One of the stalwarts of Partizan for the last good few years has been Pete Barfield and his colleagues from the Very British Civil Forum. The games they bring to almost every show are not only fascinating, innovative and often highly amusing, they are also beautifully detailed and a joy to look at.
In addition to everything else he does to support this particular wonderful corner of the hobby, Pete has also, for the last decade, been running an annual VBCW campaign called 38Fest which is celebrating its 10th year this year.
Here is Pete's own description of this year's campaign:
"38Fest 10th Year: This Seat of Mars is a
celebration of 1938 A Very British Civil War, where it hopes to bring together
the whole VBCW community with the aim of an international game. Yes
international as some of the players and followers of this are chaps who live
outside of these Isles and it would unfair to exclude them from the enjoyment
of this. So what is being planned is a series of games based on the above
scenario than will feed into the Partizan game on 20th May. ”
This event has been running for the last few months and at Partizan on Sunday Pete and the other UK based members of the Very British Civil Forum will be presenting a game whose parameters have already been set by what has happened in this campaign. 
One thing you can be sure of with the VBCF boys is that there will be a lot of laughter, a lot of chat and a lot to look at with their game so do head over and take a look. The guys always love trying to create new converts to the cause so you can be sure of a warm welcome.
