Sorting things out

I am slowly getting things sorted and into order after Loki had to step down to concentrate on family. I have made a few big decisions that I hope you will not mind. Any figures that have not yet been posted are not going to go out, I am sorry if you have been waiting for your figures but I just do not think I will have the time to get them posted and returned and based before we need to be running a few test games. The Terrain Mat we will be using is a big investment so I plan to keep this to be used by BfC in (hopefully) future events.
I am slowly contacting our supporters to confirm details but I could do with a quick confirmation from all you blog followers that you will still be happy to support BfC this year and years to come or do you feel we should get this year sorted and call it a day?
I have contacted the reenactment guys and they have confirmed they will be attending. On the weekend I will be staying with my Old man and our friend just down the road from the venue on Saturday night so will check out the local area for some where we can all meet up for a meal and general catch up.
Anyway I had best get off for now as I still have a few emails to fire off

Peace James

 

Terrain Plans

So with the expansion of BfC and the road trip to Europe we have been looking at making transport easy. The figures I can pack securely in travel box's but the original plans for terrain boards would have not left much room in the car for bloggers. After a search around we have been able to get a terrain mat which will be in its own solid postage case. We are using Terrain Mat and at the present moment we are planing to use this for maybe a couple of years BfC before offering it up for auction but plan's are not set in concrete yet.
I would like to thank my Dad (Paul Brewerton) for sorting this out for us.

The dates have been set as the last post showed so if anyone is planning to come along and join the fun let me know so I can sort out numbers. I will be staying overnight on the Saturday so hope that as many Bloggers as possible can get together for a meal and a few drinks

Peace James
 

Triples 2014

Loki steps Down

This charity initiative has been a large focal point in my life this year, however I have reached a point in life where due to my health I have to make some tough decisions, mainly under doctors orders and against my normal character to tough things out. I dont want any sympathy as I will battle on regardless and have the strength of character to do so.

However I am unable to maintain the level of commitment that this projects needs and deal with my other responsibilities so I have to walk away from this venture, and have had to make some dramatic changes that have seen me effectively kill off my business as my health deteriorates. I will still give what support I can but I cannot continue to steer the ship in any shape or form.

I will of course honour my commitment to send out all the work to be painted once I get the outstanding figures and fulfil my obligation to base all the figures and units to give them a cohesive appearance. However this has to be the extent of my commitment.

I am disappointed that I could not see this through to the end of the year, and get it on the road, but I cant guarantee the future at the moment, and must place the needs of my family first which means taking a new career path at the very least to preserve my health.

I am sure the project will continue to grow and be supported by you all with James now heading up this project and see it through to what I hope becomes a very successful conclusion.

I wish you all every success both for now and in the future.

Regards
Loki

New Side bar logos

Thanks to the generosity of PanzerKaput, and some requests for a sidebar logo that works for those with small blog pages. He has reworked the logo and made two versions both of which are below and should work better.

A New look for the Charity

Firstly I want to say a huge thank you to Pete (Panzerkaput's painted review) who has produced some stunning artwork for the blog. Above you will see a new header he has created and in the left side bar a new advert to place on your blogs to promote the site.

For those that want to promote this venture please feel free to use this image on your blogs and create a link back to here:

I am blown away by the generosity shown by all the fellow bloggers in approaching this project and the level of commitment shown to ensure this becomes a success.

I have given the whole blog a small make over and new colour scheme that balances nicely with the new header, hopefully this makes the whole project appear a touch more professional.
