Once again Xin, very nice and much appreciated.

Great stuff--thanks again for sharing!

Dervel Fezian18 Jul 2015 6:19 a.m. PST

Yes, thanks for sharing…. by the way how is the noise level?

Xintao18 Jul 2015 6:24 a.m. PST

It's loud, no question. On Thursday when I first walked in, I was struck at how loud it was. On Friday I didn't even think about it. I guess we adjust.

Of course, I work 8 hours a day inside a huge data center with 100's of servers and dozens of air handlers, so my tolerance for noise is more than most people.

Wonderful and thanks for letting us live vicariously through the photos. Wish I was there. Ah well hopefully next year.

Wow. If you consider it loud in comparison to a data center, then it's LOUD!!

Thanks for the convention photo journal. I'm am pretty much an armchair-solo-gamer these days; and this post is my gaming pep pill for the day.

Like the pictures. Great to see By Fire and Sword getting some face time. Also interest in Across a Deadly Field.

What was the name of the Petite Armee game?

Good to see the By Fire and Sword game on your log, too!

I can tell this isn't a UK show. Not a last valley tree in sight …

What is a last valley tree?

"Not a last valley tree in sight …"

Is that like saying something is the pants?? (The pants is my favorite phrase!)

BTW thanks for the pics. I was going to come, even got off work, but just couldn't make the drive. I haven't been feeling well this week. :-(

I would love to make it to some of these big conventions in the States and the UK – one day. Thanks for the update.

coopman18 Jul 2015 5:42 p.m. PST

Thanks for the pics.

I believe Last Valley makes trees for the wargaming table. I am guessing from the above that they are very popular with clubs and individuals in the UK, and thus common at shows.

Thanks for sharing your photos. There are some nice looking games!
