WADBAG Battle Report:
The Baltic Crusades
A Scenarios DBA Event

at Historicon 2007

[Highlights] [ Results]

WADBAG's David Schlanger and David Kuijt ran their Baltic Crusades DBA Scenarios event as part of the DBA schedule of events at Historicon 2007 (July 26-29, 2007) at Lancaster, PA.

16 total players were divided evenly into four groups - two Crusader groups and two Pagan groups. Each player competed against the others in his group and played through each of four historical scenarios against four different players from an opposing group.

Final Results

Pagans	Score	Crusaders	Score
Hank Drapalski	91	Martin Schmidt	73
Mark Pozniak	71	Jason Bostwick	67
David Bostwick	58	Bill Fisher	66
Dave Reynolds	49	Alex Bostwick	49
Tony Aguilar	47	Eric Freiwald	33
Doug Austin	37	Mike Porter	31
Alex Halkiadakis	32	Brendan Sanders	25
Ron Giampapa	5	Mike O'Neil	5

Congratulations to Hank Drapalski the Pagan Overlord (Top Pagan Player) and Martin Schmidt the Hochmeister of the Order (Top Crusader Player)! Thanks to all of the participants.

Battle Scenario Results

Scenario	Battle	Pagan Points	Crusader Points
Scenario 1	Siauliai	92	79
Scenario 2	Prussia	55	122
Scenario 3	Leignitz	140	53
Scenario 4	Peipus	103	95

We had very interesting battle results this time with two scenarios being very closely fought and two scenarios dominated by one side or the other. Despite the narrow Pagan victory at Lake Peipus, it should be noted that Alexander Nevski was killed in battle 25% of the time.

If interested, please see the Baltic Crusades at Fall In! 2005 - a battle report for the first time these scenarios were played.
