Theme
Armies must be selected from the following list:
Book 4, 13. MEDIEVAL GERMAN 1106 AD – 1519 AD 40 OR any army listed in the DBMM books as an enemy thereof
Book 3, 40. NORSE VIKING AND LEIDANG 790 AD -1280 AD OR any army listed in the DBMM books as an enemy thereof
This gives about 40+ separate choices. Allies specified in qualifying army lists may be used even if the ally would not itself qualify as an independent list. Normal date limitations for allies will apply.
Teams wishing to play but who do not have access to a qualifying army should ask around to borrow one – I have one or two, I am sure others will have more. In extremis and if no suitable army can be found by a team (as I say, please ask around by email first and include me on the email, I may be able to help), feel free to suggest an alternative list that is:
In one of the two periods noted above
Is European
Broadly fits in with the wider theme
Agreement will be down to the discretion of John and me.
