Searched the archives with no answer, so: according to the BTZS paper and film matching, what would be a good film to go with my favorite paper, Ilford MG WarmTone? If it helps, I am experimenting with both Barry Thornton Two Bath and Pyrocat-HD.

Someone has this information on the tip of their cerebellum. Thanks in advance.

I've processed FP4, HP5 and Tri-X320 using a Pyrocat Divided schematic with BTZS-type tubes and all three films print wonderfully on Ilford's Warmtone paper. As long as you're developing your film to the appropriate contrast index for what you're looking to achieve, I don't think you can go wrong with most films. It's really a matter of end game and personal preference.
