2016 DBMM Competition



The competition is for 15mm 400pts singles for the date period 476AD to 1071AD, with two games being played over one day


Additionally, players will have available an extra 20 points to purchase stratagems (see pages 15 to 17 of the rulebook). The extra 20 points may not be exchanged for troops or anything other than stratagems. If the extra points are not used they are lost. Please note that some stratagems are only available to a Brilliant General and that they are limited for an Inert General. If using a Brilliant General the extra cost of the general must be purchased entirely from the original 400 army points not partially from the additional 20 points. Players may of course spend more than 20 points on stratagems but if they do the amount above the additional 20 must come from the original 400 army points. Players should indicate clearly on their army list the stratagems they are taking and the respective cost.
The usual Swiss Chess system will be used although I will endeavour to keep players from the same club apart if possible. The latest date for submission of army lists will be 2 weeks before the event - lists to me for checking please. Time of day and weather rules will be played unless players mutually agree otherwise before the start of their games.


The timings for the day are as follows:

 Venue opens 8.30

 1st game starts 9.00

 1st game finishes 12.15 (variable by 0-10 minutes)

 Lunch Break

 2nd game starts 1.15

 2nd game finishes 4.30 (variable by 0-10 minutes)

 
The entry cost will be £6.50, pay on the day.

Confirmation of entry will be by submission of your army list. However, it would be useful if players could indicate as soon as possible whether they intend to take part so I can get some idea of numbers in advance. For entries and other enquiries please contact Bill Skinner at  wski_99@yahoo.co.uk
