Plymouth Wargames Show 2016

Yesterday DK and I ventured down to Plymouth for the Annual wargames show.
It is the first time I have been down in about 3 years due to other commitments - but the camping and walking on the moor had been cancelled due to a severe weather warning.

I have to say I was impressed with the show. Plenty of traders and a massive bring and buy table - very well run by the members of the Plymouth club. There were a number of quality games on display and people to talk to! No pictures of the event too busy and too much to see!

Spoke to Modiphius about airfix battles which looks and sounds very intriguing- see link


We (well DK mainly) also spoke to River Horse Games about the Terminator game - plans and future models and the Waterloo board game (similar games for the future... Agincourt was mentioned) and their planned Labyrinth family game. All sounding very interesting.

We had a play through of the Halo fleet game with the very friendly Dan from Spartan games - seemed to play smoothly. The 15mm Halo ground game sounds promising - will look out for it when it goes out.

Having seen Pendraken's Warband Rules in use with some very nicely painted and based 28s - I would like to try out those rules.

As stated earlier the bring and buy was very good - I didn't buy but I did sell!
A few magazines, Armati rules and Sedition Wars starter set still factory sealed!

So this is what I bought - the booty!

Got some bargains at the show - thank you troll trader and Lesley's bitz box!
Looking forward to playing Dungeon Saga - probably won't paint before playing- sorry DK!
Got some Mantic undead for Frostgrave, Dragon Rampant and anything else I can think of!
A couple more ships for Attack Wing - must finish the Apnex conversion!
RRP for this lot for in excess of £90 - for less than £50! Result!

So very happy with this lot!
