| Once again, a large number of
people worked hard to bring display games of various sorts to the show.
We'd like to thank them all for their efforts, and we look forward to seeing
next year's games These are the games that caught the attention of our judges, and the winners of the tournaments. |

| The Bideford and District Wargamers won Best Demonstration Game with their excellent Siege of Gibraltar game. Whilst the sheer size of the game itself was stunning, our judges were most impressed by the enthusiasm and knowledge they showed when talking to the public, as well as the obvious fun they were having. | ||
