The 2016v PBI day is to be held at the Parkstone Poole, ENTOYMENT store. A really nice shop with a load of stock.  The PBI competition will be on Saturday 9th July. There are spare armies f you would ike to borrow one. The games are sped up by having the scenery already set out and the objectives already placed.

I intend to use Italians.  3 platoons, an HMG platoon and a tank section.  It did win it's last game (bit lucky)

Looking forward to this. I was thinking of bringing my late war Germans but will probably bring my old late war US footsloggers. I may win a game at some point.

I would like to thank those that came, it was a bit of an experiment, wether we could get 3 games in ? And if having it in a shop would make any difference to the games and amtmosphere etc ? I think it proved a yes on both issues.
If anybody has any pictures of the event please if your on Facebook place them on the PBI and or RFCM pages. I waiting for Peter from the shop to send me the winners pictures.
Thank you to Stewart for Winning, Simon for 2nd and Tank Hunter for the day and Sean for getting the Wooden Spoon convincely this year !!!!
Next year I will hold it around its usual time of mid-late May to early June. I need people to tell me about Saturday's that would clash with other events etc sooner rather than later so I can get a Picture when best to hold it ?
Thank you those that came to Entoyment and See you there next year ?
