Great idea. Given Stephen's impact on MOAB over the years maybe an award in his name next and it being a perpetual award?

Saw a note on another forum that the registration is going to open again soon, and there is limited space left. So their message was get in quick because all tournaments are striving for the final spots.

I still recall the first day I went to his place to meet up. I thought I really understood DBA and he totally dismantled me in that game....of course that wasn't the last time he handed me a DBA style beating.

Bloody hell. I was only talking about him at MOAB on the weekend and got to wondering what he was up to, as he really took me in and taught me a lot about DBA. Very sad.

I like the idea of an army with Horde in it.

a 3d printer is particulary useful for camp and BUA! - Snipped images - i also made some desert small village and a medieval one (painting in progress!) for villages, City and Castle, i finally choose 6mm scale, like that BUA don't take too much space on the field! it's not fast (3d printer are not fast), but the only limit is your imagination! welcome to another time consuming passion! Where did you get some of those files?

Hi all, I just got my first 3D printer for my birthday, and am keen to try out building some terrain for my various war games. Does anyone have experience 3D printing anything for DBA? Any tips you might have for me? Good sources of models for printing? What make/model of 3D printer did you go for? I got a Flashforge Finder.

I lost track of the substance of this thread. The rule for Arable terrain is either a BUA or 2 Plough but not both. This was never written by Phil. "Or" means one thing and _not_ the other. I wrote to Sue about this a while back. I accept her stance on this =================== Compulsory is either 1 BUA or 2 Plough, not both. However more plough is allowed under the optional terrain so he can have a BUA as the compulsory and the 2 plough as optional if he wants this. Sue From: Robert Beattie Sent: Friday, May 03, 2019 7:13 PM To: Sue Laflin Subject: Arable topography Hi, I know Phil is not answering hard questions for DBA, but perhaps he can review a very simple one. ARABLE 1 BUA or 2 Plough. River, Difficult Hills, Gentle Hills, Woods, extra Plough, Enclosures, Road, Waterway, Scrub, Boggy. One player insists that 1 BUA or 2 Plough really means you can take 1 BUA and 2 Plough. This is such a small issue but it is developing into a serious debate. Does Phil mean "EITHER 1 BUA or 2 Plough” or does he mean “1 BUA and/or 2 Plough" Thanks much, keep in touch. Bob Robert Beattie Hi Bob. I do believe you! But looking at Sue's reply it reads as though I can take a BUA as the compulsory choice and Plough as an optional choice. Does that mean we can forget the word "extra" in front of Plough? Cheers Jim That appears to be the case. All of the options discussed require a change to the words. This seems to be the least change from the rules as written - removing an unnecessary word, as opposed to adding new words.

I would choose 5 from the same region era - classic matched pairs.
Personally I love Dark Age Britain so it would be: III/19a Welsh, III/40a Vikings, II/81d - Sub Roman British, III/24a or b Middle Anglo Saxons, II68b Pictish
