine
job as you have for years and years and years - at a huge con where
you could have been playing Warrior yourself instead or even something
entirely different, Space Marines if that's your thing, we all owe you
a debt of gratitude for making the sacrifice, yet again, to enhance
and facilitate everyone else's enjoyment of the game.

Actually, I recall a fellow named Morgan something or another and another Fellow
named Larry Essick stepping up one Historicon when Scott couldn't run things.
The games would still go on without Scott, but they would not be the same
flavor. I remember meeting Scott Holder at the Penn Harris many years ago and he
left an indelable impression on me for his fairness and willingness to listen.
He is an asset whose absence would be missed.
