The two Partizan shows break their games down into distinct areas - participation games and demonstration games (although some of the latter were participation games). There is definitely a lot of encouragement from the organisers for people to put on participation games, which is definitely a good thing in my opinion.

| The table at the end of my game (we only played the centre commands) |
One thing I did notice was the preponderance of games using Too Fat Lardies rules - there were several games of Chain of Command, a couple of I Ain't Been Shot Mum and a couple of Sharpe Practice (one of them an Ancients variant). There may have been others as I didn't always notice the rules in play.
