One of the regular attendees at Hotlead takes a lot of pictures. He cleans them up and burns them to a disk and then mails it to me. This year's disk has 820+ images on it! It arrived when I was rather busy a few weeks back with other things and didn't have time to prowl through the disk and see what there was.
It now being a rather rainy Sunday morning I'll try and post a few of them to show the variety of games we enjoy at
Hotlead. First up, air games.

Keith's taken to aerial gaming with a vengeance. He has aircraft for WW1, every theatre in WW2 and Korea. For WW2 and Korea he uses
Check Your 6! but for WW1 he uses
Algernon Pulls it Off by TFL.

| World War 1 |
This fellow scratch builds all of his WW1 aircraft to (I think) 1/200th scale. Might be 1/300th though. Last year he didn't get any takers for his game but this year he seemed pretty full and ran an extra session.

| MiGs |

| Sabres |
I've wondered if there is a commercial stand suitable for 1/72 scale Second World War aircraft -- not necessarily for air games, but to allow aerial components to land games.
ReplyDeleteI don't know. I made mine out of stiff wire and heavy washers.
