Wargaming Down Under

Well its been an interesting end to the year so far, we are a few weeks of from christmas and I have yet to do some real gaming in the shed. I did get the 84mm CG refurbed ready for a local event. We also got a few Napoleonic games of Laselle played.

So what has been happening. Besides yet another dark period of Illness which took me a while to get over, the shed has been far from my thoughts. As soon as I get it game ready something else crops up to take over the table. Despite these set backs I have managed to acquire a 28mm Roman Army and have played a few games of Swordpoint. Then another trip to Caliver books got me a excited, Only waited around 20 years for this to come out.

So watch this space, as some 1940 gaming may be on the horizon.
Any ways the biggest thing for me this year was a trip Down Under to see a friend who twisted my arm into playing in a local competition of  Infinity. Needless to say a crash course in the basics and of we went and I got trashed, but I still had fun. 










 
Another highlight of my visit was I got around Sydney and a few of the Museums, one trip put me at Holsworthy Barracks, Liverpool at the Engineer Museum. Here are some of my photos I took.











4 hours from Sydney saw me in Canberra, and I got to look round the National War memorial and museum which was quite an experience.













Oh well there's more to come but this post is getting a bit long so I will sign off for now, till later
