NOTE: there is also a 15mm competition - tickets also available via eventbright.
Tickets provide entry to the trade show and the (traditionally very good) Bring & Buy stand.

By popular demand the 28mm competition this year is 200 point armies from any list provided it is legitimate in 1106AD.

The building of Devizes castle started in the early 12th century, at first as a mottle and bailey castle in wood. It was on the boundaries of three manors - Rowde, Bishops Cannings and Potterne. It became known by its Latin name Castrum ad divisas - the castle at the boundaries, which evolved through the Vyses to an anglicised Devizes. The first documentary evidence for the castle is in 1106 when Robert of Normandy was imprisoned there.

The theme for the weekend is therefore "Any army dated 1106.”

Armies to be painted 200 points in 28mm, using 60mm frontage.

We will play to the latest rules and official clarifications/errata.

Players to provide their own game mats and terrain pieces as is the norm.

Four games will be played over the weekend.

28mm Competitor Army lists to be emailed to Colin Cavenagh by 3 July 2026: colin_cavanagh@yahoo.com

Please note that the 15mm competition is playing the far 'racier' 5 game format - nothing quite so 'hurried' for us 28mm lot . We need more time to enjoy each others painting (or so it is believed)

Hi Alexander

I've check & you are correct.

I am not the organizer. I just posted info here as it's not been posted here previously (but might be elsewhere - such as Facebook or on the BHGS site).

You might want to contact the organizers to see if they can open up anymore spaces, but usually they will try to get an additional pair of spaces filled, to avoid byes.

But even registering your an interest as a standby player might be helpful

Cheers
Mark
