24th September Games

Tonight was a busy night at club, with three games being run.

First up is Chris and Dave's, mismatched HoTTs game.

Second is Neil's group participation game of ACW Ironclads in anticipation of the Essex Warrior's show on Sunday. It looked like this game went down really well.

Last up is my impromptu teaching game of Saga for one of our newer members, Paul. He mentioned he was thinking about getting involved and I just happened to have my figures on me.

2nd July Games

A fair turnout this week; Chris and Alan fought a SAGA game, Mike and I explored Memoir 44 for the first time in a long while, while Steve H ran a board games called (I think...) Dungeon for the remainder present.

Thus far, next week has Mark's SWAT game lined up, while Steve S will bring a selection of other games for good measure; my presence due to work commitments is uncertain, but the following week I will run a Napoleonic naval game for those interested.

See yer soon,
Neil.

25th June Games

Thanks to Mike for running a SAGA game for my benefit last Wednesday; this means I will be starting work on Anglo-Saxons sooner rather than later! Chris and Dave Kightly played two HoTTs games while Steve ran a Doom game for Laurie and Alan.

This coming Wednesday I will bring Memoir 44, and Chris is considering a further SAGA game with Alan. Nothing else arranged at present, but other offers welcomed.

See yer soon,
Neil.

11th June Games

Fair turnout this week. Alan and Mike had a Saga game on the go, while I ran 'The Hobbit - an unexpected journey' boardgame for everybody else. This turned out to be a very good club night game, which those playing picked up quickly. One for the future I think.

Next week looks to be board game oriented. Dave Kightly is bringing Battlestar Galactica, Steve Slater will bring Doom (another club night classic) and I will bring Battle Cry.

See yer soon,
Neil.

14th May Games

Busy night this Wednesday - two SAGA games for the first time in the club proved very interesting. Both ended with the demise of the Viking warlords, but proved the basic game works well. Steve H ran a boardgame for the benefit of the remaining attendees; my thanks to him and all those who provided figures for the SAGA games.

Next week will probably feature further SAGA games; I have a boardgame based on the first Hobbit film which I shall bring along, but would welcome any other offers of a game.

See yer soon,
Neil.
