VBCW Ayton 3rd May 2019 Organisation Thread

[goat major]

Just a note on transport vehicles. The main game will be fought across a 6’ x 30’ table with the main road running lengthways through the centre of the table(I.e it’s Ayton). There be plenty of minor roads from the players table edges

This means you may well find transport vehicles useful for a variety of reasons but they’re not absolutely essential to get into action. If any of you don’t want to have to buy them it’s not going to be a huge issue for you

I’m hoping to bring some spare vehicles. Could be fun to park them randomly and then players can get see if they start and then use them.

If Andy was playing, no doubt he would set them on fire and drive them straight at Peeler

[goat major]

Yes good idea

[Jeremy]

Is it strange that buying these Matchbox Models of Yesterday is slightly addictive?

[Buff Orpington]

If we're going to resurrect RAF West Ayton can we rebuild the castle while we're at it?

The barsteward!

Having looked at the history of the RNAS West Ayton (prior to our little April Fools Day prank in 1918) I'm trying to picture the effects of putting a bunch of sailors in the area, the disruption to the gene pool must have been enormous.

The BUM’s have been expropriating, without compensation, basically everything with four wheels between Rawtenstall and Oldham.


And no, they will not be painted. That would involve stealing paint. And why steal paint when you can steal beer and pies instead?

[Purple]

Is this where we reveal there is only one serviceable road entry point on table...

[levied troop]

Hmmmm.... perhaps a car park rather than a village?

Could save on buildings
