I'll be crossing the border solo this year, but I will certainly be there!

Crisis is the only show I visit every year, so I wouldn't want to miss it for the world...  :)

Will you have your vehicles and the Mutton Chop Range with you? Perhaps some pre-order discount?

We plan to take a lot of goodies but some items such as Mutton Chop and our vehicles sell very fast so pre orders are advisable.

So, a day later, how was Crisis this year?

As usual a lot of great gaming tables and traders, personally I think from modelling point of view the average quality of the gaming tables was higher then last year  :)

I recognized some nice changes in the setup/organisation:

the whole venue for me seemed fine tuned  :), a more and better setup "food court", the setting of gaming and trade stands I found quite varied, no long strait boring lanes. The bring & sell section was better placed and a second set of toilets improved the situation further. However paying 10.-€ entrance fee AND having to pay to go for a pee...... :(
The parking was free for the early visitors only, because a lot of space was reserved for traders, but not needed  :-[

All in all I enjoyed the 10th Crisis I visited very much and will be there in 2015  :) :)
These days it's Wargods and Warhammer Armies Project I am working on !

was there, met a few people I know from the forum, that was nice, had a nice day...
it appeared to me they now distributed presented games and traders more evenly between the two halls - not sure how I like this....
I prefer gamers to be close together so that we can meet and discuss easier.

the most remarkable experience for me was seeing the Keren set-up in the flesh - it was mesmerizing, it can't be caught in pictures how it feels to stand next to it. First time for me in miniature wargaming ever that the expression "willing suspension of disbelief" got a true meaning....

I had the impression that the number of traders this year doubled, it was overwhelming - I always have to make several attempts to see everything.
sadly, I did not get the special miniature although I paid the entry fee....

Anyway, I hope they got the costs covered so that they can do it next year again. It is important to have such a large convention on mainland Europe
