Setting the East Ablaze

I've just taken delivery of a set of rules that I bought off a very kind chap from Cheltenham, Setting the East Ablaze. I was advised by North Star Nick that they would be very good for the North West Frontier and having given them the once over I have to agree. They are quite slick but subtle enough to allow for any tweaking that may of may not need to be done.



I'm just finishing off the first five chaps from the Artizan Brits NWF range from the following packs:




They're soon to be followed by a five more (all done in my spare time- which is proving to be harder to attain these days).

Pics of the painted version very soon!

Bye for now.

Partizan May 2015

Hi,

I had a great day out at Partizan yesterday. I got to meet up with old friends and put faces to some names to boot. Many thanks to Bob for driving down and offering me a lift in the first place. The return train journey was quite quick or was I just knackered? :>)

Here's the lowdown on the games that caught my eye- it is by no means a comprehensive view of all the games but rather a slice of what I fancied- except for one game that had attracted so much attention that I couldn't really get near it all day!

Typically, I forgot to pick up the leaflets that were freely available with most of the games so I may have made the odd error in naming the games so please don't hesitate to leave a comment if I've screwed up!

Bye for now.
