\nIf you’re in Canada, you’ll know that your posties are on strike again. Consequently, Royal Mail have suspended deliveries to Canada once more. So any Canadian orders will still be processed and packed, but will have to sit in a box in the corner of the workshop until services resume again. Apologies to all our Canadian customers for this, but it really is circumstances beyond our control. We will look into adding an option for courier shipping (probably UPS) as an alternative service – it’ll be slightly more expensive (maybe a couple of pounds more per order) but will bypass the Canada Post strike. We’ll post details as soon as that is active.<\/p>\n

Onto more positive news – our final show of the year is RE-Play<\/a> at the Royal Engineers Museum<\/a> in Gillingham, Kent. It’s a great little show with the games and traders spread out amongst the exhibits – we spent the show under the nose of a Harrier jumpjet one year. As always, pre-orders are welcome – you can place them through the website using the ‘Collect at Show’ shipping option to avoid postage charges, or just email us<\/a> a list and pay on the day.<\/p>\n

It’s also your last chance to see (and play) the Maidstone Wargames Society Battlezone<\/a> game which we had a hand in. Essentially it’s What A Tanker! with vector graphics. <\/p>\n
