Sheba and her Gladiator.
Why Sheba? Is Zenobia not as catchy?

River Song in Dr. Who.
One of the lost episodes.
I think she got caught in a time warp as Boudicca

Neil Williamson absolutely! And Sophia Loren was also in El Cid, in which she was the top paid actor, more than Charlton Heston.

Gavin Dodd I have two armies for the theme that I am happy for people to use, Early Imperial Roman and Thracians.
I will post more about the rules of engagement later and they will be similar to last year 😊

Andrew Bennetts great to have playing 😊


W.J. Watts
I'm going for the bonus prize of 1st entry 🙂 Leave booked, army selected, 400AP Order of Battle designed and additional figures dug out of bits boxes, assembled & undercoated. Will need a few more figures so will order them this week once credit card has been paid (and wife not watching). Looking forward to it having missed the inaugural event last year. Wayne
