The Hobby Desk with Rob

Hi I'm Rob 👋

Just your average tabletop gamer trying to reduce the sea of grey plastic in my hobby cupboard and share some pictures and videos of my hobby time along the way 👍

    I got some of the female apocalypse survivors as a free sprue from Warlord last time I ordered with them. I'm saving them up in my pile of shame for when the mood strikes. Some kit bashing videos for Trench crusade or any other games you might like would be nice to see. Cheers

    @@OW... That is a shame, it was out first time attending and we loved it. Hopefully you can make it back again soon! We are hoping to find more localish table top gaming events to us. Our next one we are looking forward to is Wirral Warboot in two weeks and then the Penkridge Wargames Table Top Sale in September.

    Phalanx has always been a very friendly and well organised show with something for everyone, the dedicated wargamer (with most scales represented) to RPGers and boardgamers covering most genres. Always easy to access and park and to top it all off a large and well organised bring and buy sale. What more could you want? If you have never been, give it a try next year, I'm sure you will not be disappointed.

    As our first time attending this year, I was really impressed. Like you say, it has something for everyone no matter your interest in the hobby. I'll definitely be going back next year for sure, I'm already looking forward to it!

    Hi Barry! The show is nearly as old as me then! Really big thank you to you and the other club members for putting it together, I think it's going to be a new yearly tradition for me and my lad. I definitely will, already can't wait for the next one! Thanks again Barry 👏

    This is correct, it was included with the Kickstarter set I got, but not the standard set that is now available. I should add an annotation 👍
