Toy Soldier 21/22 July - Stockport

[Leipziger]

So, contrary to popular belief, the Toy Soldier Blood Bowl has not actually died/been cancelled this year.

Darren informs me that there are some paid up punters and the event is going ahead at the NWGC in Stockport on July 21/22. The event is NAF ranked.

If you'd like to go along then the event is £20 and you need to buy your ticket from the NWGC website:

.... seems very quiet?

I've bought a ticket for the warmachine tournament they are holding at the same event. So I'll try to drop in and see how things are going as well as attatching myself to any pub/curry plans like a parasitic wasp

Due to a lack of a TO, Toy Soldier BB is on hiatus until 2013.

... bugger

Ah well, guess I'll just have to make do with meeting new people.
