T'other Partizan 2025

Another fine show full of spectacle, no reflections except that stewardless parking with no directional signs and spaces marked was a little chaotic on the runway given the number of attendees involved.

I did not take pictures of a lot of the games way to many for more than one per game in our time slot so I took a varied selection from a handful of games that particularly caught my eye.

First up our chum Kevin's AKA The Iron Brigade fine little samurai game.

Next a Russo-Polish War encounter from Bramley Barn Wargames Club.

Followed up by 1st Corps World War II Eastern Front game, Kamenewo 1941.

Staying with World War II the Old Pikeys Gaming Group Five Games at Arnhem spectacular.

Finally The Bodkins, Hundred Years War Siege of Montargis game 1427. An ultra talented bunch who present outstanding medieval mayhem each year.

Thats all folks I hope you enjoyed my small selection, until next time happy gaming and KBO

Partizan Continued

First up chum Kevin AKA The Iron Brigade put on a splendid ACW game, I really missed chatting with his fellow Brigader, Peter who sadly passed away shortly after the Other Partizan last year.

Next the Perry twins focused on the Peninsular this time, showcasing the new Spanish.

Another Eastern Front game put on by The Chesterfield Old Boys

And finally the Dutch invasion of Hispaniola Circa 1675 by The League of Augburg

The obligatory swag bit

Bases and RUB box insert from the ever reliable Warbases, a Dragon II tow for my 1940 British from Early War Miniatures, an Opel Blitz from Ready to Roll for the 1940 Germans. Adding to the 1940 collection British and German medium mortars with crews and a Semovente SPG crew for the Sciliy project from Eureka, an ice yellow Vallejo paint and wire spears from Pendraken. Finally the second iteration of Chain of Command.

Until next time KBO

Partizan

Today Dave and I made our pilgrimage to Newark for the first of this years Partizan shows, we were joined by Dave's son Matt and grandson Reuben. Another grand day of gaming goodness transpired, we got there around 10.15 and joined queqe which moved very quickly with the two tier entrance of cash only and pre paid and card payment working well. Without further ado here are photos of some of the splendid games on show.
