While it has a strong cool factor for a con, I can not see how it would not be a very tight fit if any significant numbers show up. It is in Ohio afterall. That Napoleonics game a few years ago was abomnible and I was on the winning side. But if I was down there I would show up. <br /><br />And of course let us not forget the 'pay-as-you-go extravaganza' of Michi-con June 22-23.The Housemartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14211689142165137364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468757974079920304.post-78679412012522502762012-05-15T07:06:07.279-04:002012-05-15T07:06:07.279-04:00Sadly I am unable to attend, a couple of people fr...Sadly I am unable to attend, a couple of people from our group will be going and (hopefully) taking pictures.<br /><br />Many years back (30+ or so) I belonged to a 54mm figure collectors club that met in Old Fort Wayne in Detroit. It was really cool mto be able to use a part of the historic fort as a venue. The host was Walt Keener who was also working as an historian for the Fort and we were granted free reign to explore. It was grand. <br /><br />Perhaps we should make an effort to tie gaming to other historic sites where possible, the public facilities may rent cheaper than a convention venue.....just a thought.Anton Ryzbakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07844552779982758219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468757974079920304.post-89799701472653705472012-05-14T17:19:43.020-04:002012-05-14T17:19:43.020-04:00What an awesome setting for a wargames event.

You must report on it with lots of pictures.Mad Padrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00410143683610813671noreply@blogger.com
