Fair do's. 

[Dave Fairlamb]

Shell and Shot eh? not too bad, probably going to put some names in a hat and let the club members choose.

I Guess it is a touchy subject, too difficult to explain fully on the forum. But rest assured it will be business as usual at the new club. Games, fun and lots of dice rolling buy the bucket load with some nice new terrain and club projects.

I think me and my friend Paul were going to do a bit of the Old D-day BKC (Sainte-Mère-Église, Airborne attack the German garrison). He has been getting into it now for a few months and he wants a Yank army for 44+. I will have to just upgrade me Germans with BIG cats and various other nasty stuff

The reminds me, I went to Gladstones the other day and discovered that Zvezda are doing a range of 1/144 scale Aircraft (art-of-tactic.com) and picked up a Bf109F and a LAGG3 (£5+ tho they ain't cheap). But its not often do you see Russian fighters, I could not resist. 

[Jim Ando]

I won`t be down till 4.30 any way if I can find the place . I know it`s near tyne dock. So you have a new player to BKC thats always good news.

SECTION 8.

[Jim Ando]

apparently Section 8 is how you get out the army for not being the full shilling so to speak.

I`m sure someone will correct me on this if I`m wrong.
