Title: Medieval Wargame Event. Durham.
Post by: Tim Haslam on 03 August 2023, 06:32:09 PM: Hi guys,
Just a quick note,

Warhammer Ancient Battles is alive and kicking.
We’ve had two well attended events so far this year. The next is at the end of September up in Durham.

It’s a 3 game friendly style tournament, 1st game on the Saturday and the other two games on the Sunday (1st October) so we get an early finish.

Period is medieval with armies from 1102AD, but so far most of them seem to be later period choices.
Armies will be chosen from Armies of Antiquity V2.
Points will be 3400, to allow for the extra cost in points for this period.

Venue is the Durham Wargames club, an old and venerable establishment.

We already have 14 players signed up, but there is room for more..

PM me for details, rules pack etc.

Cheers
Tim

It's just a WAB event. The Durham show wasn't on this year but I expect it will be returning in full effect next year.

The WAB event should be a good laugh. The last one in Middleton near Manchester was excellent and a really good laugh.
