A well attended meeting today (16th November). Twenty two players participated in seven games:
Never Mind The Billhooks (de luxe edition)
A 1930’s colonial game, which looked wonderful (not sure they got the grave robbers though).
A Dux Brittanorum campaign game
A 1930s racing game
1940s Battle of Britain game using Blood Red Skies rules
Two DBM (De Bellis Multitudinis) ancients games
These are the proposed Essex Warriors meeting dates for 2026.
All meetings will be held in the Main Hall of Writtle Village Hall, 18 The Green, Writtle CM1 3DU.

Lutzen 1813 using Volley & Bayonet
A big thank you to Richard Lewis for putting on the annual big Napoleonic game using V&B rules. Much fun was had by the players.
The first picture shows the battle getting started as the Coalition forces prepare to attack poor Ney. The second shows the situation as the Guard arrive.
