Valleycon 2022

Valleycon 2022 Valleycon 2022 was held on June 11-12 at Whirinake Whare Taonga in sunny Upper Hutt. We had 14 players for a 100 point late war tournament. Battle Plans were used to determine missions. There was a good mix of armies with Soviets taking out the top two places. No US lists were submitted which seemed like a first to me. I’ll definitely be dusting off my decoy panthers after witnessing their exceptional performance!

Thanks to all players for a good spirited weekend of gaming and extra thanks to those who contributed terrain; I look forward to playing next year!

Final results from first to last place were:

Simon McBeth - Soviet Engineer Sappers Sofia Chambers - Soviet Hero Motor Rifles Octavia McBeth - German Recce Tom Leamy - Finnish Infantry Graham Henderson - British Shermans Regan Robinson - British Recce Che Tibby - British Rifle Company/PIAT carrier horde Alex McEwen - Panzer IV/70 Company Richard Steer - British Rifle Company Jon Carryer - German Grenadiers Chris Tolley - Panzer IV Company Pat McShane - NZ Shermans Shane Walters - NZ Shermans Stu Davidson - Panzer IV Company Best Sport - Alex McEwen Best Painted Army - Simon McBeth
