I Showed At Vapnartak 05
I took a wonderful opportunity to show off german games at Vapnartak 05, the York Wargames Society's big annual show in early February. I only had a chance to take a few photos because we were so busy talking to people. I spent 6 hours behind the tables and didn't see anything else all day. But I had a fantastic time and it was a huge success. I reckon we talked directly to at least 100 people and were seen by 300+ more. We gave out the freebies, we got some names and numbers and we should get a regular club going now.

To learn more about german games, have a look at this page.

Thank you very much to my helpers:

Nick Eden, who drove me there early on Sunday morning and helped get everything set-up really quickly.
Wolfgang Scherer who did the mid-day shift and was a great help.
Steve Hedges who did the afternoon, helped pack up & drove me home, plus young Oliver who went out into the crowd to hand out stuff and get more punters.

My thanks to Mike Brooks and York Wargames Society for giving me the free tables in a great location. And thanks to Days Of Wonder, Winning Moves and Kosmos for all the freebies and posters, and to Gordon Lamont for the free copy of Leapfrog which I'm giving away to one of the visitors.

Roll on Vapnartak 06!
