What's this blog all about?

"Board games? You play board games?" I hear you say... yes, but not unlike any board games you've probably ever heard of. Monopoly? Cluedo? Guess Who? Battleships? No, not by a long shot. One day someone introduced me to a great little game called "Carcassonne" - named after a French medieval town of rambling streets, walls and sections - where the aim is to score the most points using little random squares of road, walls and cities.
I was hooked and so began my, then our - the Bradshaw Tribe, adventure into Euro- and Ameritrash- gaming...

Last piece of Memoir 44 products bought - Breakthrough maps!

The Breakthrough Maps for Memoir '44 have been on the shelf at Andys Battlequest Games for quite some time now - and each time I have gone into the shop I have picked it up and had a look and put it down again. In this period of Christmas sales and being silly with money, I picked it up and decided to buy it - I spend £50 a week on petrol just to drive back and forth from work yet I fretting for about a year over £28 for the maps. The maps themselves are ENORMOUS and cover a large part of our lounge floor, so a table will be no use. There are two maps in all, with two sides - snow, green fields, desert and beach. Plus it comes with a set of large scale games that make use of the maps. Now I have all of the Memoir '44 items so I had better start putting them to use!
