We took two scenarios to SALUTE
05 at Kensington Olympia on St George's Day (What could be more
appropriate for such a game as this?) Both Pete and I are veteran show
gamers but taking new, figures, new scenery and a new system is always a
gamble. Pete ran the third scenario of four in his African campaign and
I ran my Finale scenario from the Bone Idol, Tong in London campaign.
The games were extremely well received by both other exhibitors
and the paying customers. The action was fast and furious, the tables
looked great (even though I do say so myself) and by the end of
the day we were exhausted. However we were rewarded for our efforts by
being awarded the Challenger trophy for 2nd best game in show, no mean
feat considering we ran six games between just two of us. We missed the
presentation that year we were just too damned busy. We did have a blast
and still wish to thank those who played.
