Jon,
Thanks for the offer!
I'm coming over from the States - Wisconsin, to be exact. This'll be my
first UK show in QUITE some time. I feel quite fortunate that things
worked
out as they did.
And I'm VERY interested to see if British FT games have different
strategies/feels to them than those I've played over here do.
Of course, I'm spoiled here, since I can make it to GenCon every year.
Still, there's LOTS of gaming stuff in the UK - especially as far as
historicals go - that are hard to find here. I'm certainly looking
forward
to Salute - jetlagged though I'll be. :-)
AND I'm bringin' an empty suitcase!
John K.
