Oh... my buddy learned a lesson: this is NOT a great car for a toy soldier convention... but, you know... first world problems:)

Hi,
I was in the morning game for the Napoleonic C&G game where we gallant outnumbered Russians and Austrians gave the French a bloody nose - 18% French losses to Allied 8%.
Any idea who won in the 2nd game that you show?
Chers

Great photos. Those AWI games do look fantastic. #46-47 are of Howard Whitehouse's A Gentleman's War Colonial varient. Old School goodness in 40mm.
Great pics. Always like to see shows from different places. Fresh and exciting games. Thank you for putting these online.
Thanks once again for some wonderful photos.
Wonderful looking games! Very impressive. Thanks for taking the time to take the pics and posting them.
Thanks for taking the time to shoot and display a lot of very nice photos.
By any chance do you know who put on the WW1 game in photos 42-44 and what rules they were using?
