Ogniem i Mieczem - By Fire and Sword

Hi guys , I'm just wondering how many pepople would be interested in "By Fire and Sword league"? We had similar league two years ago, and it was quite fun The idea is simple. Each player would play with each other emerging at the end the final two. The games can be played anywhere ( clubs, house, shop etc...) After each game you would send me the results. Each game must be played during the space of four weeks. Level of the games depens on players, you can play whatever you will agree. ( Skirmish, Task force, Division). Each game you can use different list but from same nation.

1. The classification is made according to Large Points.
2. If several players have the same number of Large Points the classification is decided by Small Points.
3.If there is still a tie the classification is decided by the result of a direct game between those players (number of Small Points in this game).
4The number of historical victories, then strategic victories, then tactical victories
5. If there is still a tie the classification is decided by fate (we will draw the winner for example by a throw of a coin – the winner gets the higher place and the looser gets the Wargamer ducat that was thrown).


Cheers,
Mattski.

Would have been fun to be a part of this. But flying to UK each time for a fight will get a bit expensive. Talked to Iluzagin about it, to have something like this in the Netherlands.

Good luck guys and please share photos and battle reports, no matter how small (or some nice videos... just saying).

My game against James tonight was cancelled due to a serious accident on the M6 which would have meant a 2 hour journey for James, hopefully re-arranged for next Tuesday.

Any news?

Cancelled again, World Cup got in the way!

Re-scheduled for Tues 17th July!

Last night we played two games in 4 hours! was full on fun and there was lots of toys on the table, both Richard and myself had 13FSP forces! Richard played both Mattski and I and managed to do really well, despite when Mattski ruined his morale with a double one result during additional effects!

A couple of great games, both very different; one delay the enemy (me defending, well trying to) and an attack on a village. Great games though.

So I finished my "group" stage of the league and now I have to wait for the rest to finish their games.
I've chosen just because I heard many times that it is very challenging army...And I have to confirm it. In my opinion the only list which is quite good is Allied Landing on Als (14 December 1658) skirmish force. Still challenging but at least you can try some action with them. I lost my first two games and then I decided to switch to Allied landing on Als and from first game I coud tell the difference. Prussian Territorial Defense (1655-1660) in my opinion is just to weak and depends on scenarios. I might be wrong, I'm still far from calling myself an expert of BFaS, it is just my opinion after few games

So, that is the final results of our league! First of all massive thank you to all of you for taking part in the league. All the distance we all had to travel and fact that we are all living so far from each other, and still managed to finish this league, is just amazing. In total we had played over 30 games!
Big thank you to Roland for supporting the price for the winner. Hope to see you all in January at Battlefield hobbies.
