Well I finally made it to my first wargame show since the Covid pandemic hit these shores. It was fittining it was York, as York was the last show I went to in February 2020.
Despite some anxiety mixing with so many people, it was nice to feel normal again, well aprt from wearing a mask. The show was much more spread out. The large games normally on the ground floor were moved upstairs. I even forgot to take pictures...doh!
Purchase wise I was very restrained, keeping to my wanted list, though I did pick up a small bargain.
So some well needed paints, bases. I even picked up some brushes from ABC to try out as well as a few from my normal supplier Coritani.
I picked up a resin well for my Colonial games, some Carlist LMG teams for the SCW and a pack of war mammoths for my 10mm Chaos army. Lastly was the bargain I came upon by chance, picking up 5 packs of Peter Pig Pony Wars range for £10. Nice little additions to the small collection that I really need to think about starting.
So happy to be back at show, look forward to the next one.
Congratulations Scotty....it must be forty years since I went to a wargames show...probably in Ediburgh about the age of sixteen...and even then, I would have bought more than this! I can even tell you what I bought...a new range of Jacobite Rising 25mm figures, both sides, and I still have some of them, repurposed for the French and Indian War! Shame you forgot to take images if the games, they are always nice to see!
