NWA Open Day 2011

No, not the West Coast set gangstar dudes the likes of Snoop, Ice Cube and Ezy-E called their own, but an NWA a little closer to home - the Nunawading Wargames Association - had an open day recently. Dave the Bruce and I went down for a whirl and met Tony B there (damn, we could have a hiphop set with names like that, after all...) and I totally forgot to post any pics.
Thus while my memory's a bit blurry, here they are for posterity!


Flames of War in 20mm
 
28mm Secrets of the Third Reich 
 Note the superheroes hanging about these photos...yes that's the Fantastic Four there!



The table that won Best Something or other
A prize it has apparently won before - I myself voted for the SoTR above not only because of the subject but for the most part because I think new gamers/concepts/systems should be supported rather than prize 49,751 go to ACW. That said, wonderful table and I understand the counter-argument "If Secrets had been better it'd have won. But find it shallow in the light of the number of voting ACW supporters vs the handful of SoTR aficionados" and so the discussion goes on and on (it did at the Open Day, by the way - LOL!) so let's just say "they're both fantastic in their own way"!





Lord of the Rings - Helm's Deep
Another magnificent effort, this one!!!




Classic DBA and a little Fields of Glory




Warhammer
 
More Secrets of the Third Reich

Nic's Eureka Stand


Wanted to get these up as nuking my phone memory
Hope you liked them and maybe grew a little inspiration
Next year it'd be great to bring along a little something ourselves, I think....but I know NWA isn't everyone's cup of tea
