Hammerhead Report. A good Game and new friends

Well our first fund raising game went well ,we raised a nice  amount for the Royal British Legion , and everyone that played enjoyed the scenario ,we had a mix of new players  and old. Most importantly we met some new friends and I would like to thank Chesterfield Open Gaming Society ( G.O.G.S) for being our hosts .The Society of Twentieth Century Wargamers (S.O.T.C.W) who based on the table adjacent to ours helped with our fund raising , and the guys at Critical Mass Games whose figures we will be using for our tommorow war games , the Critical Mass team kindly sponsered us . And a special mention to the gent who kindly pointed out we were using the wrong shade of flock to represent afghanistan grass  ?.A great Venue and a nice show .

We had the first practice run for our participation game forthis years Hammerhead and triples shows,based on the Road Warrior TV series a British convoy moves through  open country to dash through a small village to safety in the forward base.As in the TV series all might not go well?. Hopefully all will go well at the shows and we will raise some funds for the Royal British Legion as well.More details after the shows ,we dont want to give all the surprises away.
