Lion Rampant Tourny at Havoc XL
Hello folks!
2nd email newsletter this month, and its Focus is on the 2026 HAVOC convention …
Havoc is this upcoming weekend and scheduled for Fri March 27th, Sat March 28th, and Sun March 29th … and the convention is located at the Best Western Royal Plaza Hotel, 181 Boston Post Road in Marlborough MA.
Entry Fee for the the full weekend is $50 USD, and for Sunday only … $20 USD at the door … which means if a person only has the time to participate on Sunday for the Lion Rampant Tourney that starts at 10am, then you can!
Also … tourney prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will be a pick from 6 different boxes of medieval era miniatures, including … Wargames Atlantic's Foot Sergeants, or any of Fire Forge's Western Army Mounted Sergeants, Military Orders Turcoples, Western Army Archers, Russian Infantry, or Gripping Beast's Arab Light Cav/Horse Archers.
The tourney uses Swiss System for the pairings across 3 rounds at 10am, 12:30, 3pm, each being 2 hrs and a half hour in between rounds, 6 possible tables, scenery provided, Scenario 1 with 24 point army lists from back of 2nd edition rules. Bring your own army or 6 loaner armies are "first come, first serve" or email gamespoet@aol.com. Beginners ok, under 12 with adult. Remember … STARTS SUNDAY 10AM!
So far, I've heard from a total of 3 persons planning to attend for just Sunday's friendly tourney, and as long as there is an odd number, then I will join in as well. 4 of us is enough for all to play someone different each round, although we'd love to have more players, and hope others like yourself can join us for the fun.
Besides the tourney, other Lion Rampant games or those using rules by the same author are …
