Here at Sergeants 3, we have made a very difficult decision.

We are not going to have BromCon this year. My recovery from the fractured pelvis is slower than anticipated and even though I'm doing very well, this needs to be my priority as well as dealing with all the unforeseen medical costs.

Also my job situation is once again very fluid as the firm may be sold/transitioned to one of my colleagues while the owner decides when to retire. Getting time off to work on BromCon is extremely rare as our office schedules can change immediately.

But the biggest thing is that we want to concentrate all of our efforts on the release of TSATF/40 at the end of this year. This is quite an accomplishment in our hobby and it deserves our best. We have been working on it since last year before I fell off the ladder, and we expect to go into full-time mode next week.

So it came down to what takes priority; BromCon or TSATF? We feel that the 40th anniversary of The Sword and The Flame is due nothing less from us than being at the top of our To-Do List.

We'll keep everyone posted as we move forward and as always, many thanks for your support and understanding.

TSATF 40.

As much as I miss BromCon (aka Colonial Barracks), TSATF/40th should take precedence.

Although I'll miss the gaming and compatriots at "BromCon" I completely understand your reasoning. Just let me know if you need any help with TSATF/40th.

I cannot get to Bromcon, But look forward to getting TSATF/40. I am very sorry however that you need to make a choice.

coolyork04 Mar 2019 2:28 p.m. PST

Maybe then we should all push the 40th Ann. thing and run at least one TSATF game at one of the Conventions we go to this year . I'll be running one of six or so at the upcoming RECON in Orlando . After all life is fleeting and there is no guarantee we will all see the 50th !

Col Durnford04 Mar 2019 3:56 p.m. PST

Work on your recovery. That said, I'm really looking forward to TSATF 40.

Finally, there are enough of us around eager to buy it that you could send out the final draft for proof reading. I, for one, would be happy to buy a copy in advance to be part of that group.

Thanks,

Vince

You should focus on achieving a full recovery…and getting out TSATF40. I hope you heal soon.

SylvainIndiana04 Mar 2019 9:44 p.m. PST

Cannot wait to see TSATF 40. I will definitively buy it.

Has it really been that long?

Ed Mohrmann Supporting Member of TMP05 Mar 2019 7:00 a.m. PST

Heal and be well. Then let us know when we can
order TSATF 40 ! Priorities in THAT order…

Also Ditto what Ed and Bismark said

Ditto what Ed said. I'm seeing a pattern here…

bandrsntch06 Mar 2019 9:24 a.m. PST

Let me know if I can help. Never got to a BromCon, but always wanted to. Getting old is tough. Take care of yourself first.

coolyork06 Mar 2019 4:01 p.m. PST

Yes get better first and then work on the TSATF 40 !

Mad Guru06 Mar 2019 9:40 p.m. PST

Just echoing what all above have already said so well: please focus on your recovery above all else -- and then TSATF 40 -- and please save a copy for me. And when the time comes, I hope to be there for BromCon as well!

SgtGuinness11 Mar 2019 9:19 a.m. PST

Ditto Mad Guru, Ed, Coolyork, and others. Be well and concentrate on your recovery. When and if able soldier in with TSATF 40, your health is of utmost priority. Your faithful followers are patient and loyal! I will be running one of the 7 TSATF games at HMGS-South's Recon in Florida next month that Coolyork had mentioned.

I look forward to seeing you at the next BromCon!!!

Cheers,
JB
