Also we need to do a Game Rehearsal for DDay Gold Beach. In Early May after Big Mike comes back from China.
This of course is a game using PBI rules with editions (originally Stewart's idea)to make a Beach Assault with, but all in the flavour of PBI. Anyone can attend as we would love to have help make the game a success, as we 3 have put a lot work into it. Please any suggestions on the day to help make and amend rules to make the game work would be appreciated. I expect about 6 of us but always room for more ?
I know Mike has put an article in new edition of The Mill, to show what we have done so far, probably will be a follow up article in the next one, as we have all put a lot of time and effort in to this game, it is still on going, hoping I can get the tanks done for the end of April

Is the 20th April replacing or addition to 4th May ? Pirate Day ?

martin goddard · March 30, 2019, 09:35:16 AM

Thanks for the support Miles. You have stepped up to the line!
I believe May the 4th is a dedicated star wars day (may the force...) at entoymnet for obvious reasons.

At the moment I am working April 20, away May 25 but can play out May 18

Can I suggest table space permitting? That we have the DDay Rehearsal game 4th May ? Hoping that Stewart and Martin can join us on that day ? As well as everyone else, who can come ? On 11th PP is in Exeter so that doesn't leave us any other weekends in May to do the rehearsal?

Stewart 46A · March 30, 2019, 11:24:15 AM

Miles I tried to book 3 tables for Pirates on the 4th all tables are booked for Star Wars national competition.
What about Dorchester or Weymouth club nights in May?

Unfortunately I am unable to travel away from home as often as I would like. Planning carefully I have had my annual walking holiday and will next be having a long weekend down at Colours with some of my club mates.
