We have 2 potential dates. Theme aside can you please let me know if you want
26th November or 10th December, both are Sundays
thanks
SimonRather frustratingly I spoke to Josh again about our entry, and in-between venue moves and change in organisation it has been lost. The venue – being smaller – is now fully booked, so we do not have a space to put a game on

Confirmation of Partizan entry –
Dear Simon
We are pleased to confirm that we have booked for you at Partizan MMXVII on Sunday 21st May at the George Stephenson Exhibition Hall, Newark Showground, a
10ft x 6ft Games Table
We have spoken to the venue and have agreed that there will be the opportunity for us to do some setup on the Saturday afternoon before the show. If any traders or games would like to start their setup at that time they would be very welcome. We do not yet have the exact time for this but will let you know as soon as we have finalised details.
We anticipate having the hall available for setup from 7am on the day. Doors open to the public from 10am officially, though we often let people in from a little before if the weather is inclement. Officially we will close at 4pm. As a courtesy to the paying public please do not start to clear away your tables or stands before 3.30pm.
We will have a steward outside the venue to direct you to your place when you arrive. There are a large number of suitable doors for unloading and you will be directed to the one closest to your stand or games table. As at previous shows we will be providing traders and gamers packs with each table which will contain coffee vouchers and free figures for everyone and raffle entries for the gamers.
As with last year’s shows, in conjunction with Wargames Illustrated and Wargames Soldiers and Strategy magazines we will be presenting three awards. There will be Macfarlane Shield for the best Demonstration Game. The Pete Gill Shield for the best Participation Game and the Editor’s Shield for the overall best game at the show – chosen by the editors of the two magazines. We are extremely grateful for the agreement and help from both magazines.
These awards are in addition to the raffle prize which is open to all games presenting at the show.
If anything happens to prevent you coming PLEASE let us know, so we can re-arrange. As you know we have a waiting list for traders, so if you can’t come we can slot someone else in. Even on the day let us know using the mobile number above. For gamers it is also important to let us know because we hate having bare tables left out.
We hope you have an enjoyable and profitable day,
Best Wishes
Laurence & Richard
Laurence Baldwin and Richard TyndallHi,
can I please get a rallying call for those that intend to enter this please get their tickets online
At the moment its barely viable and the venue would like to have a view on numbers to plan small and catering.
If you were on the fence please come along, its a great day, at a great venue. If you are unfamiliar with the rules it doesn’t matter, there are plenty of experience folk and it more of a pleasant game day rather than some cutthroat competition
thanks
Simonstand ready men, 24th is now confirmed. Battlefield hobbies are just setting up the event within the next couple of days and then you will be able to book your tickets!

SimonJust to confirm – Jon and Pete will organise this event. I’ll put in the entry shortly. Cropredy Bridge (10’x6′) preferred
Please can you help support them with attendance an contribution where required.
thanks
Simonjust a quick note to confirm. I’ve spoken with Paul from Alumwell, and we are planned in now. 8×6 next to the PP stand.
After having a coupe of discussions I think the best thing for this show is to set up a Western game. We have a lot of nice terrain and its a bit of a easy set up. Unless some one has good a good plan AND is willing to back it up with actions I move that we do this.
Simon G please can you confirm your attendance as I’m looking at you to be the ‘game lead’
I’d like to organise a trial run of this game on the 2nd feb, so need a couple of volunteers to participate. So it basically 2 SB games side by side.
This is more of an exercise to see if we need to get any more stuff.Let me know if you want to play
So here is the scoop.
Firts news
Cambrai battle day on 3rd June at Nothe fort.
i will do a lot of work on this soon but not yet
Square bashing rules. 2 games in the day. 5 table frontage at 4feet per table. Units can leave one table and slide on to the next.
using the fort function room, very nice. No cost to players except possibly parking at the Nothe (Easy to park).
9.30 to 5??Details can be sorted as time goes by but the date is probably the deal breaker/maker for you!
5 players per side????thanks
