We hosted a presentation game at Britcon2022 at Nottingham Trent University. Great event. This was the first year at the new venue for Britcon, but we can definitely see this event growing and growing. Fantastic state-of-the-art venue. Relaxed, friendly vibe. Superb line-up of traders. Lots of room to break out and chat with other wargamers. Interesting new game concepts. Easily accessible city centre location. One to put into the wargame event diary for a mid summer trip to the 'home of wargaming' (the Lead Belt) Nottingham! In our Battle of the Marne, 1914 game, the Germans, after struggling initially against the lethal rapid fire from the French 75mm artillery, hit home and routed the French, sending them back for one last gasp defence of Paris. 20mm figures – mostly HaT, Zvezda, Strelets and Airfix.

Great images – especially loved the POWs being herded back by a vigilant French soldier!

Great looking game! May I ask what rules you used? I am collecting and painting 1/72 plastics with just such a game in mind.
