OK, so I didn't post anything in August.......

..... and now it is September. I've not posted anything, because I still haven't managed to paint anything because of the damned arthritis. However, I did go to the Lardy Workshop at Britcon in Nottingham back in early August, and here are some pictures from the event.

























I think I've all the games, but if I've missed anything out it'll be my mistake rather than anything else. 

As you can see the quality of the tables and the figures used is superb. Lardy Days like this certainly bring out the very best examples of what can be done in wargaming.

The games covered everything from Middle Earth and the dusty plain outside Troy via medieval Japan, the 18th century Caribbean, Normandy in 1944 and Germany in 1945 right up to Vietnam in the 1960s, plus various other locations.

The rules on offer were Chain of Command, Sharp Practice, What A Cowboy, General d'Armée, Kiss Me Hardy, the soon-to-be published Midgard and the unpublished (but excellent) Until The Last Sword Is Drawn.

It was great to meet up with gaming friends old and new and my thanks go out to Don Avis whose ability to herd cats (i.e. wargamers) and organise the whole thing is pretty awesome.
