Update: Levin DBMM competition, the Persian Empires and their enemies, July 19-20 - posted by Vince Cholewa, 2 July 2025

Here is what you will be playing for at the Levin DBMM Competition, July 19-20. The horse head trophy currently held by Keith Trye will go to the overall winner, along with specially brewed DBMM wine, and the finest liquorice from RJ's (the factory is around the corner from our venue, the Levin Cosmopolitan Club).

There will also be prizes for:

· First Persian

· First Enemy of Persia

· Second Enemy of Persia

· Best Army

· Best Baggage

· General Slayer

· Looter of Baggage

Currently registered are, in alphabetical order:

· Chris Blackler, Late Imperial Roman

· Alastair Duncan, batting order tbc

· Bruce Ferguson, Seleucid

· Richard Foster, Early Achaemenid Persian

· Paul Graham, Early Achaemenid Persian, Later Achaemenid Persian, Parthian, Sassanids

There is definitely room for more, including for those who might want to play only one day of the two or borrow an army (I have five armies that fit the theme, the Persian Empires and their Enemies, and am happy to lend them). Please spread the word and if others are interested tell them to get in touch with me.
