Ulster Wargames Society first meeting of 2022.


Attended UWS club today for first meeting of the year (hopefully first of uninterrupted schedule this year) where a couple of games were put on and some mighty waffling with various chaps.

Did not book a table myself this time as unsure if able to attend until last minute but Field of Battle game covering Minden planned for next meeting.

A 20mm Burma game was put on by Phil with some very nice figures and great to see a couple of venerable Airfix 'bamboo huts' in action. 

Rules were I believe a home brew set set at 1:1 skirmish level

Other game by 'Two Davids' and John was a FOGR game of the Siege of Vienna (think was 1200pts apiece on 8' x 4' table), 

Again some really nice 15mm figures that my snap shots fail to do justice too especially the winged Hussars.















The forces (2 reduced Companies plus supports)
















Turks at the gates of Vienna

  1. Re … winged hussars … too kind.
    I think we were robbed!!
    And I obviously blame Mr Brown.

    1. Hi John, lots of very nice figures on both sides but the Hussars always catch the eye.
