Sweet Jesus in a Ferrari, let Historicon be a cold and distant memory first!

Actually, since I can't make either Fall-In! or H-Con, I have time to plot with my group for Cold Wars.

Sorry about that, as you were…

Great Googly Moogly!!! Are you trying to scare me? I am way behind on my Toys for Tots groveling.

Thanks for the reminder.

Historicon first.

Dan knows that many here (and elsewhere) will pass on Historicon. For those players, vendors and GMs, Fall In is the next convention on their schedule. Why should he wait until after Historicon to promote it?

He's just doing his job as the Fall In director. Keep up the good work, Dan.

P.S.--You might remind everyone about the convention theme (1914, correct?) so we have more time to paint up figures for theme games.

Man… I am just getting set for H'con then the Guns of August in W'burg VA. After those Ill worry about Fall-In.

Can't wait for Fall-In.

47Ronin is absolutely correct. I know personally I need to put in for the time off.

As one of the many that go to Historicon and one of the few that attend Fall-In! I think this is a great move. There is no reason one HMGS convention should be limited in it's dates because of prior conventions.

The earlier the notice about early event registration dates the more likely I am to register an event. I applaud the convention director for Fall-In! for doing this.

What if you're tired of falling in? And what about those freezing cold wars? Brrr! And who is the con artist behind historicon? Did somebody sell the Brooklyn Bridge again?

OK, sorry for the delay… event reg was supposed to open yesterday with the web site being updated… all my fault. I had a lot happen last week personally… flog me at the show if you will.

Ok, the theme is "1914 Home before the leaves fall."
The teeshirt art can be seem here:

The shirt color will be a mustard shade or black with the poster on the front… or back perhaps….??? Of course, there will be the standard HMGS logo and info for the show….

WW1 is my favorite era to game, so expect the themes to be very oriented this way as long as I keep the directorship for the show… I woud like to do an air one and sea, possibly Kitchner one too…. and, of course… have a very special one planned for when the Yanks get involved!

Anyway.. things are slogging forward…..

Having seen the image to be put on the t-shirt I am not a fan of it. So at least you are saving me some money.

historygamer02 Jul 2014 10:24 a.m. PST

Gotta agree with Disco if the yellow and black outline of a soldier (in a soft hat?) is the t-shirt.

A quick google search on WWI art turned up a number of good works:

snurl103 Jul 2014 10:26 p.m. PST

I like that shirt.

TheKing3004 Jul 2014 8:27 a.m. PST

Love the shirt! Can't wait for Fall In!

Santa Moe:

Bring me my stuff to paint for T4T at HCON please. I'm not sure what you want me to do, but the towns folk are finished and the 15mm terrain is well started.
