As I already reported Crisis was an awesome show. There were a lot of clubs presenting excellent wargaming tables and interesting games. Additionally a lot of internationally well known traders came their and offered their stunning ranges. During the show I took far more than 100 photos and have sorted out the best of them.
But first of all many, many thanks to the TSA for organizing and running this extraordinary event !

But now for the pictures... First for a selection of the traders which were present. Although there were many more like Empress, Pendraken, Wargames Foundry and many more, I picked only those I made personal acquaintance with. For a complete list look here. Unfortunately Stronghold Terrain is missing in my pictures because the stall was always so crowded that I didn't get a nice picture of those nice people.
Sascha and his fellow from Black Hussar miniatures... Excellent 28mm for SYW they have. |
Martin and Diane from Warbases in action... |
Ged from Gringo40s (the handsome chap behind the Space Marine of course). |
Wayne from Wargames Illustrated and his charming wife Vhairi. |

The safe fortress is far away for the Imperial forces. |
The Belgians fought bravely in the rearguard. |
Actually that's it. A great weekend out with the boys and a lot of nice wargaming things to see and to try on Crisis 2014. Although it's a year away I'm looking forward to the succeeding event next year.
Nearly I forgot to mention that I bought a couple of things. No show without loot:
My loot from Crisis 2014. |
But this time only an advance order from Warbases and a couple of single blisters from different companies. One of them is my present for the Santa Clause...

Have a look at those sources. There are some excellent tables I didn't get good photos from. Don't miss them.
Great photos Monty! Thanks again.

DeleteSome nice looking tables there. The Keren table was gorgeous and seemed to defy grafity. The picture of Anne the Dice Bag Lady is priceless. The way she's standing and that look on her face speaks volumes.
