Selwg show 2016

As always this is my personal view and nothing other than that. So in no particular order.
South London Warlords
Dr Who Participation

Reading and newbury
Senlac ridge.
AKA Battle of Hastings

GLC Game club
Lion Rampant

Gravesend Gamers (Guild?)
x-Wing
(like you had not guessed!

Realtime Wargamers
Renaissance.

Society of Ancients
Battle of Ephesos




Sorry I do not Recall who this was
But a nice ACW Game
Possibly Loughton Strike Force

Simon Miller
To The Strongest
Raphia Game
All I know LOTS and Lots of Pikes!

As above, big game loads of figures

20mm Mexican Revelotion.
Shellhole Senics
(I Think)


Warlord Games Demo (I think)
28mm WW2
Bolt Action.

Tamsin tells me this is the other end of the GLC
board and I have no reason to doubt her.
 

Brain has fried
Can't remember
Peter pig Demo of the New
"Men of Company B" rules due out in 1-2 months

 

Pickets Charge
Essex Warriors
 


Maidstone Wargames club
2mm (yes 2mm) Arab Israeli wars

just a little bit too small for me.

Crwawly Wargames
Overlord
Shepway Wargames


Dulwich Gamers
15mm VBCW

For me the best Game.
Nice friendly players
and a theme/period I enjoy
And I have not seen VBCW in 15mm before.

The show main floor
about 12.20-1pm
(just in case you see yourself
and need an alibi!)
Look see, They will let anyone in!
Ray and Tamsin.
Both bloggers and both nice people.
 
Well that's it for today, More again tomorrow, Something painted no more show. If you have any corrections on games I have mislabled. Please leave a comment. Especially if it was your game as I am bound to have a few wrong it is just he way I am. But you wouldn't change me, you'd never get a refund!

      Thank you Andy. Yes the Dr Who Game is good but Dr who (In My opinion) is about a NON combative hero who wins with wits. So I am always cautious of Dr Wargames as they tend to have players who shoot first and think last no matter what the rules say!

      Thank you Miles. One of the things, for me, is seeing all the games that are different from what I would think of. That is what makes a good show for me.

      It was a good show. Possible the best I have been to this year. But there were issues as well, some empty tables for example.

    I understand that Ray offered sexual favours to be allowed in - they told him "That's a threat, not an offer" ;)

    Amazingly, a halfway decent pic of me has appeared on the interwebs :)

    Nice set of pics of the games Clint - the one where you say "Sorry memory has gone" was a view from the other end of the GLC Gamers table.

      Thank you Paul. There were several bloggers their and I was happy to be included. And while I do not consider myself as notable in any way at least they did not run and hide from me this time. But that makes me wonder if they did and if they were good at it how would I know! Ahh the joy of Paranoia!!

    I,m pretty sure the first ACW game shown was Picketts charge in 15mm. The second set were 28mm don't know the action. Only remember becouse you know how I'm drawn to the blue and the grey

    Hmm, I once played the Daleks in a Doctor Who game that looked very like that. If i remember correctly, a Cyberman blocked the exit from my starting room on turn 1 and I spent pretty much all of the game trying to exterminate it so that I could get out. Exterminate! EXTERMINATE!!

      Thanks Matt. I know several of the Maistone guys and they usually put on a good game. They already working on the show game for 2018. But for me 2 mm figures are just too small. No objection other than that.
