We actually opened on the 21st but it was my first visit this Monday. We are operating a fairly strict set of protocols in line with Scottish Government advice and a lot of members are not wanting to return just yet but it was good to see 7 of our 8 available tables with games on them.
I played 7YW Rebels and Patriots using a scenario from the Sugar Islands campaign book. I took the French and led the defense of Madame Ducharmety's plantation on Guadeloupe. The redoubtable lady's force was largely made up of armed slaves who provided a determined resistance to the British regulars but after a brisk firefight a highland charge stormed the hill and she she was wounded and captured.
Thanks to Doug for the game. Perhaps I will remember to take pictures next time.
Congratulations on the return to F2F gaming! A photo or two would be most welcome.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan. We are planning on playing a game a month for the next 3 months to complete the scenario book and I must remember to take pictures next time
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to your scenario tests. Reminds me that I need to order Vol 1.
DeleteGood to see FDWC getting back to face to face gaming. Will be doing the same here once the social experiments - Euros and Wimbledon are completed.
ReplyDeleteP & R in 15mm or 28mm for science you know.
Cheers, Ross
Face to face gaming cannot be bettered, although zoom gaming has helped to keep me sane during lockdown
