Your call mate. Bring it if you want and see if anyone wants to play.

I'll put you down for SoC.

Hope to get some nice background noise of people rolling dice and generally shouting things like "His head explodes", "My fighters the best" etc
Cool

But could you put all that in one post in the future or people will start thinking you're an officer in the Ork Navy. :D

For those of you who havent signed up for a game at a specific time yet, if you want to bring ONE or TWO board games with you and see if there is any interest, please feel free.

Fantasy-esque tables for skirmish games like Warmachine, Hordes, Malifaux and Mordheim will be available all day, so bring along your battlegroup/crew/gang and see if you can get some games in.
Warmahordes has plenty of players and I will have a bunch of Malifaux crews if you have your own crew or just want to borrow one of mine and have a crack at a new and very unique game.

Ah so that's where I picked up that habit of too many posts from :D Must be since I switched from Wood Elves to Orcs for fantasy battle.
Ok I'll bring Talisman just in case but it sounds like there is enough going on already. Anyword on Mordheim is that still going on? I'll bring something just in case.

Hey all. I'll be coming. If anyone is intrested, I could bring along Tide of Iron for a slightly different WWII tactical game flavor. The other game I'd like to offer to run is Battle star Galactica. It's best w/ 5 players, so there would be slots of 4 other players. TOI can also be played w/ up to 4 players so there would up to three slots available for that game. I could run BSG just before or just after lunch. As for TOI, I could run that in the early evening around 5 or so.

For anyone that hasn't heard, there will be Flames of War in action a Winter Blitz too.
Games are limited to 750pts (about half the 'normal' size), the perfect size for learning the ropes.

I will be bringing Germans and Russians of various descriptions. If you want to try out this great game, I'm happy to lend one out.

I will also be bringing the board game 'Shadows Over Camelot' which is also a lot of fun. If yoou would like to check out this fun and challenging game, let me know.

Hey Mike, I'd like to get some FOW action in. I've been reading up on the rules and have a better grasp of the rules than before, but it would excellent to have some expert supervision!

@Mike: Yeah, I'm looking forward to it! I think after Sunday I'll know for sure how much I want to invest in this system.

I am playing Flames of War in the morning and hopefully Shadows Over Camelot after that.

I still haven't had time to paint my Paras, shall I bring them and use them anyway or shall I use some Ruskies instead from Mikes collection?
