I have been checking the Historicon website every few days since January waiting for them to decide on a theme. A listing finally appeared there, and this year it will be "100 Years of Tanks"

The bad news is that I don't do any armies later than Napoleonic. The good news is that this year I need not disrupt my planned games to accommodate the Theme. :-)

Hmm, Da Vinci "tanks", anyone…

Sorry Peter
but it is specific on 1917 to 2017. (100 Years)

For George, so the following can be Historicon theme games, just don't forget your tank!!!!!

1) Dr Who
2) All's Quiet on Martian Front
3) Zombie Apocalypse
4) Godzilla
5) The Day the Earth stood Still
6) Hero Clicks- Superman- Man of Steel
7) Indian Jones and the Last Crusade

Should be interesting picking the Award this year.

Hmmm. With the various hosting site problems, I was expecting the theme to be "Mobile Warfare; Really, Really, Really Mobile Warfare."

Clearly an opportunity was lost to call it, "Tanks for the Memories."
