Tentative Winter Schedule - Pt. 1

Hey gang,

It's time to look ahead and plan out what we are going to do for the next 3 months or so.  We need games for the Nov. - Jan. period now.  I've received the following offerings for the schedule:
Nov. 3rd - 15mm Napoleonics using FoGN.
Dec. 10th - ReCon and a monster SYW game using KK.  More games to follow.
Jan. 19th - 10mm Napoleonics using Napoleonic Command.

As you can see, this leaves a lot of space for games.  Contact me if you want to run something or let me know what you are interested in seeing us run in the future.  I'm hoping to organize a TYW game and a Regimental Fire & Fury game sometime in that schedule.

Hope to see you there!

Game on Saturday, July 30th

Hey gang,

Elliott James has decided to add another Napoleonic Command game to the schedule this month. As you probably know by now he has had to roll his Misfits of Gaming group in with another, the Geek Partnership Society. This has brought him a number of advantages, including the use of their clubhouse. Included below are the specifics of Elliott's game:
"I'm going to be putting on another NC game on 7/30, sorry for the short notice.

Venue will be Geek Partnership Society,1121 Jackson Street NE Ste 105 & 135Mpls, MN 554413
Jackson is one street west of Central at Broadway. Jeff, this is the site I'm suggesting if we need a public/private venue away from the Source. If you can support I would be greatful.

Elliott"

Hope you can make it.

Upcoming Game - June 5th

Elliott James will be putting on a 10mm Napoleonics game using Napoleonic Command. The game will be put on at The Source and will begin around 11:00 am. As always, all experience levels will be welcome and figures will be provided (though you are strongly encouraged to bring your own.) We hope to see you there.

Upcoming Schedule - Late August thru October

Hey guys,

Here’s the Centurion’s upcoming schedule for the remainder of August through October:

Aug. 15th 25mm Napoleonics using Horse, Musket, and Gun. Set in the 1809 Campaign, this game will be presented by Jeff Johnson.

Sept. 5th 10mm Napoleonics using Napoleonic Command. Set in the War of Liberation—1813-14, this game will be presented by Elliott James.

Sept. 13th 10mm Napoleonics using Napoleonic Command. This game is being presented by MISFITS and Elliott James.

Sept. 19th This is a bye week right now as the Source will be hosting a world-wide D&D extravaganza. We are looking at other locations.

Oct. 3rd 25mm ACW. This game was requested by Joel Gregory and details are still being worked out.

Oct. 17th 15mm SYW using Koenig Krieg. Another round of the Wars of the Jumbled Alliances. Will the French take the field? Will the Turks burn another church? And were the heck is that pesky Blau Kurfurst? Find the answers on the 17th.

As always all of these games will be put on at the Source and will begin around 11:00 am. All experience levels welcome and you are encouraged to bring your own troops to the games. If you have any questions or comments please contact me.

Sunday - August 9th

Posted for Elliot

Some of you may know that I have been appointed as one of the gaming coordinator of MISFITs (the local SF club) - that means subversion of SF/Steampunk/Warhammer/RPG's to historical gaming or an extra date for the Centurions depending on how you look at things.

This will become a regular fixture on the gaming calendar.

My first meeting will be on Sunday August 9th at the Source. I will be there at 12 noon to set up with the game starting at 1pm.

Rules: Napoleonic Command
Scale 10mm
Scenario driven game - either 1809 or maybe 1813 if I can finish my Russians ('m 1 reg and 3 batteries short of a division).

If you can support it would be great

Let me know if you can make this one.

Elliott

May 16th Follow Up

I realize that this is a little late, but I have been suffering through computer issues and have not had a chance to post anything about the game on May 16th.

First, I would like to sincerely thank Elliott for taking the time and effort to set up such an interesting scenario. He put a lot of effort into the figures and terrain and, as a result, put on a beautiful scenario for which my pictures do no justice. To be sure it was a challenging scenario and I, for one, look forward to another replay so that I can try it from the Austrian side.

Second, I want to thank all of the players who attended. We had a good turnout of six players for the scenario and could have handled a couple more. I'd also like to mention that the Source employees were helpful and attentative to our needs.

Elliott has offered to run another scenario on June 20th. Stop by and play, it'll be a good time!

Saturday - June 20th

Hi gang,

I've volunteered to run the game on June 20th.

Rules - Napoleonic Command
Scale 10mm

I'm not sure if it will be 1809, or 1813. If I'm really evil, or there is demand for the option, it will be Austrians versus Neapolitans in 1815.
