    Would that be The Grand St.Leger Hotel or the St.Leger Tavern?

    Sorry, have to announce my withdrawal from Doncaster, I have double booked a trip to London with Mrs B. Much marital disharmony would ensue if I were to DNA. Quite how I managed to do this I am not sure and my sincere apologies to all.
    (Border Reiver I am good for, double checked that!!)

    Hi Neil, sorry for the delay, I've just got back from my hols.

    Saturday

    Table 3 - Fleet Action
    Table 1 - Photo Recon - Bomb the Target - Parts Urgently Required
    If any of them are full I'm happy to play on any table.

    I will be making the meal, do I have to contact them and book it? I'm not sure what the process is.

    Unfortunately I can only make Saturday now as I'm going to the Derby Wargames on the Sunday with my Grandaughter.

    Cheers

    Excellent idea, Chris!
    Carcassonne is the one I know well.
    Kingmaker - would be sweet, however I played a computer version only years ago.
    The number of potential players is the key question, however. Most of the game are up to 5...
    Pssst! What I dream about is to test you chaps in X-Wing which scales quite fine up to 8 players (tested) in a typical clash between X/W vs T/F, but a table over 90*90 cm is necessary and --- I am not sure if you are ready for such an experience, knowing the hated dice issue.

    Kingmaker is always a good choice for me. Anyone got Settlers of Catan that they can bring along?

    Kingmaker, brilliant game, especially with a group of friends and a few beers. Played many a game on our barrack room balcony in Cyprus in mid 70's drinking cockaneli. The Avalon Hill version was as good but preferred the original

    When other possible boardgames are taken into consideration, please bear in mind this one , "Rebellion", that my buddy Darek (Empire) and me (Rebel) have just started yesterday.
    After 5 turns there are only 3 systems left that actively support the Rebellion (Bothawui, Toydaria and Nal Hutta).

    Han Solo has been captured by the Imperials and carbonized on Mustafar. A rescue mission carried out by young Skylwaker failed...

    But a major rebel pincer operation is about to begin with reinforced fleet starting in Bothawui and a the major force launching from our hidden base on Geonosis (yes!). The Imperial forces in Naboo and Sullust systems are weak and will be subject to some sabotage missions..

    Are you sure this is correct as the Grid in a previous post (#92) has 5 names entered for the B o B game for instance but only 3 on this latest list?
