Based on the highly successful WADBAG methodology, here is a proposed Theme Tourney for a future Con (maybe Historicon) that I’ve placed on the DBA Fanaticus site http://www.fanaticus.org/discussion/showthread.php?p=65647#post65647.
Please send in your thoughts. EDIT NOTE: Map and number of players has been revised!
1000-1100 AD – the Scourging of the British Isles
1. Viking III/40b (Orkney Isles)
2. Viking III/40b (Dublin)
3. Norse Irish III/46 (Armaugh)
4. Norse Irish III/46 (Waterford)
5. Welsh III/19A (Wales)
6 Anglo-Dane III/71 (London)
7. Anglo-Dane III/71 (York)
8 Pre-Feudal Scots III/45 (Scone)
9. Norman III/51 (Normandy)
10. Western Frank III/51 (Frankish Empire)
11. Scot Isles and Highlands III/77 (Dalradia)
12. Leidang III/40c (Danelane)
13. Breton III/18 (Breton)
14. Eastern Frankish III/52 (Eastern Franks)
Suggest map is below.
Special Rules: Normans and Franks, unless defending their own territories, are always the Invader (no die roll). Normans and Franks MAY use a littoral landing if a waterway is present.
Alan, I want to get your schedule options for Historicon, to do the British campaign. Are you only at the Con on Thursday afternoon?
I have a hole on Friday evening. But that is after the Big Battle Doubles, in case you were in that, that is quite a squeeze to fit in something after.
Please reply to my email address, thanks
Hello, I am coming to Historicon this year and would love to bring my Scots Isles and Highlanders to play in your game. CAn you save me a slot for that army?
Thanks
Jeff
Hi Jeff,
At this point, there aren’t any “reservations” as of yet. However, we still need a Scots Isles army, so that’s good news for you. More info will be on the Fanaticus site soon.
Alan
Alan,
–Would love to play in your British Isles Campaign event.
–If you’re thinking of running this year at Historicon (and I hope you do) you might consider the Friday PM and Saturday afternoon slots. The two most well-attended DBA events at Historicon are BBDBA on Friday 0900-1800, and the NICT on Saturday at both 0900-1300 and 1930-midnight.
–Normans are my only army from your campaign army list, so would appreciate a heads-up whenever you begin to take reservations.

Jim,
The date and time for this has already been setup by Bob Beattie and is in the PEL for H-Con. As for sign-ups still need to hear back from Bob on what armies will be provided, or players need to bring.
