Wargames World Championship 2012

 The World Wargames championships were held at the Castle Doninigton  International Exhibiton Centre Derby, for the first time  and I was very impressed by it all , good venue and staff at the centre and friendly  atmosphere that built up as the day progresed , enough room to walk and see and enjoy.
The building was massive and made for a good  feeling.
I took as many pictures of the display games as i could if i forget anyone please forgive me?

Meet some old freinds and people who are just great to talk too always, Andy from Anisty, Dave Thomas and Phil to mention a few but many more...

Overall a good day and highlight to my wargame shows id say, well done to the  organisers
