A blast from the past: the old rats going to Pride of the Shires

Pride of the Shires is now in its fourth year and I’m looking forward to heading down to Oxford on Saturday. For my list I decided to dust off something from second edition Kings of War to see how it works in third edition.

Back to where it all began: old rats are the best rats

Doing something different: a hobby and theme scored Kings of War event

I started running tournaments a few years ago and really enjoyed it… to begin with. As I went to more and more events, I got to experience some really cool variations on the standard three or four day game I was organising. For the past few months, I’ve been trying to put my finger on the sort of event I want to run, and I think I’ve finally got there.

Now we’re a few months into 2025 it seems time for a bit of a general update about exciting things in the world of fantasy wargaming. I’ll also take the opportunity to give a highly convoluted answer to the question well over 100 people are now asking about that second book.
