Huge thank you to Simon for once again organising a splendid day of entertainment in glorious Derbyshire. Good to meet up with DBA friends from across Europe. An interesting selection of armies to fight with making for some dangerous games. Congratulations to Mark ' King in the north' Johnson, for keeping southerners at bay. I did hear ( and this may be slander but it was from from a close family member ) that Mark's victorious army was only his third choice army on the day. The previous two armies he selected were not actually on the list! An easy mistake to make I'm sure as there were only sixty or so to chose from. Certainly Libyans not an obvious competition winning army, but this is now the second Bakwell tournament in a row where Lybians have featured at the top. Just a thought...are we seeing a renaissance of the infantry army? They did feature quite strongly in Wales this year. Yes like Martin M I didn't read the instructions properly and forgot all about the historical time limit, so the first Early Libyan army was out, as was the army I'd brought in case anyone else needed one, (Trojans). Fortunately the trusty Libyans have been making a nuisance of themselves for long periods of history so with a bit of element juggling about I manged to form a legal army, which surprised everyone, including me! At least Martin and I won't have the same problem at Newark!
