Probably heresy, but if you are insisting on playing a masters tournament, could not some or most of it be run instead of the Ace of Aces on Sunday?

This is where we are at present, but obviously plenty of time to re-jig things. Need an update from the Sails guys as to what they have planned, as you can see plenty of space for games on the Friday afternoon, although appreciate a lot of folks are travelling on the Friday, but for those who are ready to go from 13:30 plenty of options, its your event so let me know what you want to play. Obviously I can add in some more Wings games but I also have an ever growing boardgame collection which I would be happy to bring down. If you have an idea of which slots you want across the weekend let me know and I will start to populate things (we've made a start on Taranto as you can see above)
Never Knowingly Undergunned !!
I can always drop to Taranto 2 and run something on the WW1 slot opposite, if there are no other takers...
Never Knowingly Undergunned !!
If Andrea is going to run the Tournament, then he will need to be in the first Taranto slot, so we will need to bump somebody to slot 2 (that isn’t running anything in slot 2)…
All fun and games.
Keep the requests coming in and I will do my level best to accommodate everyone

I’ll update that list as well, still quite a few who are still to confirm.

Yarp, same for me. I'm painting up a few planes for the air race. Team Guntruck - think Team Red Bull but sillier.
You are most welcome to munch away at the Brazilian (fnah, fnah). However, having been there three years in a row (and being done by them to the tune of £15 last year ) the boss and I will be trying pastures new this year. If all else fails it will be Taco Bell
And who knows, one day Jill will get her name spelled correctly on the list of runners and riders.......

Nice feature on the museum

The memorial wall must be what the brickies were knocking up the last time we were there. It will be good to see the finished article.

As there is no need to reset the Taranto table I envisage the game running continuously over the 4+ hours. Pilots can drop in out as and when.
Wave 1 is 12 aircraft (historical)
Wave 2 is 9 aircraft (historical)
Game mechanics will be basic with a torpedo/bomb munition respawn point on the table so multiple attacks can be flown by the same aircraft. (At present).
See you on the Dark Side......
Ello Peter. What's involved in "Da Plane Boss Da Plane?"
A game mostly over water where one side must rescue a special passenger from a disabled boat and bring him/her to the safety of Fantasy Island...or the opposite way around...or something different... One side will pick one of several objectives to accomplish and the other side knows something is up but doesn't know the actual objective.
There are still six spaces for players in wave two of Taranto. First come first served.
