Author: WR had the opportunity to spend an enjoyable day down at the local Hobby Day event run by the St Crispins group. As by some of the photos taken, the events list was encompassing for this monthly event held every 2nd Saturday each month. This is becoming a mini miniature and board game convention held every month. So, if you have a chance to come by and, better yet, join in, all are welcome. WR understands the event hours run from 9am to 9pm. Lunch and dinner food/drink is served for a flat $5 and parking is free in one of the local lots out back.
Some of the games seen in the main hall:
Large Flames of War (FOW) “Tankgiving fest” game (8k per side)
Warhamer 40k game
The classic Squad Leader game
Check Your Six (CY6)
Battletech
Stae Wars Xwing
Agents of Smersh
Gorodeczna 1812 with 15mm miniatures
Plus the members working at the painting and construction table.
