Unfortunately, Richard Talbot has been taken ill and is in hospital, so won't be able to attend Cannoncade 2006 this weekend. This means that BITS will not have a presence there, as none of the rest of the team are either local to the convention or available to travel that weekend.

I'm sure you'll all join me in wishing Richard a swift recovery back to full fighting fitness.

Dom (BITS Webmaster)

BITS team member Richard Talbot advises:

"BITS are happy to announce we will be attending the inaugural show of Cannonade 2006 run by our friends at Falkirk District Wargames Club on 13th May 2006 in Falkirk at Forth Valley College Main Hall from 10.00am onwards.

We will be running demos of our Full Thrust based Starship Combat Game: Power Projection throughout the day using figures from the acclaimed Ground Zero Games range. Come along and play in a Power Projection starship battle with that real "Traveller" feel."

Huge spinal weapons, missiles, fusion guns and sandcasters abound! Can you stop the fleeing enemy cruiser from making it to safety in 4 rounds...?

Richard Talbot is in the final stages of pulling together the latest BITS newsletter, with a plan to release through the usual route after Cannoncade next week.
