All, the Baton Rouge Society of Miniatures Games is proud to announce the 34th annual Norbert Gisclair Memorial Miniatures Tournament. Our featured event this year is a four-round SAGA tournament (bring 6pts, play with 4pts). There will be prizes from Gripping Beast and Architects of War awarded for first place, best-painted army and sportsmanship! A few armies can be provided for new players on a first come, first served basis so show up early if you want to try your hand leading a Viking raiding party or Norman warband. Details are provided below: Date: October 6, 2012
Location: All Star Lanes, 9829 Airline Highway (just north of I-12), Baton Rouge, LA
Cost: $5 USD for all day SAGA registration and rules explanation will begin in 8:30am with the first round to begin at 10am. The final round to start at 2pm. A non-scored "feast for crows" multi-player game will begin at 7pm. An 800pt FOG tournament will also take place. Please email captcouv [at] cox [dot] net for more information. |

This is a shameless attempt to get this thread back up to the top of the board. The tournament is next Saturday! Hope to see you there! Billy Yank |

Just heard through another board that the FOG tourney had to be cancelled due to lack of entries. Hopefully the SAGA event will come off well. These are good folks and always put on a good show with great local eats and entertainment. I used to attend the NGMT back in the "olden times" when Lee Miller, Ed Mills and company were involved playing WRG 6th and holding it on campus. As I said, great event, great town, and great folks. I don't play either SAGA or FOG or I'd try to run over from Texas. Wish I'd seen this sooner for a "bump" Bill

Any chance future "Norberts" could include DBA3.0 Big Battle? We are hoping to make it the "new" DBM. On the other hand won't mind giving SAGA a try. I quit doing SE tournaments when FOG replaced DBM. Wouldn't mind getting back into the scene. TomT |

Thanks for the interest guys. The SAGA tournament went great (except for the fact that my Normans got pummeled). We had twelve players. Lee Miller is still going strong… in fact he officiated the SAGA tournament. There was also a demo Dux Bellorum game and a couple of board games going at the same time. I don't see why we couldn't do some DBA. I know virtually all of the "regulars" have DBA armies. My Marian Romans could use a workout! Billy Yank |
