Norm

Pleased to have enrolled in this friendly forum - at last!

Firstly, I would like to acknowledge the commitment of both Dave and Leon to the scale and to the show circuit, they are very much part of the fabric of the wargaming family and their presence is essential to the shows that I attend.

Fortunately for their business model, I am interested in multiple periods :) I maintain a blog (called battlefields and warriors) that specifically looks at gaming in small places and so the 10mm scale with fairly small forces will be the main theme of my posts here, which I hope will be of interest. (should also say that I have a major interest in hexes).

At the two shows that I have visited so far this year (Hammerhead and Allumwell), I was pleased to see a general trend towards an increasing number of small tables being used to demo games, so kitchen table gaming looks to be alive and well :)

Hi Norm, welcome to the forum.

Despite what has been said about the members of this forum, I am neither mad nor eccentric.

I'd shake your hand but the arms of this jacket seem to be caught on something at the back ...  ;D

I don't know, the "Delenda est Carthago" gambit seemed to work pretty well for fsn :)
