Some nice figures and vehicles on display in the various games, but I was a bit disappointed at the overall presentation which I though let down the hard work gone into the miniatures. For terrain, although it pains me to say it, the Warhammer 40k jungle game was the best effort. For a two day convention, some of the games looked a bit like a club night, but on a good day. Especially when compared to the Hamburg Tactica or the Tin Soldiers of Antwerp show for example. Sorry, just a personal observation, thanks for posting the report and pics though, it always fascinates me to see what is going on in our hobby elsewhwere.
They will not force us,
They will stop degrading us,
They will not control us,
We will be victorious!!

The problem is that it is still a tournament-oriented show with some demo games and retailers. They tried two years ago to mix with another show dedicated to demo game (Toutatis) but though it was a success for the public, as far as I know the management was a bit difficult.
