So that's where you were! Not to rub it in, but there was also the setup email I sent out to everyone stating times for setting up on Saturday morning or Friday evening...! Not to worry though, we had a spare game volunteer who was able to step in and use the table so we'll get you guys sorted for next year instead.

The day itself was a cracking day out and the feedback so far has been very positive. We'll have a report done later tonight and we've uploaded all of the photos to our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pg/Battlegroun ... 8890670031 Here's a selection as well:

The games were good. That first one was intriguing for me as it features the GM Convent Iā€™m painting at the moment and it was the first time Iā€™d seen one finished in the flesh. The 1940 Dads Army game (10th Down) was excellent, especially the Oast House.

Quite a few games were using the pre-printed battle mats and mostly looked very good. I foresee one or two of these in my future.

I was interested by the Home Guard game as they did something for Bolt Action rules that my group in SA had done previously, also in a Home Guard game, and that was to give individual figures dice as opposed to units. Works well.

I though the ACW games in particular were excellent eye candy.

I was rather taken with the 10mm ACW game. If only all my stuff wasn't 15mm...

But if your stuff was 10mm I couldn't have sold you lots of my stuff.

Excellent looking show. Maybe I'll have to head north next year (yes, I know 'blah blah lost blah blah').

What was the AWI game, who was running it, and what rules were they using?
