"Game line-up for Colonial Barracks" Topic

Let me first say that the delay in getting this out is mine.

I work as the Office Manager in a landscape architectural firm one block out of the French Quarter and for the past several weeks have been in the midst of "an accounting tsunami"; I barely know what day it is. I am so looking forward to Colonial Barracks VI next week (Nov. 11-12-13) in New Orleans and seeing many friends and partaking in some of the premier Colonial gaming around. A complete schedule with times will be posted on our website before the convention begins, I promise. In the meantime the following will be played in New Orleans next weekend and we hope to see many of you there.

The Rebels Strike Back – AWI "Disperse Ye Damned Rebels" (40mm) John Murdaugh GM (will be run twice)

Looks great! Wish I could make it.

I HATE that I'm aging badly and can barely walk these days.

If I had a Bucket List, going to Colonial Barracks would likely be at the top--though I missed the only thing a notch higher: Going while I could meet Larry Brom one more time.

Best of luck to you all, and to whoever reads this, if you can go at all… GO!

A finer brother/sisterhood of war gamers does not exist in any other genre, and to miss it will one day feel like never again "rolling up!"

TVAG

I want badly to attend this next year -- but I'm worried that I'll have to choose between this and GameHole in Madison. Why are so many great gaming events stacked on top of or right next each other??

Looks Great! Looking forward to attending!

It looks like an awesome line up of games and GM's!
How did it go??? So sad I couldn't make it this year. Hopefully me and the boys will all be back next year.
Cheers,
JB
