UPDATE: Double cake is confirmed!
Also, I've uploaded a couple of photos to show you which room we're in if it's your first visit, same as last year if you're an old hand.
I've rummaged around and found a couple of painted armies I want to sell along with some scenery and other stuff (lots of DVDs) so I can clear some space if you feel like indulging in some cheaply priced tat buying.

Looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday :)

A bring and buy! :o
I might look out some unwanted lead to offload then...

Silent Invader and I are going to play Wars of The Roses on his spiffing new medieval village board. We're organising it so we can accommodate 4 players if there are others looking for a game :)

I'll be running Strange Aeons on a compact 18" x 30" - space for 2 players should only take 30 mins a game...

Mike
Title: Re: Matakishi's Tea Party 2012 UPDATE (page 2)
Post by: matakishi on September 20, 2012, 10:56:22 PM
I think there should be enough spaces for everyone to play something all the time but I could be wrong. I will be running my Rorke's Drift as often as necessary (I know you've already played it) and may try out my 2nd scenario too (no promises it'll be a balanced encounter until it's played and tested though). That will cope with 3-4 people.

My Gladiator board is at school too so I might bring the pieces for that as they're easy to transport.

There's VSF but I'm not sure they're taking extras as there's four of them already. Mark is bringing Fire and Fury again which is always good and can cope with four players quite easily I think. Mike's Strange Aeons should be running regularly, 2 players there probably. Richard and Steve have a four player (?) Wars of the Roses skirmish too.

That's 20 if Mike and I are umpires which pretty much counts everybody.

Best laid plans and all that...

It was due to me driving, so no beer. Now it's because I have an inner ear infection so can't come  :-[ Apparently there might be a balance/motorway driving issue...

Thanks for a great day yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed the games,the conversations and the company. Please pass on my thanks to Fran and your daughter for the food and the drinks. I think it will be an excellent venue for BLAM 2012.

Here's a couple of photos of our games. Sorry I didnt geta round to photographing the Zulu game and the Strange Eons game.

Post by: matakishi on September 23, 2012, 12:16:59 PM
I hope everyone enjoyed themselves, I did (and that's what counts :) )
We were a little depleted on numbers at the last minute as our three-man Frothers contingent had to abort at the last minute but everything went well despite that I think. A good practice run for BLAM.
once again it's always great to see the LAF figures and terrain in the flesh, I'll be grateful for any photos so that I can compile a report on my site, I didn't take any at all this year.
