Really great weekend.
As usual, Simon and Martin delivered an excellent competition.
Minis, main competition were both different and fun.
Charles and his crew were very welcoming and made everything smooth.
Great attendance with multiple games going from St. Nazaire, beginners playing, city fights and Purpleheart Draw along side 2 ranked tournaments.

Actually, Ian won in the final against Toby. Congratulations Ian, that’s not easy to do.
Final Close Combat. Ian entered with a Japanese Conscript Squad. Toby had a concealed Red Chinese Squad. Toby simply needed to gain Ambush (for withdrawal) or to not be KIA'd. Toby's Ambush roll (-3 mods) = 6. Ian's roll (+2) = Low enough.

Both squads then mutually destroyed each other.

Hard fought Ian Morris win...final Dice Roll of the game.

Best end to a UK Tournament ever ??

I'll do a full write up in due course on the tournament thread. I and Simon really enjoyed running this tournament this year.

Thank you to all the attendees (especially the new faces), to Charles and all the crew at the Bed and Breakfast, and for all our extremely generous sponsors and donators.
