The plan so far is to do a small (3 frigates / side) pursuit battle - 4x4 table open water (maybe one island)
I'll take some boards to level the playing surface, but use the blue cloth over them so no need to repaint them

I have bought a Wargames factory box of 30 Zulus - its a start, and I have started painting 10 of them. We will need a 6 by 10 table for this at the moment but will let you know a little further down the way.

I'm looking forward to Kelmarsh next year. I assume it's stay over like this year? Don't know what to commit to though. Still milling ideas around, FoW - Pegasus bridge, Arnhem or even a bit of a North African desert raid by the LRDG and PPA on a german airfield. - WoW? I'll try and make my mind up soon. Andy

if anyone wants to do a desert flames i can get sand coloured paint in aerosols from work so it will cut down on all the brushwork

Too early to say for definate but at the moment I'm toying with the idea of getting there friday night and camping - the things I will do to avoid getting up early on a saturday morning are unbelievable.

we could all go friday night but would need to pick up stuff from the club first

pick up stuff on the tuesday night, tents up friday, maybe a well earned refreshment or two then up the next day to set up the games

if we could convince E.H. that it is an "authentic re-enactment of wargamers camping" we could camp next to / near the demo tent, rather than miles away in the plastic camp ;D

i think the marquee qould be up by friday night and we could sleep in that both friday and saturday as we did on the saturday this time. no need to go to the plastic camp.

I think this would be a little too much for us to do for the Friday night, considering what we have to do on this night travel wise.
