Another brilliant Welsh Open. Such a competitive tournament and yet every single game was an absolute delight. Thanks to all my opponents!

Thanks to everyone involved in the organisation of the tournament. The YOBBL bois had a great time. My only suggestion for next year is to get some lube in to make it a little easier for us newer players!

Re: Welsh Open IX - 27th & 28th January 2018
Had an absolute blast despite a middling record (as per usual). Managed to avoid my normal Bristol coach nemeses, made up for by playing 3 of my fellow Welsh coaches instead! Thanks to Rabban, Hawca, Frogboy, Jbone, Thatasianguy and Angry Hobbit (sorry for the dicing Wayne!) for some cracking games. Already plotting my revenge, and teaching my Mummy's NOT to roll skulls all the time

A great experience, and a great collection of games and opponents. Thanks to everyone - it was even a lot of fun to play against a Bretonnian team. Especially as someone forgot to take any tackle...Twelfman

I think they learnt their lesson by our game. Still it was fun (mostly).nightwing wrote: (sorry for the dicing Wayne!), and teaching my Mummy's NOT to roll skulls all the time
Good food, great venue and all round brilliant event as ever. See you next year . (Give stunties a few more SPPs and I might consider bringing halflings back)

Re: Welsh Open IX - 27th & 28th January 2018
What are you trying to achieve with that? If its the proximity to the UKTC then they should move as this tournament is older, also that's miles away so if its because potentially more people would come then its far for them people to travel anyway so no guarantee they will travel even if its moved. Saying that i don't think moving a week to the right will make any difference.hawca wrote:might be considering 2&3rd Feb any thoughts?
BTW I liked the way the tables were organised, didn't go last year but much better than the previous times I've attended. More space is better. If it gets any bigger you'll have to look for a new venue, possibly? Or put Hawk on a diet wehey!! I made a funny

I'm a British Freebooter, will play for any team including Undead (I have my own Apothecary). Good rates.

Thanks for the game. Never met such a challenging opponent playing ogres. A nail biter right up to the final turn.malcbutch wrote:Having only done the NAF champs over the last few years I just wanted to say this was an excellent tournament.
I had a great time, met a lot of very nice people, all 6 games were fun and close.
A great weekend was topped off by winning the stunty cup
Thanks for a great weekend guys
