lol, it 'arrived' on Friday, still have not opened it yet, I'm too scared! Maybe it will be like one of those games I bought in a Steam Sale, you know, never gets played.  :2funny:

You do know you're not actually supposed to play these games...

What is the radius of your clipper?  2.5 or 3mm?

I’ve spent half my life’s earning on wargames, women, and drink. The rest I wasted.

You guys so winding "you know who" up by reposting clipped counters.

As for Normandy '44, it's selling for way too much. There's only 3 sellers on BGG. I contacted a Spanish guy on BGG because he was selling his for 45 euros, but he's not got back to me. Other than him, I see it for £300+ around.

It's available for P500 for $50, but it's not ready and pairing would be a huge amount from GMT. I would like to buy it as I have Ardennes and Holland

Wargamers European Market Place - this is a FB group - although I know a lot of people won't use FB -  but just thought I'd mention it.
