Historicon 2015 After Action Report
Special thanks to all of the GM's who ran DBA events at Historicon this year.
It was fantastic to have players from all over the USA as well as our distinguished Australian friend, Greg.
We had some great games!
Also wanted to share that WADBAG received a special award for our Walk-up DBA event – HMGS AWARD "Pour Encourages Les Autres!"
We were very honored to receive this award. This is the third time we have run similar newbie events designed to introduce new
players to fast play ancient and medieval rules!
