Historicon - Tony Bath Memorial BBDBA Championship

Hey all,

Thought I would enourage a little banter regarding BBDBA Doubles at Historicon, since it is only a couple of months away. It is scheduled for Friday July 21, 9AM-6PM.

Last year at Historicon, we had a fantastic turnout of 20 Teams for the Tony Bath event. I'm hoping for the same kind of turnout this year!

Please post here if you are planning to participate, if you are looking for another player to team up with, or if you just have something to comment...

Tentative participation list as of 5/20/06:

1) Chris Brantley and Jeff Caruso
2) David Kuijt and David Schlanger
3) Joe Collins and Ed Dillon
4) Roland Fricke and Jon Baldwin
5) Hank 'the Dread' Drapalski and Richard Wright


Just some of the many questions to ponder...

- What IS Chris Brantley and Jeff Caruso's "mystery" army?

- Can Larry and Rich make it two wins in a row, after storming to the doubles crown at Cold Wars?

- Will anybody take a wheelbarrow army?

Joe Collins and I plan to show up with another "lead with your chin" C-in-C. Who will be the first to trash our commanding general? We he be able to stand up to the Dreaded Drapalskis for more than 3 rounds? Stay tuned!

Roland Fricke and Jon Baldwin will be back to defend our....selves.

I am working on the army now and will post a picture of the General's figure : as soon as Chris has made the change over on Fanaticus.

Why would I give the secret army over to prying eyes?Because it is unstoppable.It suits our combined playing styles to a tee and automatically corrects for any generalship boo-boos.

Got stampeding cattle,flaming pigs, armored efellants with Howdy Doody in the howdah?Bring 'em on.Its just fresh meat for our army baby. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Heavy foot armies will not fare any better against us.We'll just be picking the armored bits out of our teeth.

Humbly yours,

Well, the army, which shall not be named ,is coming together and all that remains is to get the necessary customs paper work to get it into El Paso,Tx., from Chihuahau,Mx.Then of course, up to me in Denver, and off to the mold maker in Ohio, then back to me to paint it up.So,nothing to do now but kick back,chill out,open a brewski,and enjoy the thought of the Davids shopping for adult size Depends as the fear builds in them.

I assure you, I do not intend to strike fear in the hearts of those already committed to the BBDBA tournament, however, I do hereby announce that Richard B Wright and I will bring our armies to compete! (My son, who usually carries me in this event, will be in China this summer, so Rich has agreed to be the brains of the duo.)

Glad to hear you will be there, Hank! It wouldn't be the same without you.

Let's just hope we have tables and space to play!!
