It was the annual York Wargames Society show, Vapnartak last Sunday, I went along with some chums and took some photos. Here is the report on my blog:

I would have liked to have seen the demo of the new PBI rules.

To all, the bottom of the blog post shows some coloured rubble for sake – I bought the red brick colour a few weeks ago and can recommend it.

Thanks Norm, I didn't watch the PBI demo for very long as I have never played the original game, but the board looked nice!

Thanks for the recommendation! It is really appreciated and I am glad you found the rubble useful!

Great report, although the 'Saga' game was an Arthurian Romano British v's Early Saxon bash using Dux Britanarrium rules and Curteys Miniatures figures and buildings.

Thanks Guys, Madmick, I apologise, I should have paid attention to the information on the table!

Good report! – I was sorry to miss this show, so its nice to get a taste of what was going on!

Abwehrschlacht04 Feb 2015 2:14 p.m. PST

I'm glad you liked it, Herkybird, Vapnartak is always worthwhile visiting, if you get a chance of course!

It was a good show. Some good looking games on view as well. Rather strangely I didn't actually see much I needed to buy.

It always a great day out though

I was the same Craig, I came away with very little. Maybe it's because I'm on a budget at the moment and I have pretty fixed ideas about what I need.

Great pics!

I've diverted folk via my blog to this page- hope you don't mind(?).

Darrell.

Thanks Atheling, not problem at all, let me know what your blog is and I shall add it to my blog roll and reading list!

To be honest I wanted 15mm Old Glory Blue Moon Austrian Napoleonics, 28mm British WWII and also some flecked dice. In fact ended only getting a start pack for Magic!!
