Players to arrive at 09:00 am for a 9:30 start to the games.

The rules to be used are L’art de la guerre Fourth Edition 2021.

The theme for this round is Dark Age and Feudal. you may use any army valid between 494 AD - 1329AD (No Heavy Knight or Foot Knights Allowed).

Any allies used must also be valid within these dates.

If you would like to play but don’t have a suitable army please get in touch as I will probably be able to lend you one.

Army Lists should be sent to Mick Hood (mh014c5606@gmail.com) two weeks before the event.

The venue has tea and coffee making facilities and there are shops/cafes nearby.


The Northern League is a series of one day competitions consisting of 5 rounds. Each is a separate event, so players my enter as many or few events as they wish. However, there is also an overall championship, for which up to four of each player's scores will be counted. The cost of each round is £5 per player. This is a Singles competition, but players may enter as a pair if they wish.

New players are always welcome.

This event will consist of 3 games of 2.25 - 2.5 hours.

First game draws for this round will be based on current overall position, with the proviso that nobody will be drawn against anyone they played in the previous round. Players who did not play in the previous round will be added to the draw at the bottom based on army dates. The second and third game draws will be done using the normal Swiss system. I will try to avoid intra-club matchups where possible. Scoring will be the standard method from the ADLG website and the event's results will be submitted for UK and International rankings.

It is highly likely that I will not be able to attend this round. I will advise nearer the time who will be looking after the draws etc on the day.

This is your reminder that anyone who wants to play in this round shoud send army lists to Mick (mh014c5606@gmail.com) by this weekend, 5th May.

I am unable to attend so Paul Johnstone has kindly volunteered to manage arrangements on the day.
