Fresh from the depths of Angus in Scotland.

Aberdeen Wargames Club were doing the Battle of Benburb in 28mm
( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Benburb )

I missed the actual subject of Angus Wargames Club's game; some sort of colonial game in North Africa or Afghanistan?

Border Reivers had a static display of a Horus Heresy game using 6mm sci-fi models and terrain from a variety of manufacturers.

Crooked Dice had some more "not-" miniatures on sale, as well as their new Danger 5 miniatures
(http://www.sbs.com.au/danger5/ - caution, it starts playing music)

Dingwall Wargames Club were doing Pegasus Bridge in 28mm - If there's a show that _doesn't_ have someone running a Pegasus Bridge game, I've yet to see it.

Dunfermline Wargames Club were running the Battle of Bannockburn using Command And Colours Ancients rules and 15mm miniatures.
Image
Durham Wargames Club were running Sails of Glory, with a goodly number of ships.

Figures In Comfort are now selling some oddly handy gaming periscopes.

Some shots of our fine, upstanding club members running Flames of War and Warzone Resurrection
Image

Gourock Wargames Association had a 15mm French in Vietnam game.

Iron Brigade had a WW2 Far East game chock-full of jungle scenery. Check out the Japanese anti-tank bicycle!
Image

The League of Augsberg had a snowy Battle of Fraustadt

A selection of entries in the painting competition

And finally, the Too Fat Lardies WW2 Eastern Front game; sadly unattended when I took my photos.

Not pictured - me getting briefly lost in the bowels of the countryside and nearly killing myself in the rain and darkness somewhere on the M90.

Seems like a fun event.
I guess that Pegasus Bridge scenario is getting a bit stale for regular game show attendees.

I like that submersible. I do enjoy a spot of convention action. One day, all this shall be ours here in Japan. One day...

That looks like a good event. Would love to get to something like that again...one day.

My better half is still away. So..spent the day very productively and played some Skyrim, since I've finished almost everything but the main quest. Catching up on some Tv viewing too. I liked Inspector Morse, so the recent Endeavour series with his 60s incarnation is hitting the spot (far better than that 'Lewis' thing).
Hobby wise, some tidying and trimming of Dredd minis, and adding road markings and weathering to my parapet terrain.

I like the look of this new sci-fi terrain and will be checking back-

But still no sign of the orky buggies on their site, which they promised weeks back.

I can't actually find most of those buildings on their site, though:

@Agp, yeah.. :( ..and although the tiles are nice, it was the buildings that made me go :o
Wonder if they're releasing them down the line?
