No comments on “SWS D-Day game”

Our D-Day event on 15th June is filling up!  With armies from all factions involved we're running a Bolt Action day invading France to relieve mainland Europe from the clutches of the Nazis running Germany.

As always, this game is about commemoration not glorification and we pay due homage to all combatants who took part.

Look for the Facebook post at https://www.facebook.com/groups/316365952059693/permalink/2134787530217517/ to announce your intention to play, and let us know what you could bring.  John Geary and Tym Corbett are the main organisers so feel free to message them.

Date: 15th June

Start time: 0900

Location: Clubhouse at Pimley Manor Barns

Scale: 28mm

Ruleset: Bolt Action 

Members free, non-members £10

It's going to be a busy weekend, this one.  We've got two events to visit so please do come to one or both of them to support the club.

Firstly, there's the 40k Paint'n'Play event at the Clubhouse on Sunday 9th June where experienced painters and players will be on hand to help you advance in the hobby.  There will be games a-plenty to join in with.

Things you will need:
Paints
brushes
a water pot
a pallette wet or dry is fine
and minis
Please make sure your minis are assembled and primed.
If you are not interested in the class but want to come and paint/assemble please feel free to come along and pull up a pew and do your own thing in good company
Also we are appearing in a demo game at Battlefield 1403 on Sunday!  Paul Glover and helpers will be on hand to explain to the public what actually happened at Battlefield (formerly know as "Field" I suppose) in 1403, and why we need to commemorate it. It's a full day event, so you'll be most welcome to come along and have an enjoyable day at all the events going on there.

SWS presents our inaugural 40 Tournament.  We're quite excited that we now have a HUGE 40k membership, and that we're running a competition with other clubs!  

Andrew Rawlings organised the day, single-handedly making this the best competition in this part of the world.  We're looking forward to next year when it can only get bigger.

Here's a link to the gallery of pics from the day.
