The Penultimate Saturday of Challenge IX!

Hi Everyone!

My apologies for the late start today. Last night I hosted a Napoleonic game for the boys (it was a hoot) and I wanted to get that tidied away before I got stuck in with entries today. 

The French Tour of Portugal begins!

Peter, literally overseeing the British defence.


We have a full roster ahead of us with entries for:

  • The Sudan (I wonder who that can be?), 
  • Italian Wars, 
  • WWII, 
  • Star Wars
  • and a series(!) of nuclear strikes from Miles which I think will see him wrest the King of the Sandbag from Ray. Get out your blast goggles...


Stay tuned!

Curt

    1. Maybe it’s time for postcards from Paraguay?

  2. You may be speaking (well, writing) too soon with the suggestion that Miles may be about to oust Ray from that title. I have heard* a rumour that the budgie smuggler has been secretly working on an entire 1 figure= 1 man Roman legion in 15mm.

    * possibly from a mischievous voice in my head ;)

    1. It's entirely likely that Ray would stoop to the low and under-handed tactic of sandbagging. I'm shocked and dismayed that such behavior is allowed in the polite society of the Challenge.

      SHOCKED, I say!
