Boosting this thread. Should I do a game tracker like for november
It might be useful to keep track of things and place players.

The tracker seemed to work well. I'm up for a Venetian rumble. Lace Hulk was brilliant fun.

This is the current status of the 'Andy and EB game' next May.
Having compared armies, Andy and I feel that I'll need to take up Tim H's offer of a cavalry regiment and, very likely, ask Peeler for the loan of some of his splendidly based Spencer Smith infantry.
We will be playing the game over Saturday and Sunday on a 24' to 30' table (although that's negotiable depending what room/tables the other games need.
The rules will almost certainly be Black Powder which Gary has very kindly offered to adjudicate/umpire.
There will be six players. At the moment we have Andy and me, Peeler, Tim H and possibly Pemps (it's his 60th birthday and he may be doing other stuff). So at the moment we need just one volunteer.......and a scenario.

Peeler doesn't have any splendidly based Spencer Smiths. They are all Front Rank. I believe he has some unpainted Spencer Smiths that he could get cracking on and then base them properly...

Oh yes. He did tell me that after I'd asked for a loan.......oh well, damage done now.

I Think the Vineci game will need up to ten of the three foot square tables and at least a couple of the 2ft 6 by 6ft tables if all those are available.

I think there might be a Table Top Teaser for "Extended Flank March Accidentally Bumps Into Full Scale Rout"

Very funny.......
At first I read "rout" as 'riot'.......brilliant, I thought, something for which we'll need vast numbers of civilians.
