Paris Leg of the 2019 GBnUIT HOTT Tournament

The army of the Human Kingdom





The army of Mythological Japanese



And here’s a picture of the Invisible army.



Best army GBnUIT

Jean Pierre Rivière with his “Anti-Greta” army won the competition of the best themed army. He did recycle toys of his youth in a stunning HOTT army which easily won the vote competition. Anti-Greta is an army solely made of evil polluters emitting huge quantities of CO2 and toxic particles and phenolic gases! This is their aim in life and great is their joy at being so good at it! But scaring Greta is only an amusement. The real business is slaying foes. Unfortunately, on the battle field, its lack of bad going troops did cause him a few problems, but nevertheless, well done Jean Pierre ! I am not sure whether the poor Grata Thurnberg would appreciate his highly polluting army….  His composition was :







• 1 General Rider

• 3 Artillery

• 4 Rider

• 1 Airboat

• 2 Hordes



Best stronghold GBnUIT

Thomas Martin with the fortress of his “Mythological Japanese” army painted in 1970’s style won the competition of the best themed fortress.







As I am posting this on behalf of the Paris team, I want to share that Claude and his team joined the tournament this year, and have already been a great addition to the tournament. As I do every year with this event I cannot help but be amazed at just how creative the players around the world can be. I genuinely love seeing the players, the various armies and the games. For me at least it makes the world just a tad bit smaller, and form experience I can tell you, that one can go to another place, city, country and sit down to enjoy a game of HOTT. And that, is the purpose of this tournament – to share a common pleasure, with people of different languages, and even those who drive on the wrong side of the road….sorry couldn’t help myself.
