We arrived at the hotel and alerted the other members of our merry band!

The final game pitted everyone's champion and their favorite unit against everyone else for supremacy of the planet.
 |
| We picked the most chaotic table a blood red one |
 |
| Those Orks are about to get fu... |
 |
| Lopez can't wait to watch |
 |
| Paul and Otto antagonizing Erasmus |
 |
| There can be only one! |
 |
| Erasmus you are not it. |
 |
| Asslessman triumphs over all comers |
 |
| Then off to the biggest buffet I've ever seen |
 |
| Isn't it gorgeous! Head over to his blog if you haven't seen it. |
 |
| I had a chance to bust out my Teenage Mutant Ninja Terminators |
 |
| Nico was a brilliant GM and offered sound advice throughout the game |
 |
| Asslessman man ran a gorgeous Epic Titan game |
 |
| Cheetor and Tears of Envy played a wonderful 2nd Ed 40K game over a Necron dig site |
 |
| Thantsants amazing Slann Shrine |
 |
| Alex Jelley's top tier Wolftime campaign was a wondrous sight all weekend long. |
 |
| Got to meet Stuntcat at one of them. |
 |
| It was a treat to see Tytus's Imperial Fist army in person |
 |
| Harry's amazing Mighty Empire's board |
 |
| Then it was time for Aiteal's Strontium Dog Hitler Hunt |
 |

Then a night out in Nottingham.
Sunday saw everyone in top shape ready to get back at it!
 |
| Steady Lads! |
 |
| Erny and Dave's inspiring Warhammer game, a sight to behold! |
 |
| Got a chance to chat with Trish Carden! |

| Then finished up the day playing Cheetor's Terminator survivor game. |
 |
| I played a wrestler |
 |
| Got up on a building to jump onto some terminators |
 |
| Found a couple |
 |
| It did not workout |
 |
| So took command of the Terminator Flyer and killed 3 of my fellow survivors |
 |
| Then got shot down by Pat's rocket launcher |
 |
| It was a real pleasure to see Curis's Psycho Sam waving Old Glory as well. |
As the Three Amigo's headed home....I'm not crying your crying....sniff....sniff
I’m so jealous right now. Seriously, though, thank you for letting the rest of us Yanks live vicariously through you three amigos

ReplyDeleteGood. LOL Glad we got to hangout, and you got to go storm a castle with Bloo!
DeleteCracking pictures report, I'm realy glad to met you in the flesh! And I suppose it not the last time. Great week end for us and the community!
ReplyDeleteNico it was so great to meet in person as well!!! Such a delight,and you ran such an amazing games. Yes we will have to have another meetup, would be amzing to get our chaos armies together on the table.
DeleteWow! you really made the most of the weekend!!
ReplyDeleteGreat to shake hands and have a brief chat on Sunday. I tried to get in and have a look at your Terminator game on Sunday but the place was rammed.
It was the right amount of action for me. LOL Really nice meeting you as well. I'm hoping to get a chance to chat a bit more next year.
DeleteLooks like it was an amazing weekend, my man!
ReplyDeleteIndeed....gonna have to drag you over there one of these years!
DeleteGreat wrap-up. Thanks for sharing all the pics from some amazing games.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I'm off for some eyebleach from the first couple 'o pics... ta' ta'
:)
LMAO....this blog is for the discerning reader.
DeleteMan I'm so going next year
ReplyDeleteTreat yourself to it for sure.
DeleteLooks excellent. Foundry is such a great venue!
ReplyDeleteIt's a great time!
DeleteWoah - need me one of them He Man Tshirts! Cracking write up and always good to see you boys over here for BOYL - lovely surprise to see old Blue too. Got to go now and google that there Brazzers... ;)
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA make sure the wife isnt around. You should get one, they have a Man at Arms and Skeletor one as well. ;) Glad we got to chat and get Blue over as well. I'd like to get a night and hang with the Newark crowd next year, hopefully get a few pints with you.
DeleteAye - figured it might be NSFW ;) I'll have to search a Skeletor one out for sure! That sounds great - we've found a roomier pub than the Organ Grinder now so a few pints down the Prince Rupert next year would be great. Just been suggesting to Blue that we should maybe get a US V. the Brits game going on next year if you've room in the schedule for it? The Battle for Fort Ticonderoga looks ripe for the Orc's Drift treatment and wouldn't need a high miniature count to play possible scenarios...
DeleteThat sounds amazing! I’d totally be down for something like that.
DeleteSteve that's a superb idea.
DeleteLet's have a chat about it at NOTLL in October!
I mean Ticonderoga...not the pub...
DeleteNice one - I'll start firming up a scenario and collecting twigs to make the fort. You down for a whole day's gaming or would you rather be a bit more flexible - I know you Murricans need to make the most of your time while you're over here!
DeleteThought you might be interested in this Streety!
Great stuff - I'll begin firming up a scenario and collecting twigs to make the fort! Thought you might be interested in this Streety! ;)
DeleteI’m fine with a half days worth of gaming Saturday afternoon or morning, or Sunday morning.
DeleteNow I got to figure out how to get my ponies over!!!🤔
DeleteDammit, this is pure awesomeness. It certainly looks like a great weekend! So jealous!
ReplyDeleteIt was the best one yet! Hope next year can top it!!!!
DeleteThanks for the report! Had to be an amazing event. You mention Erny and Dave's Warhammer game, there is any chance to get more pics of the Empire army? I mean do you know if his commander has a blog or so? Cheers!
ReplyDeleteThere is Erny’s: http://ernysplace.blogspot.com/?m=1
DeleteAnd Dave’s: http://snickitstail.blogspot.com/?m=1

DeleteGreat recap Airborne! You got all the highlights and I learned people's online personas. Definitely making a name tag for next time. That way people can avoid me intentionally. ;)
