Bit far for me, at least 2 hours around the wretched M25 M4.  Will you be at Salute?

Glad to see you will be at colours guys, i will be there on te Sunday so will hopefully pop by for a chat.

I think it's great for you to have a presence at the show and with the quality of your minis you are sure to turn a few heads and bring some impulse buys.

Are you running demo games?

Well I'll be at salute next year I imagine. Don't suppose you'll make any of the scottish shows next year like carronade or claymore?

If they do, I'll be there stocking up on shiny goodness.  Personal preference, Carronade is better; though perhaps Bushido will finally get Claymore out of the historical rut.

Just noticed your part of G3, I've met a few guys from that group; when they came through to Livingston. Small World ;)

Saw the stand at colours and me and my mate bought 3 out of 4 factions from the guys.

There are now two players at Milton Keynes Wargame Society (MKWGS)

Great models.  Hadn't planned to buy a new game system but....

Off to Hovels now for some buildings

A good day at Colours today, had a good chat with the guys on the Bushido stand and bought the Prefecture starter.  Now I need to paint them and get a game in against Joken...

I may have to put some of my Confrontation projects on hold.

The stand at Colours  was awesome guys, supercool gaming tables and amazing models. 10 of the 13 people on our bus bought starter sets and two of them bought 2 factions each, so thats 10 players in hereford spread eagle war games society playing Bushido! Look forward to Salute.

Aw, come on Ret, not even a hint?

Were there any new greens/concepts there that we haven't seen yet, or was it just info from talking to the guys that you have?

Great day at Colours yesterday and you guys were the Star of the show!

Between the 4 of us that turned up, we each have a different faction and we'll be showing it off at Solent Wagamers club night tomorrow.

Hey, that's some speed painting! Good effort.
