The Second Anschluss Wargames... Wargames Weekend!
After the storming success of the first wargames weekend in 2025, it’s back.
And Bigger!
Firstly, this weekend is FREE. Yes, that is correct. You will only have to sort out your own accommodation... more on that later.
Let’s put the rest of the info into simple bullet points as a Q&A.
1. When is it?
The weekend of 2nd & 3rd May 2026
2. Where is it?
At the SHQ Building (A Grade 2 Listed Building) at the former RAF West Raynham Airbase.
3. What is special about the SHQ Building?
Here is the FB link... that should give you an idea. https://www.facebook.com/groups/5994602407304548/?locale=en_GB
4. What will be involved?
You will have a choice!
You can play through one or more of our award winning demonstration games, which will be ‘Panzer Lehr Attacks’ (Prize winner at Salute), ‘Biscari’ (Prize Winner at Warfare) and ‘Tobruk’ and the latest Pacific game.
You can fight in Vietnam.
You can play the entire Memoire 44 D-Day game, hosted by the author, John Drewienkiewicz, using figures rather than counters. (It’s a monster!)
You can play through American Civil War historical 1/600 naval actions.
There will be play-tests of several of our latest and yet to be released projects too.
5. Anything else game wise?
Well... yes, but we can’t say just yet. 😉
6. Do you need to know the rules?
No, all that is taken care of, and a full team of umpires will assist you throughout.
7. Are there unlimited places?
After last year, we have expanded the number of people who can be involved. But we suggest you book your place quickly to avoid disappointment.
8. When do I have to confirm by?
As soon as possible via our website.
9. Where would I stay?
We are in the process of arranging discount fees at local B&B and hotels. But feel free to find somewhere yourself if you wish.
10. Can I get a discount on Anschluss Stuff when I come for the weekend?
Yes. You will be offered a whopping 25% discount on all our products, which you can pick up on arrival. You will also get a ‘Goody Bag’ whether you have taken advantage of the discount or not.
11. What about food etc?
There is a cafe, and we will provide food at lunchtime as well as soft drinks, both hot and cold, throughout the weekend when you require them.
12. How do I sign up?
Just send a confirmation email to us. Please remember that this event is one which has limited numbers, so you are advised to respond sooner rather than later.
When you sign up you will get, in due course the details of the weekend.
We look forward to hearing from you.
