Our Salute 2016 board is coming along nicely, as you can see below. Using the movie North West Frontier / Flames Over India as inspiration, the plan is that our friends at the Sons Of Simon de Montfort Club, Loughborough will run a game set during the Second Afghan War. As you can see, this will involve a rather tired looking train and carriages rattling along the single track railway through a valley, trying to take the passengers to safety after an uprising by local Afghan tribesmen.
Dave Marshall of TM Terrain is working wonders turning our terrain boards from Little Round Top into a windswept corner of the British Empire, aided by Geoff Lacey’s scratchbuilt buildings and plenty of secret ingredients known only to Dave himself. The finished article is only a few weeks away, so keep a lookout for our next update.
