"Often she felt as though she had been picked up and turned about like a kaleidoscope, that all her complacent assumptions had been shaken up and reassembled in a different order." (Judith Lennox)

Kaleidoscopic Consequences, November 23–27, 2017, Naish Holiday Village, Christchurch, Dorset

Dulce et decorum est

A generation after the end of the Great War, surely no-one would be stupid enough to plunge the world into another War? Neville Chamberlain is in Germany negotiating with Herr Hitler to prevent that very idiocy.

In the meanwhile, families and dynasties go on. Tomorrow is the coming of age ball for Bertram Atherton, 2nd son of the Earl & Countess of Linslade. You have been invited as a member of the family, or a close friend, to a dinner party and weekend house party.

Information for Players:The character sheets should be 4-6 pages long. This is a HISTORICAL game where characters are designed to play the full range of social and political attitudes prevalent Britain in 1938. The game is set at a formal dinner party which would, at the time, have required white tie or mess kit for gentlemen and formal evening dress for ladies. Whilst this will not be a formal requirement of the game, it would help the atmosphere if players made a nod in that direction!

Please be aware this is a historical game set in a period when some people sincerely believed gender based stereotypes. The characters have typical political and social attitudes for the period.

Male Players:Min: 8 / Max: 8
Female Players:Min: 7 / Max: 7
Neutral Players:Min: 0 / Max: 0
