So just this weekend me and Ian (@WarTrader on Twitter) travelled up to London from the Southwest to visit Salute, a huge wargaming convention put on by the Warlords club. A very good time was had by all, and much shiny was purchased! (Although pics of that will be coming up later in a follow up blog post).

The event was pretty large, and I have to admit I was surprised at the diversity of a lot of the games being shown and demonstrated. While I do not need any more games to play right now, I am certainly keeping an eye on The World of Twilight for a possible future endeavour.

Along the way I got to finally put names to faces of many people I know online (@MarcUpdates – Thank for the accommodation!, @KhadorRed and @JohnnyHawkwind to name a few), and once again I met James Swallow at the Black Library stand. I have to admit I was rather impressed he remembered me as I walked up, but I think that was more to my Domo shirt and mentioning that I was going to Salute on Twitter :P

I have to admit that I am now rather struggling for things to really say, so I shall leave you with the pictures I took at the event with this handy gallery widget below. Enjoy!



Salute 2011 – The Event
Pictures taken during the Salute 2011 event. Mostly interesting and cool looking gaming tables, though I have no idea of which games a lot of them were playing!

More ForgeWorld goodies. I like the Achilles Land Raider, but I still prefer the colours on my Caestus Assault Ram ;)

I fell in love with the model of a Cowgirl riding the dinosaur and just *had* to order it once I got home (they went out of stock at the event)
