Hey gang,
Here it is, we've just run the second game of March and I haven't done anything with the schedule in a while. Time to line up some new games. Here's the offerings so far:
Saturday - Apr 7th
15mm SYW - Koenig Krieg
Wars of the Jumbled Alliances
11am Source Comics and Games
Saturday - Apr 21st
15mm ACW - Regimental Fire & Fury
11am Source Comics and Games
Saturday - May 5th
15mm Ancients - Field of Glory
Early Imperial Romans v. the World
11am Source Comics and Games
Saturday - Apr 19th
25mm SYW - Rules to be determined
Wars of the Jumbled Alliances on a Grand Scale
11am Source Comics and Games
For our next upcoming game I'll be running another in our series of Wars of the Jumbled Alliances. We have some new players and at least one new state, the Sardinians, that will be making their appearance on the field of battle. After that, Doug Martin will be running another Regimental Fire & Fury game for the second game of April. The first game of RF&F was very entertaining and this next one should be too.
The first game of May will be another Early Imperial Roman game using Osprey's Field of Glory rules and the opponent is yet to be determined. Tom Zwirn and I will be running the Ancients game. The second game of May will be an experimental SYW game in 25s to be run by Jeff Johnson. Jeff's game should be a hoot but it has a limited amount of positions available, 8 player max right now, so be there early for the game. If there is room available we may try to run a 15mm SYW game concurrent with Jeff's.
Just a couple of notes about the games, all experience levels are welcome and all figures are provided, though we welcome people who bring their own figures. These games will also be played at the new Source, so I am not sure what the playing space is going to be like. I know that the venerable sand table will be moved over to the new location soon though.
All these games will be fun and I hope to see you there!

ReCon, March 3rd
Hey gang,
Just a correction. Tom says the game he will run at ReCon will be SYW using Koenig Krieg. He would like everyone to bring their troops and he will be putting on a Wars of the Jumbled Alliances scenario. Tom will be bringing his Prussians and Russians for those who do not have troops. It'll be a great time so I hope you can make it.

March 17th Game
Hey folks,
Doug Martin has graciously volunteered to put on the March 17th game. The game will be a 15mm WWII battle between the Germans and Brits in the ETO. The rules are Battlefront and the figures will all be provided. Should be a great time!

Winter 2012 Schedule
Hey gang,
As we head into February our schedule will be getting really wild. We will be playing our first weekend game in February at the Source and then we will be taking our show on the road.
The third weekend we will be putting on a number of games at the Con of the North in conjunction with the Source. This is a cool con so c'mon by. We'll be playing some SYW, Napoleonics, and a whole lot more.
Next, the first Saturday in March is the next ReCon. The plan is to put on a game or two there too. Tom wants a TYW rematch, so be there. It's close and fun and you get a chance to see what others in the area are up to.
We'll be heading back to the Source on the third Saturday of March. The games for the third weekend in March and the first weekend in April have not been decided yet, so let me know if there is something you want to run or see run on those dates. Doug Martin will be running another game of Regimental Fire & Fury on the third Saturday of April.

February Schedule and Beyond
Hey folks,
Happy New Year! It is already 2012 and we have many exciting things planned for this year. First, it is the 200th anniversary of Napoleon's invasion of Russia. Some of the gang are working on a refight of the Battle of Moskva/Borodino using Napoleon's Battles. We will be previewing the game at Con of the North and looking at a bigger game, allowing for some of the strategic options discussed by historians, for later this summer. Stay tuned for that.
In addition, Chris Combs and I will be putting the final touches on our Battle of Warburg game which will also demo at CotN in February. All of the right troops should be available for this demo and, if all goes well, Chris and I plan to bring it to the SYW Con in March to represent the club. Wish us luck.
And finally, the Source is planning to relocate in February to their new location opposite Har Mar Mall on Snelling. They are going into the space next to Eric's Bike Shop. This location offers more retail space for the store and more parking, but it is playing hobb with our gaming schedule. I am reliably informed that there will be gaming space for us on Jan. 21st, though where is still a question. Also, our game on Feb. 4th will still be going on so come and see LaSalle demonstrated. Bruce Peglow has volunteered to put on the game and provide the figures. Should be a good time! Add the following to your calendar:
Saturday - Feb 4th
15mm Napoleonics - LaSalle
Peninsular Campaign
French v. British & Allies
11am Source Comics and Games
The weekend of Feb 17th - 19th is Con of the North. We have several games scheduled for that convention and hope to see you there. The list of games is as follows:
25mm ACW using Brother Against Brother
15mm SYW using Koenig Krieg, the Battle of Warburg
15mm Napoleonics using Napoleon's Battles, Battle of Moskva/Borodino
15mm SYW using Koenig Krieg, Wars of the Jumbled Alliances
25mm Napoleonics using Horse, Musket, & Gun
We are always looking for new games and people to run them. Please contact me if you are interested in a particular period and/or want to run a game.

Schedule Changes
Hey gang,
Due to some things beyond our control there are some changes to the schedule. The Source will be having their huge Customer Appreciation sale on Saturday, Dec. 17th. Because of this we will be cancelling the game at the Source as there will be no room for our game. Right now we are looking at moving the game to Jeff Johnson's place and changing the game from 25mm Napoleonics to 15mm ACW.
In addition, the game on Jan. 21st is now tentative because of the Source's move to their new location. In talking to Bob of the Source one of three things will happen that day. We will either be playing at the old location (if there are tables) or we will be playing at the new location or we will be relocating. I will keep you informed.
