Chommers, the home page still says our next event is Jedburgh and is postponed.
Worth updating? I know we don't need to promote it, but it looks a bit.....well......you know.
Yes I know, when I have a spare three hours I'll do it!
Three hours?! Really?
How long do think the Russian kit guides took?
Yay, got to 15 Ruskie bookings with Oddball! In your capables now Stephen...

Headshot is running the bookings so keep an eye open for his announcements...
(buggers things up if I get involved as it all gets confused otherwise!)
Well, it would help if Oddball actually sent the money.
Anyway, no worries. I need to ring Helga to see if she wants a place. I'll stick Che and Marsha down straight away though.
Right, he's paid now. Booking extended to 20 players per side.
Wow! The Germans filled up fast! (AND before Freshman I might add!). What amazes me the most is that we've got 15 Russians already and still plenty of time to get some more. I'm getting very enthused about this event, now it's definitely a "go".
When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!

Same here. Great thing is, now people are getting the Ruskie kit, it really opens up Eastern front games (whohoo! an excuse to wear the Totenkopf kit again )
When we were a Kingdom it was run by a King
When we were an Empire it was run by an Empress
Now we're a country we're run by a..........
And the chance to do Stalingrad, Kharkov, Moscow, Berlin and all the other epic eastern front battles as future events. It's opening up another untapped 4 years of the war, battlewise!
As a side note, it's also nice to not have to rely on "groups" booking en masse, ie, cock company, PBI, etc and being reliant on their goodwill to fill an event.

Sooooo happy to see we've all but filled the Russian side!
A great thought to have when we have our site visit next week.

Yep.
I've had a PM from Hopeless asking if he can book on as German now. I'm keen to fill the Russian side first.
Once we get that last booking (jonsteele is dragging his feet!) I'll open up both sides to 25, but doubt we'll get more than two more per side TBH.
No idea why Dieselmonkey won't book on. He's been on about a Russian game for ages.

I think it's a case of pram minus teddy, same as gadge.

Evo is househunting at the moment, and my impression of things is that he's pretty stressed about it.

OK, the Soviets seem to have stalled on bookings. God knows what Jon Steele's doing.
We've got about 3 Germans itching to book and I said I'd tip them the wink when we re-open.
Are you guys happy to open German bookings with only 19 Soviets booked?
I'll limit German numbers to 25 at the VERY most.
S
Its OK with me - 25 Germans tops, anything up to 25 for Russian. There is still LOADS of time for people to book so no need to hassle them, we have enough already - any more is a bonus.
Fine. Will expand booking to 25 per side this evening.
We already have one taker!
