Ok now that is awesome! I especially love the draws holding reserves. |

What the! Never seen that before. Wonder if they are making a go of it? And great spelling correction there – glad you're on the case, the world can sleep better knowing you're alert |

That is very nice. I think it might be too upscale for me. Having to wear a suit and tie. 🤔 I do like the look though. |

I wish had enough lack of scruples to get into the corporate training racket. |

Visited the gallery today. The table is amazing up close. About 3 metres (10 feet) diameter. Made of Tasmanian Oak mainly. Weighs in around 350 kg (750 lbs) when assembled. Infantry figures and mounted figures are 28mm; artillery looks about 18 mm; ships are hand made of balsa, tooth picks and cloth, and yet are quite lovely to behold; the capital figures are either hand-made or bought. It has three uses – corporate training; entertainment (complete with participants in period costumes); and school history education. Eight players. The game is a mix of role-play, traditional wargame and diplomacy. I'll try and get the photos up soon. Demo game Sunday, which is the last day. He is trying to find a venue to permanently display and use the table. So if you can help, contact him via the website above. Otherwise, he tells us that it's going into storage!!! |
