Hi Ray and Flick 40,
I hope you enjoyed the game. It certainly looked better that I had hoped and the best thing is that we managed to both play the game (a rare event if truth be known for UK demonstration games!) and get a conclusion.
It proves that a 24 by 12 foot table is the only way to stage this game and allow punters and gamers to appreciate the effect of the flank march on the Oldbridge assault.
We had several of the group and a few others taking photographs all weekend and once they are with me I hope to get them on to both this site (may need assistance) and on to our group web site as previously promised.
We don't usually show a display game more than once but the Boyne attracted so much praise over the weekend that I feel we will have to take it on the road. The lads certainly want to play it again and I suspect that we could easily arrange for any interested FT members to play should they wish. Watch this space.
