Most of the Rejects paid our annual homage to Tonbridge to once again visit Cavalier Wargames Show.
It was a great show I picked up lots of bits n bobs, more on those later.

  1. The D&D setup is really cool. And the Star Wars one - anything Star Wars is expensive so can you imagine how much money went into that setup?
