Salute 2017 Live Blog

Come and take a look at this piratical and idyllic looking tabletop that was being played over at Salute this year where we focused in on some action on the high seas.

It's a neat looking tabletop and it's always good to see a splash of bright colours.

We stopped in at this game of X-Wing which was being played out in the skies above the final island for Rogue One.

This battle looked rather nifty and it was nice to not have something being played out in space for once!

I also stopped in to see what was up with a bit of Napoleonic skirmishing as we delved into the world of Sharpe's Practice from Too Fat Lardies.

This game had quite the following around it throughout the day.

If you like the idea of Fantastical pirates hitting the high seas then you might want to check out the world of Freebooter's Fate.

This range of miniatures always surprises us every year with their wonderful characters and on top of that the collection continues to grow with every month of new releases.

Head into the world of World War II and check out this rather awesome looking game.

This one looked like it was quite the struggle on the tabletop and it brought things down to a much smaller scale which was neat!

Dave was able to step in and find out about this naval game where you were challenged to try and destroy their Carrier on the tabletop.

Mighty ships were gunning it out with quick play rules and some donated models. Submarines and more were battling it out to see who could take the crown.

I stopped off to find out what was happening with Hornchurch Wargaming Club who were playing a game which featured a lot of hex based mechanics.

This one seemed a lot of fun and it was nice to see people looking back towards more traditional means of tabletop gaming. Hexes mean simple!
