2024 Ladder Awards !

**Mr Grumpy** · 01-01-2025, 03:50 AM,

Its that time of year to recognise our ladder leaders from 2024, there are two medals to be awarded, firstly for the highest points total on the ladder in the last year and secondly for the ELO champion.*

For the first time in many years the same player has scooped both awards, last year Steel God came third in the points list and had the top ELO rating, this year he goes one better and wins both categories, congratulations on a clean sweep!! Respect3

A top score of 1244 points............

Well done Paul, and the entire crew.

Happy New Year

Thank you gentlemen. Never had the time to play so many large scenarios “back in the day”, so I’m definitely enjoying retirement and the time it affords me. Had a lot of good battles in 2024, but by far it was the new friends I encountered on the digital battlefield that made 2024 special; some old grognards such as myself who have traveled similar paths, and some younger than the youngest of my 4 children but as alike in mind and passions as any two people can be. Thank you to all with whom I have crossed swords in 2024.

Good luck and good gaming in 2025

Its great to hear this hobby brings so much pleasure, that's why this club has been around since 1999.

If there are no disasters between now and May I will be joining you in the retirement club, then I will be able to pick this hobby up again..........
