Apologies to everyone who has been missing their regular dose of P.B.Eye candy. It has been a very busy spring for me … Everything from working on the big ECW reenactment event at Naseby in the Summer (Naseby 370) to running my Harfleur game at Salute (SoA at Salute) …
But I have been taking an interest, and here are some splendid 20th Century exhibits from the big show …
(Salute: the Battle of St Vith)
(Paul T running a Bolt Action Pegasus Bridge game)
(Rob running the new PBI game ‘PBI Company Commander’)
(20mm action from Batlegroup Blitzkrieg)
(Peterborough’s elaborate Dambusters challenge)
(Great War: the Turkish lines at Gaza)
I also saw this eye-catching use of screens at Hammerhead …
And an intriguing historical scenario from the Great War featuring an impromptu attack on an airfield by a scouting cavalry patrol …
(1914: French cavalry behind the lines at the Battle of the Marne)
Some good ideas, there …
Things to come? We’ll be back with Operational games on squares shortly, and I’m giving a talk on war art later this month. At CoW my simple naval rules will get a run out using some components of the Battle of the Denmark Strait.
Meanwhile, out of period perhaps, but don’t forget you are invited to the Naseby 370 event on 13/14 June.
