July 26 meeting

Yesterday's meeting had another good turn out with three tables being used for quick play fantasy rules Hordes of the Things, another for several Ancient and Medieval games using DBA, a 15mm Napoleonic game using Horse Foot and Guns, and a multiplayer 28mm Napoleonic game using Black Powder.  Many thanks to David who took the photos.

As I was not at the club I have created what I fear is an incomplete list of people who were there.At the club were James, Ed, David, Craig, Ross, Carl, Rex, Harley, Ceilidh, Neil, Peter, James, and Aidan.  I apologise if I have left anyone out.

Meeting Sunday July 12

It was great to see such a good turnout at the club this afternoon. We had four people playing a medieval game using the DBA quick play rules for Ancient and Medieval battles, another four playing Napoleonics using Black Powder, and two more played Marlburian using Horse Foot and Guns. Vince helped the new members learning DBA and Ed provided both the Anglo Saxon armies used. The young chaps playing were from Chanel College where Ed teaches. James came along to open up the hall and Jonathan dropped in to see what was happening. Callum brought along some of his 40K science fiction figures, Ross brought one of his Dystopian Wars Victorian science fiction fleets, and Vince brought some of his 25mm Ancients. Meanwhile Warren and Neil were in Palmerston North at Panzerschrek playing Flames of War World War 2 and Warhammer Fantasy, respectively.
