Today, at the Wellington Warlords - 18 Aril 2026

Roving Reporter, Alastair Duncan, was there! Alastair says:

Three DBMM games at this week’s Warlords’ meeting. Bruce Ferguson’s Seleucids saw off Paul Goldstone’s Polybians, despite heavy elephant and Galatian casualties.

Paul Grahams' Marian Romans, aided and abetted by Armenians, squared off against Raymond Dick’s polyglot Numidians with a record 42 light horse drawn from various collections and made up of Minifigs, Hinchcliffe,Old Glory, A&A, Warlord Games and even a Garrison figure.

Meanwhile, it only took Barry Norris' Vikings eight moves to carve their way through Alastair’s Picts. The longest part of the encounter was reportedly packing up!
