Salute 2014, or there and back again. Part two.


This game is for Neil, it was titled Kursk 1943 by the Loughton Strike Force, and was a well executed game with some lovely effects. I knew Neil would like the smoke.




The By Fire and Sword company are from Poland, and they have done a great deal of hard work to establish their company. I had a long talk to them about the period as I have started to build up a Polish renaissance army. To help explain their rules they had a couple of small tables to try the rules out. Its a real shame that the figures are 15mm. 


The South London Warlords put on the Battle of Barbastro 1837 from the Carlist wars. This was a really pretty game containing some very well painted figures. Listening to a group of Spanish wargamers, they were very excited by the representation.


I dont know who put this game on, and I know its been done before, but watching the game, people were really enjoying themselves, which is a good thing. In part three [yes] I will finish with some thoughts about the day.
