I am late on posting a Side Duel update, for which I apologize. I've been laid low for two weeks with a nasty cold (my wife suspects it was COVID) which has also kept me from the painting table. We've had plenty of movement on the Side Duel Leader Boards as shown below, with a couple of the Duels looking like real horse races.
First up an updated pie chart of activity.
SD1 (Moose and ) Squirrel Duel
GeoffT bagged a large number of squirrels right at the start but seems to be running out of things to chase as his pace has slowed down considerably. Meanwhile Curt and KerryT are making up ground on him. Sadly, no-one has contributed a moose to the score....

SD2 30K Heresies
We have a minor heresy going on with the leader board, as Curt has passed GregB in 30K posts! The expected rout is a real horse race with PeterA also insight of the leaders.

| Curt | 130 |

SD3 Skulls
Scoring is pure head count (pun intended). This one will be adjudicated by Barks.

I will leave skull tallies to our resident Post-Mortem Phrenologist.

SD4 Mech Madness
Apparently we duellists have found some Winter Grade lubricants and got their Mechs moving. It's TomL clanking into the lead, with Curt following. Where is DavidB in the madness?

SD6 Napoleonics
It turns out that RayR can be trained to follow admin rules, as he's successfully filled in Side Duel forms for 6 posts and has charged up the leader board. But it's LeeH in front and MattW is following up to take advantage when Lee or Ray falters. I expect this one will be a close run thing this the end. Watch out for when KerryT turns his brushes to Napoloeonics.

SD7 Can Opener
As suspected January bills have come it and it's off to the larder to open a can of SPAM for supper. Both KerryT and Curt need to make runs to the recycling depot and Barks has also used his kitchen appliance.

SD8 Retreat from Moscow
This is essentially a repeat of the top two positions from the Napoleonic Side Duel. RayH has recovered from dysentery, rested his oxen and found his way back onto the trail...sorry that's the Oregon Trail party I've been playing on my iPad....but you get the idea.

SD9 Colonial Wars
The scramble for Africa and other parts has barely begun.
