So just one picture of our game...more to come when I have the time to fix the pictures:)
I also want to say a BIG thak you to:
Jan, that built the stunning terrain, working late nights the last weeks to get it all finished, the last touch was made in the Salute arena on the morning while we set it all up:)
Colin and Tony that dressed up in medieval costumes and did an exellent job in crowd controling aroud our game, they are really good in Swedish history now, at least about the events in Stockholm 1392;)
Jesper, my club mate that decided to help out to run the game, did a greate work in giving the players a good game during all day I wouldn´t have managed without the help.
Thanks to you all for all 4 for the work you put in the project.
AND a special thank you to all that visited us at Salute and some even participated !
I hope you liked it. I didn´t have time to chat with you all, sorry for that, was quite bussie to run the game, but so, so fun:)
last a picture of my small Salute haul
Great to see the final spread :-)

Hi Michael,
ReplyDeleteIt was great to meet you at last and yes, you are very tall (at least to me!)/
Brilliant game, I've got some good pics that I could send over to you that will be appearing on my Just Add Water and La Journeee Blog. I've got your e-mail address I believe, if not I'll ask you for it on LAF.
Hello matey!
DeleteIndeed was nice to meet at last!
You know vikings are tall ;)
Really glad that you approved our game, I'll be glad yo have some more picture in high-res if possible as several of the ones i took My mobile was out of focus. You please send them to dalauppror@gmail.com
Best regards Michael
I'm so sorry that I missed your game. Ity's always the way with Salute - no matter how many times you think you've wandered around and seen everything, when you get home you remember that you missed things. I even forgot to go to the Perry stand! From the pics I've seen the game looks terrific.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes

I totaly understand, i misses most of the games and stores to, was much more busstider then i thought to run a game even as We were a good crew that managed to give each other breakes.
DeleteGlad that you liked the look of it:)
Best regards Michael
So sad I missed this! The finished setup looks every bit as spectacular as I imagined it would. Nice to hear you had a great time running the games as well.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing more pictures of course!
Would have been nice to have you helping us running the game matey!
DeleteMore pictures on there way
Speaking of the Perry's, did you see their new 100-year war French infantry?
ReplyDeleteThey look a bit like possible allmoge...
Indeed i did, very nice looking minis:)
ReplyDeleteJudging from the pictures and hype from other blogs it seems your demo game was definately a hit :) Great looking stuff
ReplyDeleteGreate to here that bloggens liked our work, or should I say Jan's work with a truly impresive terrain. It was indeed mighty fun to be there and run the game.
DeleteThe final table looks absolutely amazing! And, happy to see that you managed to pick up the long waited Perry light cavalry, looks like you had a great weekend in London!
ReplyDeleteIt was a blast Sören, would have been nice if you had joined in. Michael Perry was kind enought to give me some light cavalery and Also the special cavalery commander mini for My contribution to the info leaflet and Idee of onion helmet;)
DeleteGlad to have met you Michael, it was a long day and just helping Simon gave me an insight into the tremendous effort that goes on in the run up to the day. I didn't get much chance to see anything though yours was a game I made sure I saw early on and thanks for taking 5 to come and see us. That's a few bloggers who I've put faces to names now.
ReplyDeleteSame to you Stuart, very nice to meet you. It was bussi to run a game but i,m glad that you took the time to look at ours and Simon and your effort was well Worth it, looked fantastic!
DeleteSorry I missed your game and meeting you Michael. It was absolutely hectic, my focus was on the trade stands. I only managed to see two games very briefly and then run out of time. I am glad it went well for you.
ReplyDeleteTotaly OK Pat, I know how it is, it would have been nice to get a chanse to say hi, next time:)
DeleteWas great to meet Michael, albeit briefly! The terrain looks splendid, especially the sea. And you have a copy of TtS!, what a fine choice! ;-)
ReplyDeleteIndeed it was Simon ! I would love to get a game of TtS with you sometimes in the future...
DeleteBest regards Michael
That would be a fine thing! One day when I'm not as rushed as Salute. Do you ever come to London?
DeleteFor me, definitely the best game of the show. A great team effort all round and lots of positive comments about your table on other forums.Well done!
ReplyDeleteReally sorry that I didn't see your game - the final result looks great!
