@deltagamegirl22
great coverage from the show thanks to all the team its just been addedd to my future show visit plans. im not sure my bank manager will be as enthusiastic though lol
These blogs really keep me going through the weekends. Thanks BoW crew!
Great to see everyone out enjoying the day, enjoying life and the freedom to do what they enjoy and not give in to fear.
My thoughts are with the people of London after the horrible events of last night, also my thoughts are with the people of Manchester.
People going to events like this despite what has happened shows the resilience of this nation, and the refusal to let hatred and fear rule our lives. Enjoy your day if you are in Birmingham.
There was no obvious increased security at the event on Saturday. Not a bag search, nor any Police, but thankfully all okay.
That’s odd, we had our bags searched every time we went in the building on Friday and Saturday, and also saw sniffer dogs patrolling three times.
Happy sunday guys and have a great day! Thanks for the blogs!
Always love the BoW convention blogs. It’s great to see what’s happening even if I can’t be there myself.
These expos always look like so much fun!
Very nice coverage. Honestly too many interesting things to mention. Great job and safe travels.
I look forward to see Warren in full Viking uniform battling it out in a mock battle 🙂
Really no Age of Sigmar Skirmish
Thanks guys for making us feel part of it all!
looking forward to seeing what turns up today
On our way home after a fantastic weekend! A little tired and a lot skint!! Great to see some familiar wargaming stands there.
First time posting and first time at the Expo. Fantastic 3 days would recommend it to anyone even remotely interested in gaming. One disturbing sight was Warren showing a great deal in the tails of equestria rpg.
I really need to visit some of these cons in the future.
Cant wait to catch up on these later – best way to extend con experience!
Wish i could follow. Actually im in for the price grab.
Doing a great job guys.
Everything looks great so far! Thanks for all the coverage.
Well what a great weekend loads of demos played, feet warn out and spent to much as always . But can’t wait for next year . Great job all.
Amazing coverage. Thanks to the whole team for there great work.
Thanks for covering the expo and all the exciting things there. All the best to everyone there!
This event and BoWs coverage has given me a wee boost to my tabletop gaming (that I’ve sadly neglected) – keep it coming guys! What? Last day? Boo!
Awesome show and great coverage!
Love the beasts of war!
Such good stuff coming out! Thanks to BoW and of course all the prize support! that’s an amazing list!
Happy sunday!! Hardly the same as a weekender but at least ive something to watch!!
.. And that’s a wrap – only now got to walk back to the car, queue out of the carpark and drive home!
WTF am I on – I’m sat here on my sofa… told you it was nearly as good as being there…
… and just think how much money I’ve saved – until I next walk into my FLGS!
Need to catch up on your website. Could not follow the hobby in the last months.
Awww yeah!
I wasn’t going to go to the games expo this year. I watched the coverage earlier today, got in my car and made it for the last few hours. I even saw @warzan but he looked engrossed in a book.
We were there! We had the best time and came home with some new passions to share. My son loved the kids rpgs – thank you so much to the volunteer gms. It was great to play games old and new, and everyone was so friendly. Can’t wait until next year.
Oh man, this looks like so much fun!
Amazing coverage!!
Great job Beast of War Team.
Amazing coverage
so much goodness!
UKGE look amazing! Really hoping to get there next year!
Here we are on the third and final day. It’s been a long weekend but for anyone who attended apparently a fun one. However, since it is the final day then it’s my last chance to shamelessly post as I’m going after either the 4Ground stuff or the Bushido stuff. I play Bushido here in the states. I teach it to whoever will listen, and I just try and represent it as it is. The best miniature game I’ve ever played.
Did someone say prizes?
Was such a great show, really glad to see you guys in person walking around and providing great coverage.
Ghostel was my favourite purchase and loved Fabled Realms from 4ground.
This has been really fun to watch and read and listen to all the games expo coverage. thank you to all the Beasts of War team for doing a stellar job. It means a lot for me, and I’m sure everyone, who cannot, and may not ever get to attend an event like this. Bless the internet and bless the Irish!
Great coverage guys. Nice to see some old favorites and newcomers. The bushido terrain by 4 ground looks amazing. I can’t wait to play with it at our local club!
I wish 4Ground showed more of their new game, but the KS is acoming soon!
Those 7TV minis look cool.
This is my viewing for the next week then 🙂
Brilliant effort team BoW, been binging content on my day off 🙂 wish we had something similar in AU but our Con’s are just local disty’s not the actual vendors / creators.
great coverage
Great job by the BoW team – so many vids to catch up on.
Great amount of content all weekend. Good job!
Wish I could’ve gone there, I always wanted to see how spectre mini’s are in person… I have a few games they could proxy in.
Absolutely the best. Thanks BOW for everything you bring to our hobby.
Bow report – next best thing than to be on Expo 🙂
