Advance notice - get this one on the house calendar before your other-half notices!

yes folks, I have managed to book the skittle alley at The Tudor Arms for another weekends worth of mass CWC gaming.

I am in conversation with Richard to establish if we are doing part of the marathon ColdWarCommanders on-going game series or we are off on a side-show somewhere ...???

But please let me know if you can make it and what forces you will bring (once we have agreed on the sector we are fighting).

Usual 6mm forces, using ORBATs only please.

many thanks

Thanks Mark

I'm just awaiting comms from Richard around scenario but we might look at splitting the event up into a number of connected table and using some of the scenarios from the back of the rules as a basis of play.
So it will look like a big game, but we'll avoid the issues we've had previously of the 'play' getting concentrated in a single area, leaving some players to twiddle there thumbs a bit. Grin

Once I have a view of all the players and armies I will give you the nod on what forces/nationalities and points world work best.

Appreciate the support

This event is now cancelled due to Corona-virus concerns. It will be resurrected later in the year hopefully.

many thanks
