month links | scrapbook map

So much has gone on this year - the first full one for the Dragon Slayers of course (although we were known as the Sheffield & Mansfield Dragon Slayers back then) - that I really don't know where to start. Ah yes - the internal championships, the Mansfield Warhammer 2000, in January. Oh, and the visit to the Warhammer Open Day. Not forgetting the Scholey GT... blimey... so many stupid pictures of Darren Dabell...

December

December is always a good laugh with the Dragon Slayers. In this year's festive month was the Mansfield Maul II, the first ever sixth edition Warhammer tournament in the UK (if not the world); and also the very first WPS Warhammer 40K GT at which a few of our members deigned to play. Not forgetting the Christmas Curry Night!

November

Normally the WPS GT is in November, but as it had already been and gone we decided to hold a second Dragon Slayer event in December, the Mansfield Maul II - which meant we had to paint up some boards. Who got the job...?

February

The tournament scene in the UK really got going in 2000, with a number of clubs showcasing their first event - with Battle Force Pompey holding the Portsmouth Pillage the week after the Ribble Rumble it meant that our collective other halves weren't too happy, but we simply had to show our faces... if only to begin a certain Adrian McWalter's rise...

January

The usual tournament in January is the Ribble Rumble and 2000 began with no exception: as usual it was a cracking event, but nobody took any pictures. Which was annoying. Still, there was always the Mansfield Warhammer 2000 event.
