Hind Commander

Just a quick post ,I have just found out that the people behind sturmovik Commander has just published a set of helicopter warfare rules ,I have not yet seen them but if they are half as good as the free Sturmovik rules then they will be worth having. I believe they are available in the UK through Caliver Books and on thier own website  http://www.hind-commander.com/

Confirmed support from Ambush Alley Games - Too Fat Lardies - West wind -Northstar-Piers Brand and Baccus .Applied to over to over thirty suppliers for support and only had a refusal from one so expecting the amount of prizes to be a lot larger than lasts years amount ,which ws fantastic to say the least.

Red Faced ..It has been brought to my attention that I've not mentioned on here when the tickets go on sale and from where.....The tickets will go on sale in the next couple of weeks ,depends on how long I'm in hospital but I will announce on here and at the AA forum and on the donations site exactly when . Again they will be sold through the War games Emporium Sheffield shop and through their E shop and Myself and John Grayson will be touring the local clubs . I have just received news of some more excellent prizes and will do a full update next week. Thanks for all the response so far.

Now for the updates on the Raffle we have confirmed prizes from Ambush Alley ,Piers Brand has offered a  limited edition figure painted by his own fair hands and Too fat lardies are donating the new edition of I aint been shot mum plus the limited edition figure of Hugh Jarce to go with it, plus possibly more.
