Sally 4th will be putting on a participation game at 'The Other Partizan' on Sunday 20th August at Newark Showground based on the 1970's action movie 'The Wild Geese'.

We will be running two participation scenarios. The morning scenario is 'Prison Break Out', the afternoon scenario is 'Race for the Plane'. If you'd like to reserve a place in either game, please let me know.

If you're interested in finding out more about the game, I wrote up this weeks play test on my hobby blog @ http://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/Hobby-Pages/Hobby-Blog/Wild-Geese-Play-Test-with-Buck-Tom (http://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/Hobby-Pages/Hobby-Blog/Wild-Geese-Play-Test-with-Buck-Tom)

We will be carrying the full line of the excellent Wild Geese Figures from Mike Bravo Miniatures which can be pre-ordered @ http://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/epages/950003459.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950003459/Categories/Mike_Bravo_Miniatures/Wild_Geese (http://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/epages/950003459.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950003459/Categories/Mike_Bravo_Miniatures/Wild_Geese)

Fantastic, look forward to it. 6 days to go and still a few things to finish off making and painting.
I've just finished building enough chain link fence to go around the barracks to replace the iron railings!

Indeed, Combat Patrol works perfectly.
We even had a test game last week with Buck and his son Tom. Tom won, pretty convincingly!
