Get your ferry booked as Shetland is having it's very own show. :)
Okay so it may not be up to Claymore Size, but we have to start somewhere. This covers everything from RPG's via card and boardgames to Wargames. I will be running a prehistoric hunting game using my 10mm stuff. I will be showing off my Sudan stuff too.

If I had the cash I would have put on a Warband game, but maybe next year.
So if you happen to be in Lerwick on Saturday 31st October pop along to the Iseburgh between 10.00 - 17.00
Sometimes I wonder - why is that frisbee geting bigger - and then it hits me!

Good luck with it, hope it goes well!  What are the costs like for getting over to the Islands?  It's a bit short notice for this year, but could be an option in the future.

I know there is a small but active group of wargamers in Orkney but don't know if they get as far as Shetland.
My Ego forbids a signature.

Good luck with the hsow but a bit too far for me to make a day trip. Possibly a long weekend in the future though...

Put it this way, getting to the continent might be cheaper.

There have been some joint games, due to work I haven't been able to get.

Thanks guys, I will let you know how it gets on. Sadly my Mongol project stalled, otherise I might have gone for them to put on a game. But at the end of the day, mammoth hunting is simple man with spear, man with bow...dog.... That's one side sorted.... Errrr Mammoth other side sorted. I have bulked out the fauna with some of magister beasties ;)
