BBB Bash Day IV - Leeds 1st July 2023 - Update 11 March 2023

 Bash Day update – 11 March 2023

 

Dear All

 

As available on other forums/media......


Here is the latest update for BBB Bash Day, 1st July 2023.

 

1.     Dedicated email.  We’ve set up an email for booking the BBB Bash day.  The address is:  bbb.bashday@gmail.com

2.     We are now opening the sign up lists for games – just send an email and we’ll add you to a game.  As this is early, everyone should get their first choice.  We’ll book people in to the morning session unless notified otherwise.

3.     We’re pleased to announce that Bruce McCallum will be bringing his 28mm Zulu game.  Chris Pringle recently provided an AAR on the “Bloody Big Battles” blog.  Bruce is offering Isandlwana or Nyezane.  It looks fun!

 

We still have room for more games, so if you are thinking of hosting a game, please do not hesitate to contact us.

 

We trust that this is clear, if not, please do not hesitate to contact us on the new email!!

 

Cheers

BBB Bash Day IV - 1st July 2023 - update 24 Feb 2023

 Bloody Big Battles – update 24th Feb 2023

 

We are pleased to announce that a number of BBB players have offered to host games at the Bloody Big Battles Bash Day, which will be held at Leeds Wargames Club on 1st July 2023.  If you fancy two battles (one in the morning, one in the afternoon) in one day, then here are the games on offer so far:

 

ACW                           Chancellorsville

Crimean War              Inkerman

Franco-Prussian          To be confirmed

ACW                           2nd Manassas

Austro-Prussian          Kissengen

Anglo Sikh War          Gujrat (1849)  

Napoleonic 1813         Lutzen*

 

We are hoping to get a couple of other games hosted, but fear not! - we still have spaces/tables available if you have a BBB game that you’d like to host.

 

Our hosts include several veteran BBB players, including Chris Pringle, who wrote the rules and at least two scenario books and Mark Smith, who has just published the Bloody Big Battles in India scenario book.

 

As mentioned before, we are running this event on   Saturday 1st July, so you can have a further day’s wargaming at the excellent Joy of Six show, on Sunday 2nd July.  You don’t even have to leave Yorkshire!!
