Well, well, well...what do we have here? SPONSORS, that's what!!!

That's right my good people - we have sponsorships coming out of our earholes! I'm talking more prize support than you can shake a stick at.

So who are these illustrious peoples of generosity?

First up we have Tritex Games, who are going to be offering us spot prizes and a winner's prize that will knock your socks off! Take a look at the wide range of geek goodness that they have to offer at https://www.tritex-games.co.uk/

Next we have the excellent Hungry Troll, whose support is no less impressive than the array of Blood Bowl awesomeness available on his webstore over at http://www.hungry-troll.com/

There is also a KR Multicase, from the main Show Sponsor https://www.krmulticase.com/ . A dice tower from Dave's Wargames http://daveswargames.tictail.com/ and a $30 voucher from Kromlech for the best painted team http://www.kromlech.eu/

Last, but not least, the chaps over at Two Drunk Flings podcast couldn't resist themselves when they heard that we were adding, for the first time at Stafford Scramble, a Stunty Cup. They too will be offering up some goodness for the coach with the most in the land of the littlest! You can catch their hilarious podcast over at https://soundcloud.com/user-273323199-694884835


We have built up some fantastic relationships with our show and tournament sponsors and they have pulled out all the stops again for this year's Stafford Scramble II

My NAF Number is #22580

"Well gee, it looks like all the spaces are about to be filled, Batman."
"So it would seem, Robin. I feel for anyone who misses out once the last spots are gone."
"If only there was some way there could be more spaces available, that way even more people could come along."
"Maybe I can help!"
"Great galumping gooseberries, if it isn't Barrage Barry and his Space Making gang!"
"That's right, Robin, me and my gang have increased the size of the tournament to a whopping 32 places! That means more games and more fun!"
"Golly! Did you hear that, Batman? Now we might get our chance to visit the Wargames show AND play in the tournament."
"You're right, Robin. Let's leave Barry and the gang to get the punters in while we batarang ourselves some speed painted Goblins!"

Our crime fighting duo race off into the distance in the Batmobile, looking for a quiet spot to quickly get paint on their miniatures. Will they finish the job in time? Will all 32 spaces be filled by the time of the tournament? Stay tuned to find out!
