24th August Games

Greetings

A better turnout this week; thanks to John for running a Rapid Fire early WW2 game. A lively game, in which the German forces just shaded a win - if I have the objectves right!

Next week we have a Retro Raygun sci-fi game and a Battle Cry ACW lined up.

A reminder that Laurie's funeral is to be held this Friday 28/06/16 at the Bowers Gifford Crematorium at 3.20pm. I gather that a number of members will be attending to give our old friend a good send off.

See you there

17th August Games

Greetings

Another quiet evening when a whole bunch of paper pirate ships were sorted out pending redistribution, followed by a game of Settlers of Catan. Things are a bit muted at present with the dates of Laurie Bryson's funeral getting ever closer, but we will be present on the day to see an old friend off in the best way we can.

Prior to that, next week's games have been arranged as an early WW2 Rapid Fire game in 15mm, and I will bring the Airfix WW2 board game as a backup.

See yer soon

10th August Games

Greetings

Still thin on the ground, although Josh has returned from holiday, and ran a Force on Force game in association with Steve S.



I believe a massive sort out of the Pirates of the Crimson Coast has been arranged for next week (a large batch has been supplied by Dave Crook), so I'll bring a couple of games which we can fit in.

In the background, I have been working on some ships for the new Poseidon's Warriors ancient naval game. I've more or less finished the first batch, and will bring these to the club next week to illustrate progress.

See yer soon

3rd August Games

Greetings

Still thin on the ground due to holidays etc and no further news concerning Laurie's funeral.

We were able to run Andy Hunt's Song of blades and Heroes game, in which the heroes went to zeroes in very short order!.



Steve S played a board game called Small World with Andy P.

I understand a Force on Force game has been arranged for next week, but we have no other firm plans at this stage. I can provide the following for members and offer the choice to you:

  • Space Hulk
  • Napoleonic Naval
  • Pre-dreadnoughts
  • Dark Ages Lion Rampant
  • Angels 20
Let me know if any of the above appeal - can't say I don't give you a choice!

Neil
