Fortunately I keep all of my data on an external hard-drive (backed up to a second one), so no data is lost, it&#8217;s just the aggro of reinstalling all of my software, remembering passwords to websites etc. This is my excuse for not having posted so far this week, but I&#8217;m catching up now while I watch Windows install. <\/p>\n<p>This evening&#8217;s post is a reminder about pre-orders for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thejoyof6.co.uk\/\">Joy of Six<\/a> show in Sheffield in just over two weeks&#8217; time. Since Jo6 is a 6mm-themed show, I will only be bringing our 6mm SF range, plus Squadron Commander (as this is also 6mm scale) and the 2mm Small  Scale Scenery range (since I know that at least one game at the show will be using our buildings alongside 6mm figures). I should have a good stock of both packs and individual models for those ranges, including 6mm vehicles, figures and buildings and SCR starter packs, blisters and individual models. I&#8217;ll also have Osprey&#8217;s new <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Blog\/2016\/06\/horizon-wars-in-stock\/\">Horizon Wars<\/a><\/em> rules and Legionnaire Games&#8217; <em>Strike Legion<\/em> books.<\/p>\n<p>I can also bring orders for any of our other ranges, but I will need to know in advance. Because I will be going on a family holiday before the show, I need any more pre-orders for collection at the show by the <strong>end of Monday next week at the latest<\/strong> (July 4th) so that I have time to process them before I leave &#8211; so you only have five more days to get them to me (usual <a href=\"mailto:orders@brigademodels.co.uk\">email address<\/a>, or you can order via the website using the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Shopping\/select.html\">Collect in Person<\/a> option).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"6788\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Blog\/2016\/06\/joy-of-six-reminder\/fhrelease\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/FHRelease.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"720,540\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"FHRelease\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/FHRelease.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/FHRelease.jpg\" alt=\"FHRelease\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6788\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I will have our recent new 6mm buildings (the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Blog\/2016\/06\/micro-colony\/\">Colony Base<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Blog\/2016\/06\/research-in-miniature\/\">Research Base<\/a>) in stock, plus some more that are yet to be released.
