Tricorne197109 Jul 2012 8:30 a.m. PST

Dannie Fogleman and I, Ken Bunger, will be hosting a SYW game using my revised Tricorne Rules on Friday at 1:00. We are in the printed program and are looking for players. There will be over 1000 28mm MindenMinis with a few Eureka Saxon cavalry in a supporting role. The game will represent a part of the battlefield at Breslau in 1757.

Even if you don't sign up, please come by to say hello. It would be nice to put more faces to names! If you miss the game, come by the Eureka booth and they can track me down.
There are usually spare gamer spots anyway. I will also be explaining several new amendments to my rules, although first published in 1971 they retain essentially the same concepts.

Sounds great, Ken. Well worth a look in on the action, and good luck with the game!

If I sell all my stuff in Wally's basement early Friday morning I could perhaps make the game. How long will it run as I know I am scheduled to play in a Battle Star Galactica game at six on Friday. I would not want to sign up if I could not follow through.

Thanks,

Kim

I'll be sure to come along and have a look. I've a feeling a game I'm already signed up for clashes with it otherwise I'd love to join in.

It should run 1-5pm.

Ken , I tried to get to HCon in time for your game ,but my 14 hour drive was delayed and rolled in around 11pm Friday. I have been useing your rules( dated 1977 ) for years with my 15mm AWI figs and find them to work quite well . I am however very intrested in any revisions you might have to date . I also was wondering if you plan to print a new run of Tricorne as folks are always asking me if they are still available . Cheers, Mark in Florida

Are the rules – Tricorne – still available? Sombody mention to me that the current rules are 'Tricorne III'. I have, I think, the orginal Tricorne rules, but I presently do not know where they are.

I was not able to make the SYW con this yeay… great hopes for next year.
