Recent Purchases (Salute and Legionary)

Between Salute and then the local Legionary show in Exeter, I picked up a few new bits and pieces, mostly for use with my Epic Death Guard.

First up, some demons from Magister Militum, for use as Bloodletters:

Salute 2014 Part One - Fantasy Tables

Time for my annual photo-blog of Salute, South London Warlords' big wargaming convention.

There were a lot of incredible tables this year. Starting with...

Salute 2013 Photo-Blog

So this weekend involved the annual trek to London for Salute on Saturday, the biggest dedicated wargaming show in the UK, and possibly Europe.

Rather than shoving all the images into one post, this year I've set up a bunch of sub-galleries and will include only the picks here.

 

Antenociti's Workshop

Jed from AW is working on a new table suitable for Infinity, with a strong jungle/woodland theme. He says it's about 60% done so I'm curious about how it's going to look when it's done!

You've got to love a knitted TARDIS!

PAW 2012 Demo Table Report

Today I was down in Plymouth for day one of Plymouth Association of Wargamers' annual games convention, running an infinity participation table.

Exhausting but a lot of fun, quite a few people appear to have caught the bug - helped by Corvus Belli supplying me with a bunch of promotional blisterpacks, badges and posters to hand out to participants!

Legionary 2011 - Infinity Participation Report

Last Saturday was Legionary, the local wargames convention. The games club that I belong to, the Exeter Inquisition, put on two participation games: a 40k Kill Team game with a small squad of Imperial Guard facing endless waves of zombies and at the other end of the table an urban Infinity setup.
