A Burn of Byzantines
Dennis Shorthouse, Proprietor of On Military Matters book service, has organized an impromptu tournament using a battle grid system of his devising. All figures are place on a grid so players can play over a telephone without a video component.
The board is 15 by 20 UD's. The rows are labeled H – A. Each side has their own H-B, and the A row is divided in half. The columns are numbered 1-20. Terrain sizes are 2x3.
In it's first outing, it's Byzantines vs Samurai, titled A Burn of Byzantines. You'll get the joke later :)

Nice AAR – also good to see those Samurai are not invincible! |

Also the meme is USA Specific, and may not translate to our brothers in the UK. |

This meme has spread far and wide. I see it all the time and I'm in New Zealand. Such is the, er, beauty, of mass electronic communication :-) Cheers,
