Date dependent but I should be free and have two armies

Stewart

Colonel Kilgore · April 15, 2021, 04:47:54 PM

Four of us - if we can all make the event - should make it easy on all concerned

OK chaps
I have sent an e mail.
Next problem is what to wear?

Leslie BT · April 15, 2021, 05:27:37 PM

That little black number!

Colonel Kilgore · April 15, 2021, 05:31:07 PM

Pink Piggy T-shirts and polo shirts?

Simon

Stewart 46A · April 15, 2021, 09:56:40 PM

I think only Martin has Pink (real man) the rest of us minions have the other colours

Stewart

Colonel Kilgore · April 15, 2021, 10:19:05 PM

Maybe mine is "cerise"? That sounds much more macho...

Simon

John Watson · April 15, 2021, 11:00:52 PM

My Piggy polo is a very vivid and lurid green.

I hope you all enjoy your day keeping socially distanced, Martin will be taking his special 2 meter cow prod to enforce it.
Never mind your polo shirt what about the new special Peter Pig branded mask in shocking green with the pink piggy logo!!
You'll need a big bowl of sanitizer to keep your dice in.
And a box to fumigate the figures in to prevent any transmission.

You'll probably need some bandages for the injuries received from the Pikes!!

Oh, and the sandwiches and suitable non alcoholic drinks.

John Watson · April 16, 2021, 06:41:49 PM

Well Les you certainly know how to spoil a chap's fun. Fortunately I won't have to fumigate my troops as they are varnished with a special new anti viral varnish developed by Astrazenica and Newton or was it Windsor-Oxford.

Can I join in? I can practice being polite and promise not to using any of the Anglo Saxon words I hear used a lot around Stoke.

Bosworth is a great battle to study especially in light of recent events.

Hello Sean
i was assuming your participation.
If you can come that would be good.
As a northerner it will be you versus every one else.
Maybe you think that the game can only be done in 28mm?

I have not heard back as to whether we can get a table yet.

Colonel Kilgore · April 17, 2021, 08:18:19 AM

It would be great to see you, Sean. If we get to six players, we could have a battle each to command. Should speed up the game play and leave plenty of time for banter?

Simon

Stewart 46A · April 17, 2021, 11:54:04 AM

Don't forget we can meet for mug of ale and a pie before the battle.
