28th June Games

Thanks to Steve S and Dave K who ran a Mad Dogs with Guns gangster game for myself, Mark, Andy P, Steve H and Eddie last night. This was a straightforward, head on, kill 'em all scenario. Sadly, it was my side and my gang that got killed, but still an enjoyable evening. Rob and Alan were playing Infinity elsewhere in the Centre and I've included a picture of their game with one of ours.

We also have the ACW game on Saturday at Wayland. The tables are available from 11.00 am onwards, and I hope I'll see some of you on the day. 

Next week, I've asked Mark if he would run his Dungeon Crawl game for some nice, relaxing blood and thunder.

See yer soon,

21st June Games

We set out to play Wings of War WW1 aerial in a 'boisterous' Wayland Games Centre last night, using my collection. I felt it was time that the late war aircraft put in an appearance, so set up four Fokker DVII's against four Sopwith Snipes. Both types represent the best on offer in the closing months of the Great War. The ensuing fireball saw Steves S & H, Mark, Dave K, Eddie, Jack and myself suffer loss and inflict more of the same throughout, with the end result being a draw with four kills to each side. Great fun and good to see the game played again.

Next week Steve S will run a Mad Dogs with Guns game; I'd remind all members of Mike's planned ACW game on Saturday 1/7/23 from 11.00 am onwards. Those who have prepared troops for the game should contact Mike (by WhatsApp is best) with details so he can plan the scenario.

See yer soon,

Neil

14th June Games

It was good to get along to Hockley yesterday evening after the last two or three weeks' worth of domestic health issues involving my mother. I'm pleased to be able to confirm that she is recovering well, and she has asked me to pass on her thanks for all the good wishes from club members she has received. You are SUCH a bunch of softies...........

Meanwhile, back in the world of gaming, when you play Zombiecide softies end up as lunch! We played the scenario in question three times. The first went literally without a hitch and certain players were heard to mutter 'it was too easy'. Needless to say, the dice gods were listening, and the following two scenarios ended with our characters becoming a zombie hors d'oeuvre. I also found Rob and Alan playing the new Star Wars Shatterpoint game, which is a low level skirmish version of Legion. Pictures of the games are attached.

Next week, I've offered to run a WW1 aerial game using the Wings of War/Glory rules and miniatures. I have an idea for a game, but have yet to decide at what point in the Western Front aerial war to set it. This game will able to handle six players, so book earlier to avoid disappointment/BE2.

See yer soon
