How quickly should turns be played? I am very much interested, but I don't want to stall.
Ideally complete a game a week, as it is a competition, but obviously everyone has real life issues too. I'm terrible for this, so I won't sit in judgment! ::)

A game a week is something to aim for, and maybe sorted by arranging a time with your opponent to play several or all turns in one setting if time generally is at a premium.

As with all these things play it by ear. Some people will do quick returns, some not. If things become a problem, don't be silent, talk about it, we can usually find a solution. :)

On a good day, our legislature has the prestige of a drunk urinating on a wall at 4am and getting most of it on his shoe. On a good day  ::) Steelgrave

It's kind of silly to investigate whether or not a Clinton is lying. That's sort of like investigating why the sky is blue. Banzai_Cat

Hi all,

Paolo at Slitherine has kindly agreed to sponsor a FOG - Medieval competition to start on 4th February when the game is officially released.



Thanks for the support :) and I will play the tournament, so please sign me in!

Thanks Boggit.

If I still can I would like to sign up for this.
Kids are supposed to resume school next week, so I expect this will work out nicely.

I've emailed Paolo for the Steam keys, and will DM them hopefully later today as and when I get them.

@Gus - Are you in and do you need a Steam Key?

Feel free to post screenshots/AARS.

In the spirit of the "Colosseum" - just for fun, we must have bragging rights! >:D

All participants can add "Gladiator" to their Grogheads profile.

Draws allow you replace that with "Retiarius";

Battle winners can replace "Gladiator/Retiarius" with "Secutor", and if you make it to the semi finals you can replace "Secutor" with "Myrmidon";

Competition winners get the right to "Rudiarius" on their profile!

Give it a try. If you find it gets to be too much time for you, withdraw with honour and allow your opponent to get a win. At least you will have had some fun. :)

Do you have a copy of the game, if not I'll ask for another steam code? No problem there.

Nice! I see I start with 3 points off the bat! Not bad!

Now come get some!

Oh.. how does the sponsorship work? I need to install the game before I can play. I assume it'll be a timed license of sorts?
