Hello...

Welcome to the Kirklees Wargames Club blog and forum. We are a small group of table-top wargamers who get together weekly to play games which vary from Ancient/Medieval, through English Civil War, American War of Independence, American Civil War, and all things Napoleonic, plus WW2 to Sci-fi and fantasy, using scale-model armies on purpose-built terrain and scenery. We meet at Beaumont Park Visitors Centre, Beaumont Park Road, Huddersfield HD4 7AY on Monday evenings from 6.15pm. New members (over 18) are always welcome. You can just drop in or contact us on: kirkleeswargamesclub@gmail.com. Facebook: Kirklees Wargames Club and Twitter: @KirkleesWC

Targe 2008

Well, it's been a while coming, and probably not worth the wait if the truth be told, but here goes =)

Following are a few hotos I took at the Targe show.

We ended up having a couple of games using the "England Expects..." rules that I wrote for the bi-centenary of the Battle of Trafalgar back in 2005. This time they performed adequately for an American War of Independence naval engagement scenario based around the French attempt to resupply American forces in Massachsetts in 1781.

The rules are very fluid and realistic enough to allow national characteristics.

The games ended in a win and loss for both sides.

We enjoyed it and it appears to have been well received.

Roll on next year.
