Back to Hamburger Tactica!

Good to be BACK!

Hamburger Tactica is my most favourite Wargames Show (I've been to Salute, Warfare and local smaller events too). It combines beautiful tables (Germans really excel at this), a good catering of demogames to play, good range of traders and after 4 visits already quite a bunch of nice people I've already gotten to know! Also "bring and buy" has always been a great opportunity to buy stuff you didn't really know you were needing! So it was good to back after too many years of break - I last visited in 2017.

Start - toasting with Michal from www.wargamer.pl - where we make a lot of club orders

 

Turning 50 and celebrating 35 years in the hobby with a BANG!!!

 Seven tables set for my gaming mates

Yes, I turned 50 this Summer and held several parties to my friends and family.

I also painted my first wargaming miniature some 35 years ago (I think it was a Chaos Dwarf of a Dark Elf that we used playing role playing games), so I wanted to set up a special event to celebrate these milestones with my wargaming mates. So on I went and decided to organize a (demo) games day at our Nopat & Taktiikka club here in Helsinki.

I brought miniatures and some terrain too, to set up 7 different games, recruited fellow gamers to run the demos and invited 20+ mates to come and play. Read on to find out what was on the menu!
