The Slammers and the Thunderbolts
Adam and Ben from 4Ground approached me after Salute 2015 and started to discuss a Slammers game for the following year at the show. I won't be able to, I said, but I know a man who can!
Matt Hay of the Wessex Wyverns put a team together and with some new vehicles supplied by Ainsty Castings link and some brilliant scenery by 4 Ground, this is what they came up with.
Most of the photos were taken by Matt with just a few by me as I walked past and gawped but have a look around what a great game they put on.
I wish I could have played! John Treadaway link |

Sparks, you should take a look at Hammers Slammers – a great game for treadheads. Great work, and I'm not ashamed to say that again here. |

Awesome looking game… As usual! Question about the highway signs… Are they 15mm ones (which I can't find on 4Ground webstore? Or are they the 10mm ones working fine with 15mm minis? |

@ Trojan – They are 15mm. Not sure it's all up on there site yet. @ Baldlee I nearly got you to play :) @ Every one thanks. It was a long day but was a cracking. Thanks again to John for arranging :) Cheers Matt |

Everyone: glad you enjoyed it. Matt – (without this sounding like a 'love in') thanks for stepping up and getting the pics to me. What have you got planned for Bovington this year, Matt? John T |

Every one involved – 4ground, Ainsty and Matt and his team – did a great job, TK 421. I know I said it before but I just wish I could have played! John T |
