This Saturday I went to the Falkirk Wargames
Club's show Carronade 2013.
Gerry Henry presented his superb 10mm Nachod 1866 display as the SESWC contribution. I supported Gerry at the display. I did not know so many people knew about the
Seven Weeks War of 1866.

Other highlights of the show were the League of
Augsburgs 17th century skirmish game, THEM from Bathgate Wargames
club, The Wild Geese from Border Reivers – the latter 2 both being PP
games.

| League of Augsburg - really nice terrain for their skirmish demo game |
 |
| Wild Geese - airfield and DC3 in distance |
The outstanding PP game for me was the 1944
Pacific Carrier attack game by RAF Leuchars.
I really liked it. The public got
to play the attacking Japanese pilots...complete with ceremonial headbands.
