Our club are presenting a participation game on november 5th at Crisis 2016 in Antwerp.
tsoa.be/crisis_general.html
It is a 15mm game set in northern Rhovanion in the year 1966 of the Third Age of Tolkiens Middle Earth.
We are on table g03b01 in Hall 1

Here is the fluff and some photos -

The battle of Northbridge in the great war with Angmar
Background.
Northbridge is a town that was founded by the Éothéod peoples near to the southern entrance of the dwarven realm of Norgerond. It lies on the south bank of the Forest River between the Greenwood (Mirkwood) and the Grey Mountains.
The town flourished as a trading center with the dwarves of Norgerond and the elves of Thranduils woodland realm along the Forest River to the southeast.
A great market is held in autumn when the nomadic Alarith tribe from the Northern Wastes passes south with their herds before the winter and again as the tribe returns to the north in spring.
In the last years the peace in the north has been shook by the growing power of the Witchking of Angmar. Raids on Rhovanion are common place the and the dwarves of the Grey Mountains are being steadily pushed back east by orcs from Mount Gundabad.
Third Age.1966
The morning of the battle.
The Alarith tribe are camped on the river bank with their herds and the market in Northbridge in in full swing.
A surprise attack by orcs have pushed the last of the dwarves out of the gates of Norgerond and the dwarves are running for Northbridge followed by the orcs.
Can the men of Northbridge, the Alarith and the dwarves stop the orcs?

Where is that lizard with the castle from? I know I've seen it before…

(It's in the Flickr stream, if anyone is wondering)

Insert expletive of choice.

So wish I was going to Antwerp next week, mostly to see this in the flesh.
