Just want to thank all those that made Historicon 2016 a success and especially those who played in my Siege of Mai Dun game. Rome won the Friday afternoon game and was fought to a draw in the evening game. Link to the pictures below link |

Wow! Superb terrain. What rules did you use? |

I have used rules I wrote called Siege Swein Forkbeard's Castle. We have run many sieges using these rules. Years ago with our late friend Peter Hess we ran our biggest games the Siege of Constantinople and The Great Siege of Malta. They have been very successful. |

I hope to give them a try at some future convention. I have long wondered how to make a siege game fun and interesting. |

I agree with Shagnasty and IronMarshal! |

Thank you all!!! For next year we are tossing around an idea of doing Sieges Through The Ages. Three sieges, Mai Dun, Swein Forkbeard's medieval castle and the Siege of St. Elmo (we did The Great Siege of Malta years ago in the Lobby of the Host). |
