I know some people like Derek, Mike and Miles are making some specific scenery pieces for AK Day, and others have said they'll bring along their chosen 7 items.
As it stands we need 5 tables. That may increase if we manage to find a couple of extra players, but for now we'll plan on 5.
Can those attending let me know what they plan to bring and whether they can provide a cloth and how many scenery items. I'll collate what resources we have and at least ensure anyones special items get used.
HI
I have a cloth we can use, maybe 2 if needed.
I have made and will be bringing:
Tyre dump - Rough Hill
Sludge reservoir - Marsh
Leaking pipelines - Gully
Factory - Buildings
Shanty town - enough for 2/3 building templates
Power plant/watchmans hut - Building
Wriggly tin walls - Enough for 2 terrain sections
Radio tower - Building
Planned to make
Burnt out trees - enough for 2 templates
Dry river/burnt out bridge - River bed
I still need to make bare templates for these yet but that's just a couple of hours work. Off tio Devon tomorrow to "borrow" some more sand. Nearly out of my Scarborough sand now.
Derek
Sean,
I have a cloth, and aim to make 14 templates. I also have roads.
Force composition for checking purposes is highly classified and will be sent separately.
Simon
I can bring 6x3 mat plus a full set of 14 templates and a load of roads.
I do have enough for upto 2 spare Armies ? Especially infantry Heavy ?
My table will be based on out in the country on a country retreat " lord of the manor" with Manor House and a Farm/warehouse and Cooking Oil production facility.
Miles
My scenery is of an arid / desert nature.

Its a lovely airport set up you have Mike ( im assuming it was the one in the battle pics v. miles?)
Look forward to seeng it up close.
Julian
Julian,
yes, with further additions and a freshly concreted runway - that cheap tarmac we used just melts in the heat.
Your words; "Look forward to seeing it up close", sound ominous....
Mike
OK chaps, listen in.
So far I have the following confirmed as bringing scenery.
1. Julian - mat and 7 scenery items
2. Simon P - mat and 14 scenery pieces
3. Miles - mat plus 14 scenery pieces, plus a spare mat and 7 more scenery pieces.
4. Derek - 1 or 2 mats and 22 scenery pieces.
5. Big Mike - Airport table which has 7 scenery pieces
6. Dene - mat and 7 scenery pieces.
7. Sean - mat and 7 scenery pieces.
I could do with a sit rep from Martin Goddard, Martin Buck, Martyn Simpson and Chris Cunningham as to what you plan to bring amd whether you have a mat or not.
I suspect we will have way more than needed but it helps to have a plan B in case of mishap.
As we are going to have so much scenery and its likely bits and pieces will be borrowed can I suggest all those brings scenery make sure their name is on it somewhere? Makes it a lot easier making sure everybody gets it back.
Cheers
Derek
What Derek says is hereby approved by the committee.
Mine has names on already.
I think you right able the tables, two of us are bring 1 and half tables plus spare mats. I think we should have enough to get the day done ?
On top of that I ve probably got enough roads for 2 tables as well ?
I am all packed up ready for Saturday. Now to go back to what I was doing ? LoL
Miles
have enough roads for 1 table but they are pretty basic but then again it is Africa :o
Derek
Sean
I can bring seven scenery pieces of scenery and a road but no cloth I'm afraid.
Chris
That's all right, Chris - Sean's a man of the cloth ;D
Simon
Simon
Amen to that.
Chris
I thought you were the one bringing the essential rations, Julian? ;D

7 pieces of scenery is just fine Chris. As for cloth, we have plenty of cloth.
Four of us are travelling up in one car.
Sadly there will only be enough space for me to bring 1 table of scenery (I will bring 1 mat).
That will also mean that Miles can only bring 1 table of scenery . Mike will also only bring 1 table of scenery.
Three tables worth coming up.
Miles is usually the kind one who helps out everyone with his scenery. This time however Miles can only bring 1 table of scenery.
Four people each with a normal box will fit in my car.
Four people each with a load of boxes will need 2 cars. ???
martin :)
Great stuff. That will be plenty Martin and thanks for being chauffeur.
