So a lot of us here could not make it to Historicon. Instead we organized a one-day game day at the Liberty Hobby Center in Wheaton, IL. I played in two games and ran one. A few pics:

Big Battle DBA Carrhae: Decisive Roman victory (Parthains did not appreciate how to use their troops until too late – blame it on us noobs):

Battle of Quebec: What-if scenario in which battle commences at 2pm and Bougainville actually shows up on the British flank/rear. A narrow British victory using Black Powder rules.

Sadly I did not get any pics of my 15mmSciFi Bug Hunt. And I did not play in the last game of the day a spectacular 28mm Bocage Battle – WW2 using a Brother Against Brother variant that is quite a bit of fun.

We did the same here in the Philly area. Many of us could not attend so we had our own scaled down affair. Good for you guys.

We did something similar in our group (only on a smaller scale).

Next time, let me know. I'll come run a game.
