I have just entered two AWI games at this year's Historicon convention. The game will feature Fife & Drum Miniatures, of course, and fabulous buildings and terrain by H.G. Walls. I plan on offering the games on Thursday and Friday evenings. Here is a description of the games: "AWI action finds General Cornwallis' British brigade of elite troops on the march looking for Anthony Wayne's Pennsylvania division of Continentals. He is about to find them near a little known place called Brown's Farm, somewhere near Philadelphia. AWI action featuring the new Fife & Drum Miniatures AWI range of figures and scenic terrain by H.G. Walls. Easy to learn Fife & Drum rules determine the outcome." I look forward to seeing all AWI enthusiasts at Historicon, both as a dealer and as a game judge. |

DAF, it sounds good. I will have to stop over and check it out. |

DAF…sounds like a good time. Wish I could be there. May I suggest you getting a signature line that includes a link to your Fife & Drum Miniatures AWI range? It's much easier than looking it up. You know, if someone wanted to, say, look at the new toys for sale? :) Cheers,

DAF, I do not see a listing for your Easy to learn Fife & Drum rules. Unfortunately I will not be able to make it to Historicon to purchase them in person. Thanks, Bill. |

The rules are free, Big Red.  Just send me your e-mail via the PM system on TMP. Fritz likes to give away free stuff. |

Game times are confirmed at 6PM on thursday evening and 7pm on friday evening. They will be listed in the pre-registration listings when they are posted on line. 8 players in each game. I might have to add a Germantown game if Mr. Gundt finishes my Chew House in time. |

"Upon the whole it was a Glorious day-Our men are in the Spirits-and I am confident we shall give them a total defeat the next Action; which is at no great distance." – Anthony Wayne As a former member of Anthony Wayne's Pennsylvanians (recreated of course) I'm sorry that I can't be there to see the outcome of Cornwallis' quest to seek them out. However, I do look forward to seeing the after action report. My first AWI miniatures purchase was through Fife & Drum, based upon reviews here and elsewhere, and the quality of the minis and of the service was beyond expectation. And it's true, Fritz likes to give away free stuff! Now to get them painted and on the table… |
