One of these days I’ll get so hyped up about BoW events I’ll just walk across the Ocean from Canada to be present at such a things as grumpy old gamers.
What kind of fanfare would we get at an event if we flew across just to play there? Not much, I’d suspect.
Maybe a BoW Olympics? Can you get Elite sport funding for representing Canada at 40K?
I cross the channel regularly to paint there… Andy crosses over from Northern Ireland. Carlos, from Corvus Belli, comes from Spain. Oh, and we had people from Luxembourg at Grumpy old Wargamers.
It’s official, guys : the world isn’t that big. Come over, it’s fun ! 🙂

Nice…….
Had an awesome time at the grumpy old Wargamers convention, the studio tour was ace and I’m glad Justin approved of my shave tyres not beards t-shirt 😉 Wanted to say a personal thanks to Kev for giving me a cracking demo game of Warmachine.
So did Justin try flirting with Joey Berry?
Grumpy’ con was awesome. Big thanks to all who made it possible; wish I could’ve been there for both days (I’ll try to be next year!). If it were minutely possible, I’d love to have another one at Christmas so we can all meet up again this year. A Grumpy Old War Gamers Christmas Bash would be wicked! 🙂
