I will be at Drums running my game "Fire As She Bears". Drums is a great small convention. The organizers do a great job, both for the GMs and for the attendees.

I was until a friend of mine asked me to attend his wedding. Well maybe I can cut out early. Could I wear a tux to the convention. Is there a dress code for being too formal?

I'll be the middle aged fat guy that likes to play with toy soldiers.You can't miss me! :) No offense but, who are you with wacky questions like "What are hoplites?"&"what's fire as she bears?"

Hoplites are hops, but with less fat and calories.

"Fire as She Bears" is an age of sail naval game.

Drums is a good little con. Well worth your time if you're in the area or want to take a little drive. They also have a small vendors area, so you never know what will turn up for you to spend your money on.

I am listed as being the GM along with Doug rogers for East cemetary Hill, I wish I could go(I feel bad about the game, sorry). There's asmall chance I can still go, but its not too likely.
