Club diary - November 2011

Normal gaming for most evenings this month:

The party game on the 28th will be Pete Merritt's Lord of the Rings extravaganza... see the SELWG pictures for an idea of the scope.

And of course, the deadline for the 40k tournament 5th round games is the 28th November. Stick to it and it'll all be over by Christmas :)

Warlords at SELWG 2011

Last weekend was the SELWG show at Crystal Palace; there were two teams of Warlords there to visit our neighbouring club and show some support.

Club painting competition - Sept 2011 (part 2)

Every quarter we have a painting competition down the club; the only prize is that you get to choose the next quarter's theme. There were three categories this time - the historical, the fantasy/SF and the open. I just thought I'd upload some more pictures while I wait for the rugby - I'm a patriotic Englishman, but supporting Wales as the sole home nation interest now.

Fantasy and Sci-fi - 'Teams, gangs and warbands'

Club Night Games 3rd October 2011

Another walk-through of the games being played tonight. I think I got everyone's game, but if I missed any, I'm sorry. I have tried to name the rules and the figures - sometimes these don't match...

General view across the hall

Rapid Fire rules with WW1 figures

Song of Blades and Heroes rules,  LOTR collectable figures

General de Brigade Rules, 15mm figures...

...and a picture some of those figures. French Revolutionary Wars.

Hammers Slammers in 15mm...

...and some of the great terrain

Hail Caesar rules

40k Killteam

Bloodbowl - undead v. orcs

One of several 40k games in the club tournament

Kings of War rules, GW figures, no scenery! (A first run-out for the rules for Mac, keeping it very simple)

40k again

40k again

Guess what - more 40k

Captain Park's Imaginary Polar Expedition, I think.

Club diary - October 2011

Normal gaming for most evenings this month, but a couple of things members should know about:

17th October - scenery evening. The club won't be open for gaming tonight as it's the annual scenery inventory and refurbishment. But there will be pizza (if you sign up in advance so Dave knows how many to order...)

24th October - Paul D will be running a Space Hulk party game over the fantastic 3D scenery he's spent the summer painting up! Sign up with Paul to get a place at the table.


And finally, the deadline for the 40k tournament 4th round games is the 17th October, so you had better get your skates on and get the results to Paul.
