Factory game

Here are some completed shots at Colours.
Thanks to Simon and Richard for their help in Setting up and taking down the game and playing. We didn't get too far as a game as a lot of people were interested in the Details on the table.

Hi Miles,
Lovely setup and I'm glad it generated a lot of interest.

Best wishes,

Ir was a mighty game. I think it was the only constructed game. i.e.built as an entirety.

Impressive Miles. Will this be at the Weekender?

I was one of those interested in the details. Always on the lookout for good modelling ideas.  Impressive set up and detailing

Sean I am happy to take it to the weekend if people actually want to play on it ?
So if enough interest is Generated then I am sure Stewart will put it in the games list. Obviously that's down to everyone attending to put in a request ? As I am not going to put it in the car for nothing ! I am happy to help run the game a couple of times or so over the weekend?
Especially as we are still very much play testing the PBI rules.
If someone wanted to try a different armies as well then I am happy with that too ? Because I need to see what the differences in game play with different armies and their characteristics would play ? As any special or specific rules need to encompass all of this ?
At the moment the game is being run as a late war game, at some point I do want to try it out as an early war game ?
As the "Tank Factories" could be replaced with another type of factory or warehouses? Storage facilities at a Railhead ?
At the moment we want to look at a normal company as per list see how that runs ? How quickly you run out of troops ?  As this is very much a game of attrition? Then we can start to gauge realistically how much extra points we will need to make the game run the full 36 points ?

I think Stewart has space for 4 tables this year?
He will know more.

Discussed with Miles, he will put on a PBI factory type game at the Weymouth Weekend if people want to play.
Miles will bring 400 point British and Russians ,
Players may bring their own 400 point PBI force.

Just let me know what games you wish to play at the Weymouth Weekend

Good job Miles.

Well deserved.

You've spotted that you seemingly no longer own PBI, Martin?

Saves me from snipers of all sorts.

It has happened a few times at shows where customers did not want to speak to me but instead to Nigel or the "owner" Steve Ward.

Fine by me.

The late Robin Hunt spent a  good deal of time abusing (very fruity language)  me at the Colours show assuming I was Steve Ward. He was not willing to believe that I was not Steve Ward but hey Ho.

Anonymity in a crowd can be jolly useful.

I will be sure to send all abusive punters your way in future, Martin - it's not fair that you're missing out on the fun.
