Below are the results of the recent Dead man walking comp held in Newcastle, Australia

The comp was a 25mm four round comp. two games per day. 8 by 5 tables with preset terrain. 3 and half hours plus or minus 10mins. 1500pts

The special rules for this comp were that all non-general mounted elements were double their normal price in points, and players could elect to ignore mounted minimums for lists. (any Warrior list was OK)

Name Army Points
Darren Holmes Later Imperial Romans 16
Greg Preston Med Spanish (A) 15
Graeme Ralph Early Imperial Rome (W) 14
Dale Dobie Spanish 14

Geoff Crick Scots Isles

Any chance you'd have enough time or could get others to post after action reports??? - love reading about battles, especially w/ the lack of time for gaming.

Thanks,

Oh, this rocks! I LOVE the special rule. Dacians *and* Spartacus!!

The Romans and Japanese are no surprise...

Greg, did you take any Knights? Wink

Yes, I had 4 blocks of knights- each with a general -so they only cost an extra 200 points on their "normal" cost Rolling Eyes

Hey, somebody had to do it. I was originally going to go with Med French but thought that 8 units wasn't really a big enough footprint on 8 by 6 tables.

Will try to post some descriptions of games shortly.

Great theme. Could we consider a Historicon theme tournament along these lines?

Echo what Jon said about cool tourney rule.

Theme tourneys are meant to be, well, historical, hence, something like what Greg describes, in itself, isn't terribly applicable.

Now, that isn't to say that it can't be used simply in an open environment or an appropriate historical theme event. I kinda like the concept for the 2000 point Doubles tourney at CW, fwiw.

The theme itself worked fairly well. If running it you might even make the mounted more expensive, say 3 times the cost rather than the double that we used.
Stop all those nasty Med Spanish Smile
