16th March Games

Greetings

Last night; Steve S ran a Warzone test game which has generated sufficient interest for those participating to consider either increasing their existing forces or investing in troops for the first time.

I ran a Star Wars X-Wing game at the request of Andy P. Mark came out on top by destroying the opposition using, respectively TIE interceptors and X-Wings in the two games we were able to fit into the evening.

Next week Flames of War has been scheduled and Mark has promised to bring his SWAT game for Variety.

9th March Games

Greetings

My thanks to Mark for running a trial game for his Retro Raygun project yesterday evening. As the game implies, the game reflects sci-fi as it was viewed back in the 1930's, see Flash Gordon and E.E. Doc Smith for inspiration.

'Gordon's alive . . . ..' :-D

Next week's planned games include Warzone and Star Wars X-Wing.

2rnd March Games

Greetings

My thanks to Dave K for running his WW2 vintage zombie game this week. Good fun as always, the survivors were well on the way to achieving their objective by close of play.



Next week we have something of an embaressment of riches to hand. Steve S has a new fantasy siege board game to trial, Mark has been working on a pulp style, science fiction game he wishes to test and the delayed Flames of War game is still out there. I'll bring The Hobbit board game in case this doesn't come to fruition.

See yer soon

24th February Games

Greetings

Fair turnout this week - Steve S and Andy P played Monster Apocalypse, which they appeared satisfied with. I ran a Napoleonic Naval game for the remainder of those present. This turned into a hard-fought action, with the French coming out on top at close of play, having forced two British ships to strike as distinct from one of their own; this could have changed radically had there been time for another turn, however.

Next Wednesday; Dave K has offered to run his Zombie Apocalypse game, while Steve S, Alan and Josh have decided to run a Flames of War game.

17th February Games

Greetings

Low turnout last night; Thankfully Dave Knightly brought his 'Last Night On Earth' zombie board game which was more than sufficient for those in attendance.

Next week Steve S, and sundry others, will be playing Monster Apocolypse, whilst I have been asked to run a Napoleonic Naval game.

See yer soon

10th February Games

Greetings

A decent turnout last night; Chris ran an early WW2 Bolt Action game for Alan, Dave K, Josh, John and Mark.


Steve S ran a Heroscape game with Andy P, while Steve H and I indulged in Angels 20 using Italian and R.A.F over Malta.

Next week; I will run Angels 20 again and I understand a zombie game has also been planned.

See yer soon
