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.
Both Rejects Lee and Richard have already put a post up about the show, click there names to see more.
There were some fab looking games to see as well. So lets start with some of those games.

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?
ReplyDeleteI hate to think how much that lot would cost, easily 4 figures!!!
DeleteFantastic stuff Ray you certainly can’t complain about the variety of wargaming as a hobby 👍
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Matt, there's quite a mixture here, that's for sure!
DeleteThey are Les Higgins 20mm and nearer 3500 on the Malpaquet game
