Operation Greif: TO Report and State of the Game

Tournament Wrap Up

It's Monday morning and I'm drinking a coffee trying to wake myself up after a massive day at Operation Greif.

We somehow managed to get together 27 players (plus a Gumby for 28!) which was the largest Bolt Action event ever held in Victoria. Great work team!

Op Greif was held at Tivoli Club, a German bar & restaurant where the historical wargaming group League of Ancients holds their monthly meet-ups. Tivoli proved to be a great venue with lots of space for tables, a selection of german beer on tap and some delicious meals (despite a problem with slow lunch service!). Crucially, it was important to have a bunch of tables and spare terrain at the venue already there which helped us with setting up the night before, so I have to thank Richard Stubbs from LOA for letting us use the venue. I will personally be aiming to get to LOA meetings (third Sunday of every month) and I'm sure we will work out some more events between LOA and the Victorian Bolt Action League.

The Baconburgers Episode Nine: Foreign Fields, Foreign Metas

In this episode, the boys have a bunch of hobby chat, before talking about the upcoming events Operation Greif and Badgacon. We also delve into the hot topic of the month: how should players go about building lists for new metas when you aren't sure what you'll be facing?
