A bunch of The Old Guard were at Hammerhead yesterday , enjoying a show with a good atmosphere and decent shopping too. MartinC , JamesM and I had travelled on Friday to make a weekend of it , Pete and John joined us early on Saturday.We spent Friday night over beer and curry chatting through some future planned games , and then looking at a combined project. This will be 1967 Arab Israeli war done in 3mm over a very large table so we will do big battles on a larger scale .
James took time to go round and take pictures of all the games which he has
posted here. There were some good looking games. Martins write up i
s here
We played 7 games of our Pulp game - Pyramid of Doom. Most of the participants were young future gamers who had a good time charging around. The mission was accomplished on all games .
We had a lot of positive comments re how good the table looked , which was good. its always one of our criteria for a good game.
