DBMM 200 tournament - Posted by Neil Williamson 2 January 2019

Neil Williamson I don't know where my comment went.
Anyway as it was a hot day, 4 of us decided to sweat it out in the garage with a round robin DBMM200 tournament. We all won a "prize"
Gold - David McLachlan - Ptolomeic - 75pts

Silver - Neil Williamson - Hun - 35pts
Bronze - Jim Hoskin - MI Roman - 27pts
Wooden Spoon - Craig Mabon - Kushan - 13pts

Catering provided by Sheila Williamson Catering Enterprises

We played 240 pts on 6x4 table
Sorry about some fuzzy pics

Vincent Cholewa Many thanks for sharing. How did you find playing DBMM 200?

Neil Williamson Really good. We got 3 games in comfortably during the day, without the feeling of exhaustion at the end of it. The games didn't feel any different to me than a 400ap game, and still had all the tension and decisions. It still has the feel of a large battle. The smaller table was also a bonus to play on.
You have to watch your initial deployment so as not to march block yourself, and the flank area is small. Its a tough decision for some armies whether to go for 2 or 3 commands. To me these were the only noticeable differences.


Vincent Cholewa Neil Williamson glad to hear it went so well. I have played a few games of DBMM 200 and always enjoyed them 😊 🎲


Trying to keep out of the way of the rest

Hun v Roman. The Romans hid behind some pits and a wood leaving only one avenue of attack

There must be a way through somewhere


Hun v Kushan. Setting up for an attack on the left wing

These two mutually defeat each other on the last turn


No way in at all



Kushan v Romans


Ptolomeic castle v the Hun and say come and get me

Didn't work this time
