Partizan 2024 28mm Sudan game

Hi folks,

Back in May, I trekked down to Newark with DaveD and MartinC. We had an overnight stay, with a few beers and some food. 

The day of the show we used Dave's 28mm Sudan collection and a set of quick play rules he'd written up to play a large 'get the toys on the table' game. 

I helped out by commanding the Imperial forces towards the afternoon of a hectic and hot day. We had a lot of interest in the table and collection - resulting in much chatting with other hobbyists. I also tried to 'police' the table, removing measuring tapes and dice, etc. This led to us having a very 'clean' looking game for most of the day. 

Loot wise, I got some great deals on 15mm Team Yankee West Germans. An estate sale had bags of stuff at very reasonable prices. I think I ended up with around four times the RRP value of what I spent. 

The Other Partisan pics

Hi folks,

A great weekend away with the lads, which included a random Spitfire flying over us while we sat in the pub's beer garden.

Day off today, so thought I'd post some pics. No loot pictures yet, as some of the stuff I bought is being posted.

In other news, I was to collect my set of Adeptus Titanicus rules at the show. The chap I was buying them from, Gav, handed me a bag which contained the full 'Grand Masters' edition - worth £175. I had only paid £30 for the rules set... However, being the honest sort I am, I pointed out his mistake and gave him the bag back. As tempting as saying 'thanks' and walking off with the bag might have been, local shops need support and it would have been pretty poor of me to take what I hadn't paid for. Perhaps I would have acted differently if the error had been on behalf of some massive multi national retailer...

First pictures are of Dave's Sudan game:

And I made a point of doing a quick tour around the other tables - I think i got most of them! No descriptions I'm afraid, sorry!
