cheers Rob

I live in Sunderland, work in Hartlepool, can travel about an hr maybe, do have a permanent table and games room with plenty of figures and terrain etc and very happy to host games......

do have a couple of mates who I play at home, WFB and a variety of others but neither are that taken with FOG which is a shame as I have a lot of DBM armies waiting to be used

just need to find gamers who play FOG otherwise I'll have to play whatever everyone else plays, which seems to be fantasy battle/ wab.......

Was it you I messaged a while ago about Washington Wargames Club?

Anyway just to let you (and anyone else in the area ) know we are having FOG as one of our annual round robin competitions this year.

Armies either 800 points 15mm or 650 points 25mm (players with only one scale like me will have to borrow/lend armies) - games to played with armies from the same book

cheers Gents, I will be in touch with the washington boys ASAP,

tried the durham club, but after some initial emails it seems newbies have to pop through for a while ad hoc without games arranged. its too far for me to travel for a night of watching and not playing so I left my email with them but nothing since......... :cry:

maybe in the summer when I am not at school!

Remember that there is a FoG tournament as part of the Northern League at Vapnatack in York next weekend. If you haven't entered already you may still be able to get in.

Hiya Jon, Me n Robbo (+ couple of other sometimes) play most weeks at the Hartlepool club. (its the only game i play nowadays) Love to give you a game of singles or doubles, whatever takes ya fancy, play Mondays.

If your at York this weekend drop by the comp and we can sort some dates out - we're chancing our arm in the Northern league, assuming we can get a list in that doesn't have errors.. that Dave R is a stickler.

Or email at crozierpATgooglemailDOTcom

Also play Sundays at Darlo club with a couple of lads from there if thats any use...

Cheers Paul.

Any attempt at bribery will result in immediate negotiation

...if you want a game closer to home there's three of us doing FOG at Leeds, 15 and 25mm. Not too experienced though, played them about 10 times between us.

Hi bobm

Whereabouts would that be? I tried the club at Headingley but it wasn't happening at that point.

I'm not far from you in Rodley but at present i don't have facilities to host a game.

Hi Rob

It's at the Headingley club....but not every week so maybe you just missed us?

There's myself, John Smith and Mick Wokes slowly mastering FOG (as well as WWII small actions).

pm me if you want to take things further....we could have a chat at York on Sunday if you're going.

I live in Newcastle and I've just picked up a copy of FoG. It'll take me a few months to get an army together but I very definitely am looking for opponents.
