Fall 2011 Schedule or how a good plan goes awry

Hey gang,

So we have a new plan... I've had a request for a couple of games that have necessitated some changes to our schedule for the fall. The new schedule is as follows:

Sept. 3rd - 10mm TYW game - Field of Glory
11:00 am Source Comics & Games
This is Labor Day weekend and we'll see what happens.

Sept. 17th - 25mm Samurai - Field of Glory*
11:00 am Source Comics and Games
*Rules are still under discussion

Oct. 1st -15mm Ancients - Field of Glory
Romans v. Carthage
11:00 am Source Comics and Games
This is a reschedule of the game from 9/17

Oct. 15th - 10mm Napoleonics game - Napoleonic Command
Bavarians v. Russians (or Austrians)
11:00 am Source Comics & Games

Nov. 5th - 15mm SYW - Koenig Kreig
War of Jumbled Alliances
11:00 am Source Comics and Games

Nov. 19th - ReCon
A variety of games during the day
10:00 am Coon Rapids VFW

If you have any questions or comments about the schedule please feel free to let me know. All games welcome all experience levels and generally troops are provided, though you are encouraged to bring your own figures if you have them.

Hope to see you there!

September Schedule

Hey gang,

Here's the schedule for September.

Sept. 3rd - 10mm TYW game - Field of Glory
11:00 am Source Comics & Games
This is Labor Day weekend and we'll see what happens.

Sept. 17 - 15mm Ancients - Field of Glory
Romans v. Carthage
11:00 am Source Comics and Games

For those that weren't able to make the game this weekend, you missed Show-and-Tell. Turns out that there are plenty of Punic troops laying around, both Doug and Noel stopped by to show off their Cartheginians. In addition, Doug has a sizeable collection of Republican Romans too. And Joe K. couldn't resist showing off his large collection of Seleucid troops. Looks like we are ready for a new period of Ancients.

As for the TYW period we should see some new armies come into play. Expect a larger Swedish presence and look for some actual Imperialists to show up at the next game. Should be interesting. I know that the game is slated for the Labor Day weekend but when we last ran a TYW game, which was on the 4th of July weekend, we had an amazing turnout. I hope that we can repeat that in September.

Hope you can make the games.
