[Yankeepedlar01]

A lighthearted Bolt Action game set around the fictional world of Blandings Castle...

Where pigs Dare...

And creatures of the Dark lurk...
A full AAR for those not of a nervous disposition over on the blog ~

That looked like a fun game.

A crackling game and the big bad wolf didn't hamstring this little piggy

This would work well as a hambush scenario, then daddy could bring home the bacon.

Joroas - they were terrible puns

I was very disappointed to find that Dennys had stopped giving that cup away, had to make do witha Peppa Pig one!

We had great fun during the game, which you can only attribute to like minded folk getting together to enjoy their hobby and friendship free of the constraints of those sad types who can't face up to the reality that we play games with toy soldiers and enjoy it...

And in those few words we have the best wargaming philosophy I can think of. Bravo for Blandings. An excellent report on what looked like a huge amount of fun.

Thanks for that! Much appreciated after some recent unpleasantness on another place. Sometimes I just feel that folk have lost sight of the simple fact that hobbies are meant to be fun.

David you are welcome, I always look forward to reports from GHQ whatever the period or game, either here or on WD3. Are there other forums? But that ethos is so close to my own as to be the same. I can't abide all the claptrap some people want to add to what is after all a hobby, and as you say Hobbies are supposed to be fun, and It's only toy soldiers after all. I have no problem with that at all. Bravo to you, Phil and all the gang.

Looks like a very fun game with great looking toys.
