Art De La Guerre

[madaxeman]

The 4rd edition of the UK's most pasty-tastic v4 L'Art de la Guerre Tournament will again take place in Brixham in the glorious South West of England

Tickets: https://buytickets.at/madaxemancom/1105481

More B&B's and out-of-season-priced self catering accommodation options than you can shake a haddock at!
Great pubs & local restaurants !
World-class fish and chips - straight from the boat!
"There's a good chance you're retired, or at least working part time by now, so why not make a long weekend of it and come down for a few days ?"

Date – 30th November & 1st December 2024 (a bit earlier this year, hopefully we can keep these dates going forward and beat off the attentions of wannabe Christmas Markets!)

Both 15mm & 25/8mm periods on offer
The event is limited to about 50 or so players, so secure your spot soon.
Standard ADLG v4 rules, 200 points, 5 games.
Entry fee is £27.50, to cover the venue and prizes. If we end up with a surplus we'll look to buy everyone a posh donut or something.

The theme for both periods is - astonishingly - a "Devonian" one of:

“Life after the Filthy Britons, 927-1086
Armies valid in Dark Age Europe dated between Aethelstan’s expulsion of the Cornish from Devon (in which he condemned what were described by later chroniclers as the “filthy Britons” to forever live west of the Tamar), until Williams "conquest" of Exeter (or more accurately "Exeter's bloodless capitulation") in 1086.

(* Da Management reserve the right to tweak this theme at a later date should anything really unbalancing get spotted)
I'm sure you can beg, borrow, steal or - god forbid - buy and paint up something for this period but if you are struggling please let me know as I have enough lead (and plastic) to loan several armies in both scales and themes if needed.

Happy Fish & Chip eating!
