Ulster Wargames Society monthly meeting and a busy wee one at that.

Ulster Wargames Society meet up today which saw four large games in action and about 20 attendees which is very good for club.

The brothers Brittain put on a Regimental Fire and Fury bash 'Battle of Iuka 1862' in 15mm which was umpired by Stephen and played by John and the 3 Daves (B, S and T) which sounds like a singing group but definitely isn't ! Game ended as a bloody draw as night fell although Rebs had heavier casualties overall. Mat and trees supplied by moi everything else the brothers stuff.

Jeremy and Andy (aided by the other Jeremy) played a General D'Armee game in 28mm French versus British, think this finished as French win ? Lots of Perry metals and Warlord plastics in use and a rather nice mat.

Mike and Simon had a 6mm game using Blucher to refight Battle of Freidland which saw Russians bloody French but yield the field just before  French Old Guard appeared. Adler on French side, not sure about Russians maybe Heroics and Ros (?), on Mikes very nice plush style mats.

Phil and son who put on a 25mm Sudan big skirmish game with a home brew set (?) played along with Billy and Leslie. Not sure how this turned out but looked as if Fuzzy Wuzzies had hard time advancing against British/Egyptian force ? Some very nice old Ral Partha figures on display in this one.

Not quite sure but I think Dave B showing Dave S how he shot down an Me109 before it could intervene in the battle ??
