Some games at Carronade 2010
« on: May 14, 2010, 10:06:55 AM »
Phil Olley's 30 Years War game




Barrie Hilton's Republic to Empire game


RAF Leuchars' The Magnificent Seven game


The Iron Brigade's ACW game


Bathgate Wargames Club's The Curse of the Crackenwald game

Interior shot


Franco-Prussian War game ~ small scale.


Back of Beyond game ~ I think.


The Trojan War


Medieval game


Finally, hoardes of visitors parting with their money ~ and not a spanner in sight!


My thanks to Sue who took many of the pictures and, eventually, let me borrow the camera to take a few other shots of the games.

Great show.
Looked even more popular than last year. The location is great with loads of room in all the different halls. Well worth a visit if anybody is interest from further south. You don’t need a passport to come north you know.   :D
I wish I had taken some photos.
Loads of traders.



First time I have seen the Ironclad stall. I could have been in this picture. Spent some time and money here.
Had a nice conversation with Ironclad man and he mentioned some very interesting projects he has underway, including houses, another couple of steam tanks and his own rules.
Malamute – If you happen to read this, he had some nice thing to say about the help you had given him in researching some figures
