See you on the Dark Side......

Last night I spoke to Paul the organiser, and he confirmed that we've got a table ready for us on Sunday the 8th of March
Looking forward to this!
I'm looking forward to 12+ Gotha's on the table! (Chris you'd better bring 4 Bristols...you're gonna need them).
See you on the Dark Side......
Bullets?

I don't really know if i should have started a new thread for this but it is really aimed at the people attending WMMS so i thought i would pose the question here. Do we think it would be a good move to purchase some spare copies of WOG from Amazon , retailing at £23.13 at the moment and sell them to anyone interested at the show. I bought a spare myself with this idea in mind
In short Trevor yes, but we must not tread on the toes of the Traders or upset the Organizers by selling goods without paying for a pitch. So we would need to clear it with the Organizing committee.

"Courage is the art of being the only one who knows you're scared to death."
The general thing for selling is, putting on a game we get a table and free entry for a number of members, between , usually 4 and 8.
Traders usually have to pay for their slot, which is why we usually cannot sell items to the public, traders pay for a slot , gamers do not.
The way gamers can sell is a Bring and Buy, or a private sale, but you can't advertise said sale otherwise you become a trader etc .
This is what was explained to me by various organisers of shows we have attended.
I suppose it could depend on the organisers but that is what I have been working to
Indeed this is the generally accepted etiquette. I recall our club getting hauled over the coals at Salute one year because we had a few second hand books for sale and the traders complained. On reflection it seemed an entirely reasonable position for the organisers to take.
Gothas, Yes Stop Bullets, plenty Stop England here we come Stop
See you on the Dark Side......
Where can I find more infos (date, place, how to get there,...) about WMMS?
See you on the Dark Side......
Do we need anymore Gotha's for Sunday, I have 2 if required?
wish I could be there chaps,Have a drink at the mess for me.
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
With the plethora of Biff's coming (Planes not pilots, apologies) I fear we might have need for reinforcements. At present I think we are upto 12+ Gotha's, 3 AEG GIV's and 2 surprise late additions.
Could be the start of a world record, how many Flight of Giants can you get into one game?
See you on the Dark Side......
Just spotted this Neil.
Talk about being on the same wavelength. just have a look at my 8.42 post on Hammerhead.

Sadly will not be able to attend WMMS this year. Can't get a lift and the wife is unable to bring me. Hope everyone has a great time - things look as if they are shaping up very well.

Ok Chaps need a headsup (final one) of who is bringing what. So far we have:
Myself: 4 Gotha, 2 AEG GIV's and 1 Staaken.
Rob: 3 Gotha, 1 AEG GIV, 1 Staaken 1 Freidrichshaven
Hedeby: 2 Gotha.
Trev: 2 Gotha
Tim: 6+ Gotha
Boney10: 2 Gotha, 1 Freidrichahaven.
Anymore, final count tomorrow night so I can get the damage sheet completed. Cheers for everyone who is chipping in.
It's gonna be a bigun! Miss this at your peril.

Just to put everyone in the picture.
1. We set up the flights of giants game.
2. The bombers don't move.
3. The Entente attack. (and get shot down again and again...and again).
4. When the time is up we tally the scores.
5. The only German planes that move will be the 3 escorting AEG GIV's.
Require 3 German pilots. A: to fly the AEG's and B: To fire the guns on the bombers at targets. I will run the damage board again.

Herr Oberstleutnant Kytel will be honoured to fly AEGs for you Neil.
Might even get to win the Ironic Cross 4th Class this time.

"Courage is the art of being the only one who knows you're scared to death."
Sounds like a job for a Bristol Fighter - one should be enough
OK, sheets done for 20 Gotha's, 2 Staaken, 2 Freddies and 3 AEG's.
Looking good for a very, very Target Rich Environment.
Neil
See you on the Dark Side......
Wow, now is there going to be any room at the show for other games or are we just taking every table availabe!
Going to need some very heavy Archie then.
I'm just packing my birds this evening.

Don't forget Swordfish and Albermarls, pretty please.
See you on the Dark Side......
It's Swordfish and Fulmers Neil, unless you fancy a bit of extra painting. The Albacores are not even in the pipeline yet.
We used Fulmers for Taranto at Donny. They are indeed packed for your delectation.

Makes our efforts at TWWS this weekend with six Gothas heading for Ashford seem quite modest ! Have fun chaps
