Saturday:
4 PM – 11 PM
Chariot Supremacy!
A Triumph! Campaign Theme Event
Rules: TRIUMPH!
15mm, 4+ rounds, 24 total players
Massed levies huddle; linen-armored warriors swing bronze sickle-swords as chariot-riding nobles in gilded armor hurtle across the battlefield, their composite bows sending arrows that slay like darts from Apep himself.
Be Thutmosis IV, greatest warrior-pharoah of Egypt, or Ramses the Great, who got his butt kicked at Qadesh and rewrote history to make it a great victory. Be Muwatalli fighting Ramses, or Suppiluliuma conquering the Mitanni. It is the era of Chariot Supremacy. Mighty God-Kings send their chariot arrays sweeping across the plain, striking terror into the foe. Surely warfare will never be more advanced!
Plus, things are turning to crap.
Loaner armies available for players with PEL tickets, those PEL slots are intended for newbies. Otherwise, please pre-register online on the TRIUMPH forum where specific army lists for the campaign are listed:
http://forum.wgcwar.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&p=1774#p1774 to have us hold your space (up to 24 players total between PEL tickets and advance signups).
Participating Armies:
• Early Nine Bows Libyan
• Syro-Canaanite or Ugaritic (no Medjergelem Guard for Ugarit)
• Mitanni
• Middle Assyrian (no Bad Horse or Horde)
• Kassite and Later Babylonian (this is the Kassite Kingdom of Babylon) (no Bad Horse)
• Amurru and Early Aramaean (no Skirmishing Bowmen)
• Midianites and Early Arab (1-2 armies)
• Middle Elam (Kingdom of Elam)
• Early New Kingdom Egyptian
• Viceroys of Kush
• Minoan and Early Mycenaean
• Hittite Empire
• Various Wild Tribes:
o Gasgans
o Zagros or Anatolian Highlanders
o Kassites, Hurrians, or Nairi
o Dorians (use Urnfield Culture North Europe)
This event involves multiple battles (four or five) with different opponents using the Triumph! fast play rules sets. New players are strongly encouraged to attend our Epic Conflicts walk-up teaching events running in the morning both Friday and Saturday. The rules are quick to learn, but you’ll enjoy the campaign better if you get a few quick practice games in beforehand! Anyone under 15 must be accompanied by an adult; the campaigns usually run until 10pm or later, so keep that in mind when signing up.
