Ellis Con 2012 will be held in less than 2 weeks, on Saturday, November 17th at the Ellis Technical School, in Danielson, Connecticut. The convention runs from 9AM to 9PM, and cost is $10 USD at the door. The convention is run by and for the benefit of the school's simulation club, and the atmosphere is always friendly and helpful.
As I've mentioned previously, a group of us from the Hartford (CT) Area Historical Gaming Society will be running a "Campaign in a Day" using the Snappy Nappy rules by Russ Lockwood. Each player will command a Corps, and one lucky (?) player on each side will act as Napoleon or Charles, probably in addition to commanding a Reserve formation, depending upon the number of players.
The game itself is planned to run from 11AM to 5PM.
The final map (done with Battle Chronicler) looks like this:

Hope to see some of you there!
