  • On Saturday 22nd June we attended our first ever wargaming convention, PHALANX 2024!
    Just a quick video sharing our thoughts on the event and showing some of the purchases we made on the day.
    Big thank you to the St. Helens Spartans for putting on the event and we will certainly be going back next year that's for sure!

    Hi Rob this is Barry from the Spartans, thanks for the revue glad you and your son enjoyed the day. The Clubs been running the show since 1992 with the sole intention of keeping the hobby alive in the North West. It warms my heart to know families are attending and enjoying the day. Look me up on the bring and buy next year 😊

      Hi Barry!
      The show is nearly as old as me then! Really big thank you to you and the other club members for putting it together, I think it's going to be a new yearly tradition for me and my lad.
      I definitely will, already can't wait for the next one! Thanks again Barry 👏

    Way back in the day Phalanx was a big deal for me to attend. Now retired its difficult to get to conventions.

      @@OW... That is a shame, it was out first time attending and we loved it. Hopefully you can make it back again soon!
      We are hoping to find more localish table top gaming events to us.
      Our next one we are looking forward to is Wirral Warboot in two weeks and then the Penkridge Wargames Table Top Sale in September.

    Phalanx has always been a very friendly and well organised show with something for everyone, the dedicated wargamer (with most scales represented) to RPGers and boardgamers covering most genres. Always easy to access and park and to top it all off a large and well organised bring and buy sale. What more could you want?
    If you have never been, give it a try next year, I'm sure you will not be disappointed.

      As our first time attending this year, I was really impressed. Like you say, it has something for everyone no matter your interest in the hobby.
      I'll definitely be going back next year for sure, I'm already looking forward to it!
