Inaugural DBMM Auckland Cup - Easter 2024 - posted by Andrew Bennetts, February 15

Inaugural DBMM Auckland Cup - Easter 2024
The Pukekohe Wargames Club will be hosting the inaugural DBMM Auckland Cup Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st March (Easter Saturday and Sunday).
This is NOT a competitive event but an opportunity to come and learn about the DBMM Ancient and Medieval Rules for massed battles.
The format on Saturday will be non-competitive informal games designed to help people learn and understand the DBMM system.
  • For players with some experience and their own armies, up to 3x240AP friendly games, either against someone of similar experience with a more experienced player as coach/umpire or against a more experienced player as a way to learn more about the system. 240AP games are about the same size as ADLG so if you have an ADLG army you'll almost certainly be able to use it for DBMM.
  • For players without their own army or with no experience of DBMM there will be the opportunity for smaller, 120 point games between historically matched pairs of armies. This level of game is similar in size to DBA and an excellent introduction to the DBMM mechanisms.
  • Games will mostly be in 28mm scale but if you have 15mm figures and want to use these, do let us know as 15mm opponents can be arranged
The format on Sunday will be one or more large multiplayer games with 3-4 players a side, where possible these will be historical matchups, possibly even recreations of famous battles.
Venue: Pukekohe Scout Hall, Edinburgh Street, Pukekohe. Cost will be $10 per day or $20 for the weekend

If you are interested in attending either or both days, please PM me for more details.

Brilliant. Alas I will be in the Tron throwing pointy sticks in the general direction of coloured paper and swearing quietly but sincerely.

John Way I'm keen but my army has come to a grinding halt since Christmas. I will not have any time to finish it until after Easter.

Top idea! As per John Way could people please tag potential interested parties. For example - Sean Winterbottom this could be an opportunity to put one of your 500 armies on the table....
