Our Thoughts
To Start, it was my (Jonny) very first Clash Of Kings and it was all i could have hoped for and more, you folks were as warm and welcoming as ever. It was fantastic to see so many players enjoying the best fantasy rank and flank game around in a venue full of like minded gamers. It was great to see how many players from other systems stopped in their tracks to share in the spectacle and hopefully now with a free rulebook in hand they will join the ranks and help expand the game even more!
To see so many people come over from abroad to play toy soldiers was incredible, almost as incredible as the ability of the Spanish to party like they did Saturday night AND still win best team and overall 1st and 2nd on Sunday!
Ronnie was overwhelmed by how many Mantic armies there were on display, almost all in fact. The atmosphere was superb and we are all looking forward to an even bigger and even better Clash Of Kings next year!
We will be sharing more pictures and videos throughout the week so do keep an eye out.
A special thanks to the LGT for welcoming us in and providing us with a great venue and a thank you to Ronnie, Elliott and Kyle for all their hard efforts.
Most of all, a massive thank you to all those that took part this year and made it truly special!
