It turns out we did actually play each other all the way back in World Cup 3.

Europa Brittania 1 - 0 Alasdair I Frosticus

Fancy that.

Now, let's be fair....

I'm the last person to have actually used dice to scorinate a WC; Europa Brittania had nothing to do with it.

Now get off my lawn.

So all the legends are coming back to the WC. Awesome.

One question though, is Europa Brittania in the rankings? And if they aren't could they be in the BoF?

They aren't listed on the BoF list, so they are eligible to enter BoF 52, unless they've entered one of the last 3 World Cups.

That's weird. Somehow three vintage nations from the Jolt era have returned. What kind of future is this? :blink:

Did you seriously have to ask that question?

For the record – all three who've returned are from BEFORE the Jolt era. Those were the days of shitty forums.
