Haven't attended in years, and can't find a PEL on line. Can any of the faithful tell me what normally runs at Little Wars by way of horse & musket games? Ideally, games which won't require me to already be familiar with the rules, or trust a computer?

Past time to be making plans for next year. Thanks.

With the convention being at the end of April, I suspect that you will not find a PEL online at this point. Likely better to able to find it sometime in February or March of 2019.

Last year's PEL is still online for reference for what it may be worth. Nothing yet as Fitzovich mentioned for next year.

I go every year, plenty of horse and musket games there. I've seen Napoleonics of course, ACW, Am Rev, WSS, GNW, War of 1812, and more.
I put on a King Philips War game last LW.

I'm definitely going to the upcoming LW too and always enjoy that convention.

Thanks, all. The PEL is very encouraging.
