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...

Battlequest opens yay!

Well it happened at last - I got up early like it was Christmas and was out the door with Roshni at 9:30 lol. Stood about a bit in the cold waiting for him to open like some sort of groupie waiting for signed photos lol
The poor bloke looked knackered, especially after being up til 4am getting ready. Anyhow we were the first customers yay and started looking about. More people came in and bought a few things and a few people said Oh its board games, I thought it was computer games; which was cool I suppose. Anything I picked up a load of Memoir stuff and had a look at the other great games; too many and too much to buy now, but its a gold mine for the future.

I picked up the Russian Front, Pacific Theatre, Air Pack, Campaign Bag and Tigers in the Snow - £90 in all. Nice discount too. Roshni got her and Maya some Top Trumps :)
