Club meeting 30 March 2025
A great club meeting today! We had several Saga games, Napoleonics, and Kings of War. I think the highlight of the day though was the demo participation game of Angels One Six, Phil Yates' new WWII aerial combat game. Pretty much everyone at the club joined in for a mission or two, and the response was overwhelmingly enthusiastic.

Kings of War - Brett (Empire of Dust) played Kit (Orcs)
Saga - Jason (Saracens) played Marcel (Milites Christi)
Greg (French) played Philip (Last Romans)
Ben (Steppe Peoples) played Robert (Indians)
Greg (French) played Jason (Scottish)
Glory is Fleeting - Andrew (Prussian) played Mike (French)

At today's club meeting, we had several 15mm DBMM ancients games. It was great to get the old armies out again. Ancients used to be a really strong period at the club and there was lots of interest in playing more ancient games. Also at the club, a Kings of War game between a couple of really nice armies.
Kings of War - Alan (Basileans) played Brett (Empire of Dust)
15mm DBMM - Benny (Early Carthaginians) played Malcolm (Early Imperial Romans)
Al (Spartans) played Shaun (Later Carthaginans)
Philip (New Kingdom Egyptians) played Stuart (Middle Assyrians)

WRG 1925-1950 rules - A 15mm WWII game using the original 1973 edition of WRG's WWII rules. These were played quite frequently in the club back in the 70s using Airfix models. Today Al's BEF took on Kit's 1940 Germans in a game that looked very appealing.
