The bad news: With London now entering a new quarantine phase for Covid I am trying to establish if playing in the shed counts as 'outside' mixing. I have asked a couple of police officer friends for their input. If the result is we cannot play then there might be sometime before the next instalment. Will keep you all posted.

Stay safe
Solution: tear down two walls lol  stay safe

Looking forward to what you can game when you can do so.  Of course, stay safe first.

Eric,

Would you consider continuing your Billhooks games online using Tabletop Simulator?

The Wars of the Roses 3D models are available so the game would be eminently playable in the miniatures style.

I’m running the battle of Mortimer’s Crossing tonight...so it’s quite doable.

...I know it ain’t 28mm Perry and all that...but hey, Covid times means improvisation to keep the show on the road!...and you can easily have multiple players just like being in the ‘the shed’.

Thanks for the suggestion but I'd rather keep to the traditional versions.

Latest in the series of our games - the Battle of Worksop  - a skirmish fought just before Wakefield. This was fought last week just before the new covid restrictions

Thanks for another vicious and treachery filled battle.  Mark's table and terrain looked great.

Blore Heath

Bonus points if you can guess the soundtracks.

Stay safe
