The end of October saw the arrival of Frontlines 2 to The Outpost in Sheffield. It’s been a few months in the making and as my first time organizing an event like this it was a learning curve but in the end it turned out to be a great day! I thought I’d talk a bit about what we did, show you guys some photos and also give out some tips on how to run your own event like this!
Frontlines 2 today chaps! You can catch all the top table action LIVE HERE. We’ve got some top level players coming so be prepared for some hot games!
So recently passed was the UK masters event, the finals of which saw Jamie Perkins (Khador) Take on Andrew Galea (Trollbloods). Needless to say the game was very interesting and captured in its entirety by the good chaps over at SteamForged which then had a commentary added to it by the players themselves.
The more you play wargames the more you realize that the thing that really drives our hobby isn’t the models, the rules or the companies behind them; its the players. Without others Ideas aren’t discussed,projects aren’t encouraged or nutured and games just don’t happen.
I like the idea in investing in the community and the Sheffield one has been coming on leaps and bounds recently so I felt that it was about time we had an online presence!
Today we’ll have a look at a slightly more unusual sort or tournament report, this time coming not form playing it, but form making it all happen! Frontlines was the first tournament I’ve ever organized and run and wow what a learning experience. I’ve certainly got a lot to talk about so lets get to it.
So I am pleased to announce Frontlines, a 35 points Steamroller taking place the 19th May at The Outpost in Sheffield! Click on the image above for the rules pack. Entry is £15 and the day includes 4 games with prizes! Tickets are available in store. Feel free to contact me or the store directly with any questions!
My first event woooo! hope to see you guys there!
SO…
Yes I have been absent a while, shall we say quite a while even but all in a good cause I can assure you! For the past 2 weeks I have been working my butt off getting a shop in sheffield up and running, what kind of shop you may ask? Well a Wargames store of course! Ladies and gentlemen welcome to The Outpost. Continue reading
So due to work picking up and having some more spare cash around I managed to snag one of the few remaining tickets for SmogCon.
What is SmogCon? It’s the first “american” style warmachine convention in the UK! So normally it should be 3 days of warmachine fun! Very nerdy but you gotta love it 😉
