Sorry it took me so long to say hi ~ with the boom of FB groups I sometimes forget about the blogs. :P<br /><br />Thanks for the awesome write up and photos. Having YOU come to this event is always great company buddy.- high five!<br /><br />I will be taking a look at the A&A book soon. I'm not ruling it out of the big event. I just need to step back a bit and get and eagles eye on it. <br /><br />Thanks again to everyone who came and made this the best Saga tourney state side.<br /><br />Skol!Eric Hagenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16513874819553468578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227525544754109991.post-55890116744502107742017-04-06T14:35:27.927-05:002017-04-06T14:35:27.927-05:00I hope so too as I plan to paint up and play a cou...I hope so too as I plan to paint up and play a couple of A&A factions. I know Eric gets an earful from players on the event. Some people don't think C&C and Dark Age factions mix well. I disagree quite strongly. If you have an opinion, I know he listens and responds to emails. So let him know before other people win the day. ;-) <br />Montyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094254709103687259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227525544754109991.post-69064835508151521862017-04-05T14:58:39.528-05:002017-04-05T14:58:39.528-05:00Monty, it was great meeting you.

Have you heard anything about this?<br /><br />I haven't played with or against an A&A warband, so I can't say how well they match up, but it would be nice if they could play in the Grand Melee.<br />Koyotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09710145937927191137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227525544754109991.post-3566355860670958412017-04-04T20:13:58.725-05:002017-04-04T20:13:58.725-05:00Darn it!
