The lads hit the road again, with reports from lardy events in Gettysburg, Peterborough and Evesham. As they head to the latter for Operation Market Larden 7, their thoughts turn to the big issue for the show, historical wargames scenarios and their advantages and problems.

They also discuss what's on the workbench with their usual "best bit on the bench" feature and come up with some ideas for scenarios in Normandy and their suggestion of books on that campaign from the Lard Island Library.
