Aye - I was planning on coming over about 4, but will pop down as early as I can (once the paint dries ;) )

As it can be a little difficult to find the NWGC, here are some instructions.

1st Floor, Hallam Business Centre,
Hallam Street
Heaviley
Stockport
SK2 6PT

1. If you're coming from the Manchester/Stockport Central direction go South down the A6 for about 1.4 miles until you reach a dirty big church on your right.

Image

2. Go a little further until you see the Bamford Arms on your left

Image

3. Turn right onto Hallam Street.

Image

4. Continue down, the Mill is on your right. There are two car parks - one private one behind the mill (you can get to be turning right before the Mill), and the other is a (free) public one which you can get to by turning right a little earlier.

Image

5. Enter through the street entrance, go up the stairs and turn right at the top.

Well, I don't like asking people to bring terrain (I've had too many bad experiences lugging boxes of hills and woods on trains and public transport). There's plenty of terrain at the centre, but you're very welcome to bring sexy bespoke Epic stuff to inject some flavour and variety in there.

Thanks for hosting the event Chris, it was a great atmosphere and a right brain ache with the different scenarios.

Thanks also to all my opponents for some great games and especially Rug for sacrificing three formations with his second activation in the last game. Still only just beat him 2-1 though.
