The Other Partizan - Another Looong Post, Part 2


Welcome to Part 2 of my, The Other Partizan report.
My favorite game of the day (I expect it was many other peoples fav too) was this thing of beauty!
So I thought I'd start here.

Boondock Sayntes - 28mm Venetians & French vs Ottomans

Apparently it took several years to get this game running!
And I can see why.



























Lincoln Miniature Warfare Society - 28mm Imjin War 
 Joseon Korea Strikes Back








The Iron Brigade - The Wrath of Odin
A Dark Age Saga





This was only a small table, but the Iron Brigade, sure packed a lot of beautifully painted figures, building and terrain in it.








  Westbury Wargamers - 28mm WW2 
 The Battle for Walcheren Island, October 1944

Sheffield & Rotherham Wargames Club -  15mm AK47 
 African Encounter







Sheffield & Rotherham Wargames Club - 3mm Chivalry & Honour 
 Battle of Grandson 1476

Oh yes!
I absolutely loved this game, yes small figures aren't everyone's cup o tea, but they are mine and the Rejects. The chap in charge, (sorry I forgot your name) explained that all the figures are 3D printed, I asked when's he gonna start selling them, he quickly changed the subject!




The Swiss pikeblocks were remarkably solid, so solid the chap picked up a stand and combed his hair with them!
I wants some!!!


The detail on the figures is amazing!





The woods looked familier??
It my bathroom mat cut up!





A very well done!


Too Fat Lardies - Holding Oosterbeek
WWII Chain of Command
An amazing setup
I'd love to have a game on this board.
















Two random shots up and down the hall.
Anyone spot themselves?

  7. So much to enjoy: thanks for taking the time to put together the virtual ride along! I saw a youtube video of the convention with some of the games. Still love seeing it in blog form, though (blogs ain't dead). I have to say I enjoy the names of some of the clubs. My favorite was the Hornsea Contemptibles :)
