Hi
I gather that we missed telling everyone that there would be a Bring and Buy at Vapnartak on Sunday 1 February. Can I confirm that once again Humberside Wargames Society will be running this event for us.
I have put a page on the website
http://www.yorkwargames.org/vapnartak.htm
which enables prospective sellers to print a form and fill in the details of their items prior to the show.
A few week back I found myself surprised to be a collector of the Sabertooth Games Lord of the Rings Miniatures. For a gamer who never
has the time to paint all he needs the pre-painted figures were a gift! (I have been a LotR
gaming fan for over 30 years!)
Anyway, following my interest we have secured the first LotR
Tournament for the North-East using the TMG figures. This to be held
from mid-day through to the end of the Show on the 1st February. Sabertooth are providing prizes, probably Promo (PR) models. There
will also be a demo game using these figures.
We now have over 20 games booked and I feel sure that at least one club, somewhere a little south of Sheffield, might well have LotR
TMG gamers - if so, bring the gamers and their models with you for a game!Thanks
