25th September Games

Greetings

We were very thin on the ground last night, but were able to run two games.  Steve S and Dave K played Space Hulk, whilst I hosted a trial game of Mortal Gods (the Ancient Greek skirmish game from Footsore) for Mike and Steve B. This proved interesting despite a lack of familiarity with the rules as I haven't had much time to study them due to the domestic situation as you are all aware. Suffice to say we'll play this game again soon.

Thanks also to Mike for the two model ships from his copy of Wargames Illustrated - I'll pick up my own copy shortly. Any other models would be appreciated but not required.

Next week, we've planned a Terminator game as a test run before we present it at SELWG on 20/10/19.

See yer soon

18th September Games

Greetings

Firstly, my thanks to all those who expressed sympathy or sent cards following my father's recent demise; this was much appreciated by my family, who have asked me to pass on their thanks.

Nice to get back to some gaming this week. Steve S and Dave K played Doom, whilst Mike and I ran a Lion Rampant game for the Dark Ages  together with Steves H and B. Predictably, my warlord was killed and this put a dampener on the game. . .

 


 

Next week, I'll bring Battle Cry and Battleships Galaxies as we are likely to be low on numbers again.

Finally I note that Wargames Illustrated will be giving away some of the new models for the Warlord Game's Black Sails game in their next issue; if anybody doesn't want their models then I'd like first refusal as they look rather nice and I have an idea for their use. Also 29/9/19 is the Essex Warrior's Open Day at Writtle. I'll be running a Bronze Age Lion Rampant game there but this is always a good day out.

See yer soon

Neil
