Hotel Hartenstein - Arnhem 1+2 October 2022

Posted by Dad's Army on 03 Oct 2022, 20:31

Last weekend I went with Benno to Hotel Hartenstein in Arnhem (NL)
where a British group (toofartladies) where playing wargames with fantastic tables.
The part of Arnhem was build in 28mm, so also interesting for locals to see there house.
And since I don't know anything about waregaming, we did participate a game.
Benno was playing with the writer of the game Richard Clarke, so I knew in advance I would loose.
But I can tell it was a fantastic day, I won hahahaha
Even I still have troubles with all those dices and rules...
It was fun to visit the museum again, even bought a figure Jan did paint not long ago (Ernest Hemingway)

Maybe next year the museum will have another day like this, then I will bring it under your attention.

From the website from toofartladies I show U pictures from what we did see.
Cause I am to lazy to upload my own pictures :mrgreen:

Looks fantastic, to me. I visited the Villa Hartenstein when we were in Arnhem in June. They renoveated the museum, which is much more interesting and modern now. Really worth a visit. Next time I would like to share this event, if I could! Please keep us updated.

And I would like to see your Ernest soon! :yeah:

What fantastic scenery , especially as it is for a transportable wargame scenario.

The ‘feel’ of the Dutch town is magnificent.

I have been to this museum and it’s surrounding historical places and this represents the era superbly.

Best wishes,
