Our good chum Adrian at Wyvern Wargamers has sent us the full SP for the Lardest Day being organized in Evesham, Worcestershire, on the 8th of June.
He tells us that:
Wyvern Wargamers would like to invite you (yes, you!) down to our upcoming event at Wyvern Wargamers (Evesham) on 8th June from 0900-1800 at the Bishampton Village Hall. They have got Richard Clarke of TooFatLardies coming for the day to be on hand, answer rules queries, run demos of Chain of Command, and generally be "pushing the Lard". Also the ultimate "Man of the Midlands" Neil Shuck of Meeples & Miniatures will be joining us.
We've got enough kit between us to be running at least one table each of games of IABSM3 (15mm WWII), IABNM (as-yet-unpublished Cold War rules), Sharpe Practice (28mm Napoleonic – maybe including our Zulu/French Indian variants too?), Mud and Blood (WWI 28mm), Terrible Sharp Sword (ACW 28mm), Tin Star (as-yet-unpublished Cowboy skirmish 28mm) and Dux Britanniarum (Dark Ages 28mm).
Rich'll be demoing Chain of Command (WWII Platoon+ 28mm) which is due for release this summer; we'll have two participation tables covering that. We'll be encouraging everyone to bring their own kit, too, where able. We are pre-arranging games, if possible, once numbers are ascertained. Our plan is to try and get in one game in the morning, switch opponents/periods and play a second game after lunch. So a Lard-packed day of gaming fun.
When we're all done, we'll head back into town, see those who need to their accommodations, and reconvene for beer and curry with the "Lord of the Lard" himself. We're looking at just £5.00 GBP per head, so great value, too! If you fancy attending then, please contact Lard Entertainments Officer for the Midlands, Adrian, at patsnade@hotmail.co.uk and let him know.
Interesting stuff, and three of us are heading up from Lard Island for what is going to be a really great day of gaming in the heart of England. I hope we can see some of you joining us there.
