Board in Brum 7TV Fantasy Day

Greetings folks long time no post! Been a busy start to the year in my work life lately and have struggled to find free time to catch up with blogs and posts. I've done a little bit of painting here and there and last weekend attended a 7TV Fantasy Event at my local store. It was a great turn out with 14 of us playing 7TV whilst an Marvel Crisis Protocol tournament was held in the other half of the gaming hall. It was good to see old friends and met some new ones and have a good natter and roll some dice.

The event was run by Simon Coldrick the store owner as unfortunately Mike Strong couldn't make it. We played 4 game through out the day with a dungeon type game after lunch where each of us all brought along a co star and had to get the centre of the dungeon and escape.

I need to get some pics of my cast but I am never around at home when the light is decent. Hopefully one of the weekends coming up and I will take pics of the Dwarves I got finished for the event.

My Dwarven Throng led by Queen Bjork with her Hammer Maidens and their retinue.



Some but not all of the boards we got to play on during the day.



This was the dungeon board we all started in the outer ring and had to work our way through the dungeon before each ring filled with poison gas. Every turn you rolled for traps and you had to kill monsters and watch out for other players.

It was a lot of fun after a bit of back stabbing we were off and worked together and my Hammer Maiden managed to escape first! Managed to avoid other players and I killed a zombie and wounded a werewolf. Didn't get chance at the final big monster but it was brought down in a combined effort.









Some of the casts I missed a few as they were still being used in games so I didn't get pics of all of them.

    1. There is a few more this Year. One in April which i'm not sure I can make yet and another one in July. Both are Fantasy themed but the April one is being themed on Swashbuckler types which If I'm honest I have no figures for it.

    1. Hi Frank it was a lot of fun. If its run again I may have to be a bit more backstabby if I take a villainous cast.
