Last Sunday saw the Rejects on our first trip of the year to a wargame show, that being Cavalier in Tonbridge. We've been going to Cavalier for many years now only missing out due to Covid. There was a large Reject turn out, including Postie, Lee, Richard, Steve, newbie Dan and myself. We always arrive a little early and head in for the Bring & Buy before the show actually starts.
Postie did well buying 2 15mm ECW armies for £60 each, if he hadn't of bought them I think I would have.
Now does he need 15mm ECW, no not really he already has a massive 25mm collection that we don't play with!!
