Way back in 2021 I wrote about how I use Twitter. I say way back because I'm using "technology time" which passes far quicker than real time. Needless to say, how I use it has changed significantly once again. I'm using Twitter less and using Mastodon more.
Introduction
Three weeks after my trip to York for "The King In The North", and three weeks closer to moving house, I ventured in to darkest
Manchester for the final round of the 2022 Northern League. It was my
last event before all my hobby stuff was packed away prior to the move.
I've played many a game at Eccles in the winter and Sunday was exactly what I expected: cold! I didn't take my padded gilet off all day. My feet got so cold I had to go for a walk between the second and final game just to warm them.
This post is slightly longer than my normal competition posts so it's split into sections so you can skip any boring bits.
Background
As I noted last month we're
trying to move house. Six
weeks on and we're almost at the stage where we can think about dates.
Please note the almost in the last sentence. In an attempt to
escape the stress I decided to enter the "King in the North" ADLG competition
organised by Macro Baroni ably assisted by Paul Dawson.
After entering I got cold feet. Why did I ever think entering my first two day competition, with no practice and little wargaming since July, was a stress free way to spend a weekend?
Here's the latest addition to my Arab Conquest army for Art de la Guerre (ADLG). It is the penultimate group of infantry in my army.
