Injury 

Left me on crutches for months.

Never charge the King without checking for bodyguard 

I did like the old days though, pike units, random clansmen, bucket helm brigade. It was a bit mental in the early days 

Yeah I was the same..always make sure you get you shield in the way when someone swings a bearded axe at you other wise you end up getting your thumb split in two and a trip to Drogheda Hospital to be looked after by nuns for a couple of days and forced to watch the Rose of Tralee festival on RTE

  

Not long to go now, only a couple of days!  We're almost ready, just need to cast a load of stock, get some more Falkland's moulds done, build a new show stand for Minibits, and pack all the goodie bags.  But apart from all that, we're ready to go!

Numbers for the curry are confirmed at somewhere around 14-15 I reckon, depending on a couple of last minute maybe's!

We'll be meeting up at the hotel between 7-7:30pm and then we'll sort out getting up to the Indian from there.  It's only a short walk (400yds-ish I think), but we'll have cars there as well.

I think I was a last minute maybe but now I am a last minute yes all thanks!

We're almost ready...

I know that feeling...!  Game-wise, everything is ready - The problem is I just can't help tinkering and thinking "hmmm, I'll just make one of those" or "this would be a cool random event"  - I really should just leave well alone..

see you soon

That's not a bad idea actually, could be something to occupy us into the wee hours back in the hotel bar!

Hi

This may have been answered before but what time can we get in with the display games.

We'll be there from 6-6:30am ish so anytime after then should be fine.  As you come in the front entrance doors, turn right straight away and head up the corridor, we're in the room up the stairs.

I popped an email out to Dave I think with some details on it.

Just finished casting ACW stock, time to go home methinks!  Nice big list of jobs to do tomorrow, including the first of the Falkland's figures!

Oooo - Must bring cash to purchase lots of Falklands lovelyness..

Can't wait to see these 'in the flesh'. Must consult MicroMark B40M (Operation Corporate British 1982) and make a list. Surely a company each of Paras, Marines, Guards, SBS/SAS sections, plus support platoons at 1:1 will be enough. But then there's also the Argentine forces to consider. Maybe a batallion or two of them will suffice?

What a dilema.

Hehe, I don't think I'll have all that ready for Saturday!  The first batch covers a lot of the types, but all in beret to start.  A load of castings will then go back to Techno for conversion into the helmets.
