Salute is back and 50 is the new Sexy! After a break last year, the Salute Wargames Show is back with a bang. Over 5000 visitors streamed through its doors to enjoy a huge variety of amazing games and dozens of top-quality traders. As usual, I shot far too many pictures, but here is a YouTube slideshow selection of my favorites to give you a flavor of this amazing show. Salute 2023 Photo Review
I'm also hoping to have a review of my take on the day up on my Channel a little later today.

Great music too, though if I had the choice I would have chosen 'Ascension' from Scott Buckley's body of work! YouTube link |

Looked to be a good show, sadly I could not leave the wife with an insane 6 month old pup, however next year!! Tally Ho! |

Nice – and as ever I thought that I'd seen everything in the 6hours and 50 minutes that I was there…but there's at least one game I never noticed! |

WOW! The sheer NUMBERS of figures in some of those games….amazing… Thanks for posting  Dave |

Great video! Music was perfect. And those Greek phalanxes OMG that was epic…. |

Excellent report! Thanks much. |

Thank you for your kind comments. I only took pictures and dropped them into a video, the real hard work was done by the exhibitors. Many of the games were truly spectacular, and an inspiring example of the best the hobby has to offer. I had an absolute blast at the show, despite not being able to feel my legs by the time I went home (probably for the best!). |

Excellent photos and very well put together. Splendid. Hated the music, though…😀 DBDD |

Thanks, BigLee. I muted the music and reduced the playback speed to 25%. Very nice report. |

Outstanding vid thanks so much! |

BigLee, To take the time and energy to put this all together for us, Txs seems too faint of praise. The Norse often say a thousand thanks for something this outstanding and I have to concur. Well done! |

"Great music too" So true, and as it sets off the wonderment for this display of amazing games accomplished at the convention. Swooning with near-disbelief over how good this hobby can be! |
