And you don't need a hoard of people to man it either.
We all bought a number of things from sellers here, throughout the day.
Lee, Steve and Moi
SEEMS - Tanks in Normandy 1944
And that, is my round up of the games at this years Broadside 2025!
So many good looking games. I must be a simple soul because I keep returning to Granicus and the carpet tiles. It's something everyone can do.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting the pics.
Sometimes simple is the best, Rich!
DeleteWhat a show! Agree, a lot a great games!
ReplyDeleteThere were some great games, Michal.
DeleteSuper report Ray, some great games on show, really inspiring stuff.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, lots of ideas to feed the mind!
DeleteVery good looking gaming tables with interesting topics. I am sure you had a lot of fun there.
ReplyDeleteWe certainly did, Mike!
DeleteFantastic range of games Ray...thanks for sharing. That Gotterdamerung game is superb ... again!
ReplyDeleteIt is rather special isn't it?
DeleteLovely tables, Thanks for doing the rounds with your camera and sharing. The ‘Best in Show’ had some stiff competition, but the city game Gotterdamerung 1945 is a deserving winner ….. a Rapid Fire game too, so double Fab! How are number for the show? Some of the medium sized shows seem to be losing ground to Big Five (York, Partizan x 2, Hammerhead and Salute).
ReplyDeleteI was speaking to Alan one of the Milton Hundred guys, he seemed to think the turn out was around 750, which was big numbers for this show, so all looks good for the show to carry on in the coming years.
DeleteGreat stuff as usual Ray. That Reichstag model and surrounds is particularly impressive, but they all look great.
ReplyDeleteThe Reichstag game is great, it took them 2 years to get it up and running!
DeleteGreat overview! Thank you for taking the time taking the pictures and then posting such a comprehensive view of the show.
ReplyDeleteNo problem Shaun, glad you enjoyed the post.

DeleteSome really striking games on show there Ray, thanks for posting them. Not a show I could visit nowadays sadly.
ReplyDeleteLuckily for me, its a 15 minute drive!!
DeleteSome elaborate setups. The Warhammer one is wild.
ReplyDeleteYeh, I don't think they could have placed another figure on their table!
DeleteGreat photography of equally marvelous games, Ray! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteNo problem Dean. Glad you enjoyed the post.
