Just to let all the other Midlanders out there know we now have a new Saturday wargamers club near B'ham airport. The plan is to use the venue once a month, unless it gets busier of course, we will start at nine and finish at five, we use the St Thomas Moore church hall, Sheldon. No July because of other commitments.
The next game is an ECW, the Battle of Naseby in 28mm, and this will be the first Saturday in Aug, come along and try us, see what you think.

Special thanks to Peter for organising a really great day.

Just reminding people the first weekend in August is club day at St Thomas Moore church hall, Sheldon. link

Thanks to all who came to fight Naseby, a close run thing use Pike and Shot rules, a couple of tweaks and they would be a fair set. No up hill advantage(odd), units can disintegrate too quickly in the game turn one, which spoils it a bit, but otherwise ok.

A reminder of Saturdays 1940 Spearhead game, we will get a club website up and running shortly, TMP is good for us but we need to get organised.
