Thank you Angus, that's the nicest thing you've ever said about me but ........ I wasn't involved in town fighting at any time in the game. My sole intention OUTSIDE the built up area was to use my brigadier to keep the other two battalions under control and to try to place them in a defensive posit...

Thanks Dave, I hope that clarifies that for everyone. Your description matches exactly what I wanted to do from the start of the game ie place my brigade commander outside the BUA to allow the other two battalions to set up in the adjacent field to the right of the BUA. One btn set up with it's left...

An excellent game which was in the balance up until the last move of the game. Well done to Adrian and Kevin for planning the whole thing so well. Commiserations to Peter N who took rolling 1s, 2s and 3s up to a fine art. Throw those green dice away Peter. I generally throw like Peter but I had a lu...

This Thomas the Tank thing explains a lot about your wargames command style Dave. Should you be telling us this?

Are you noble French or dastardly allies this weekend? Will it involve shunting?

Would any of you who are available please meet in the Guide Halls at 6.00pm on Friday for set-up. Who knows Kevin and Adrian might like to brief us about how the horrible invaders aim to squash the innocent and gentle, oh did I forget honourable and friendly French soldats. Ah! the peace that a unit...

Thanks for the positive comments about the show lads. We think it ran very well and we have been able to make donations to Combat Stress, Websters High School and the Day Care Centre in Kirriemuir. Martin, nice to see you at the show although we didn't get a chance to have a chat. You'll be pleased ...

The post I put on about TARGE seems to have moved or disappeared. This may be something to do with the attack on the site. Kirriemuir Wargames Club website is "compromised" each year a few weeks before our annual show and for a while was inundated with unpleasant abuses of our site. Unfortunately is...

Colin, Please accept my belated congratulations on your elevation to Grandadhood. The first is always the favourite until they waken you in the middle of the night with, "Is it morning time now?" Seriously you strike me as the perfect Grandad, almost on the same level as Andy, who should of course b...

Kirriemuir Wargames Club meets on the last Sunday of every month and in discussionns a few years ago we agreed to steer clear of that time. In the notes taken during our discussion a number of rule sets were mentioned but we agreed to leave the selection of rules up to Alpha male. However I do agree...

What I was asked to do was note the equivalent dates from this year and translate them forward for next year. They are not in tablets of stone. Some things to consider. One or two folk, myself included, have indicated in the past that they cannot manage the first weekend of the month, I often have d...
