Carronade

Just back from the Falkirk show. I saw some splendid games especially ACW and ECW ones. We had a good chat with the chap running the Vbcw game with lots of aircraft and Nissen huts. I particularly enjoyed talking to the friendly fellows at the Westerhope Wargamers game and watching their El CID game with loads of figures and lovely boats. They’re always a tonic to talk to. Here are my purchases-

My longtime opponent bought the starter set for Gangs of Rome and l will buy in at the stage when the urban cohorts and night watch are released. I felt numbers attending the show were up from last year and it was great to see families,women and children in greater numbers. A positive note for the hobby.
