Hello everyone,

I hope this finds everyone well.
Schiltron 2021 was a great success in October, but for 2022 we are proposing that Schiltron moves back to it's traditional date towards the end of March.

The details

Dates and venue: 19th & 20th March 2022 at the Beancross & Newlands Community Centre, Montgomery Street, Grangemouth, Scotland FK3 8QR

http://www.falkirkwargamesclub.org.uk/FDWC_AboutUs.php

Maximum number of players: As many as want to play, it's a decent sized hall and we've got plenty of tables - Covid rules dependent (fingers crossed it's manageable by then).
Number of rounds: 5 games - 3 on the Saturday and 2 on the Sunday
Format: 200 points, single list
Scale: 15 mm
Theme: Biblical, any army from the Ancients section, that is armies 1-37. Any allies must come from this same section. No more than 3 of any army will be allowed, so lets see a bit of variety.

Special procedures: Version 4 of the rules, with any FAQs or Amendments issued prior to the dates.
1st round pairing: TBA
The cost will be £30, which will include lunch and tea/coffee and soft drinks on both days

If you need or want any further information, and any entries or expressions of interest to me at the following email address -

schiltronlists@gmail.com

Hope to see you there,

Cheers, Gary

Now we've got the very successful Scottish Open completed, it's time for an update on Schiltron.

Yesterday's reminder at Tradeston must have worked, as we've gone from 1 correct list submitted to 7.

To no-ones surprise, the Sargonid list is now sold out, and there's only 1 NKE left.

First correct list submitted bags it.

Lists are rolling in, sold out so far are -

no.9 Sargonid
no.37 Zhou/Spring and Autumn Chinese

9 different lists chosen in addition to the 2 sold out, so the hoped for variety is looking good.

Maybe this explains why I can't get a cheap hotel room for Schiltron

Hi Guys,

An update and final call for entries for Schiltron 2022.

There are a few people who intimated interest who have still to confirm they are attending. We are currently sitting at 28, so a bit of space left if anyone wants to join us.

I'd like army lists in by close of play on the 7th March please, to

schiltronlists@gmail.com

About 75% of lists have already been submitted correctly, which means the following armies are sold out - Sargonid; Neo-Babylonian; New Kingdom Egyptian; Mycenean and Zhou/S&A Chinese. There is 1 spot left for Vedic Indian.

Hope to see you soon,

Cheers, Gary
