Greetings Fellow Gamers,

Well, I am excited, albeit, already a little tired. We have a very busy couple of months ahead of us. HMGS-Midwest GMs will be running games at both Garycon and Adepticon. If you have not been to these epics cons as of yet, you should go. Join us at the table if you can play, or just stop by to say hello. Also on the horizon is the fabled Seven Years War Convention, do not miss it.

We are proud to announce another event arrangement with a brick and mortar game store. Old Guard Games, in Milwaukee. This is run by our long time supporter Badger Games. We are looking forward to starting to run the gaming night. Every 2nd Thursday of the month will be Historical Night. Be sure to stop by and roll some dice, and see their awesome new store.

The Little Wars teaser announcements proceed as before. Including some great sneak peeks, of upcoming games. You do not want to miss the two videos promoting the Hannibal game and 55 Days at Peking. The PEL, will open as of April 1st. The room block is also open, but rooms are going fast. Information is included about the Memoir 44 Conference, Flea Market, and Painting Contest. Army info is posted for our Flames of War and Team Yankee Tournaments.

In a separate email you received info about Little Wars merch. Collectable items have been received which includes the convention T-Shirt, Dice, Dice bags, Pins, Tape measures and a new style cap. Some promotional events are also in, such as the new badge holders. In conjunction with our sponsor Noble Knight, each badge purchaser will receive one of these collectible items.

Towards the end of the email we have published our new event calendar for 2025. This includes all planned HMGS-Midwest events. These have been created for you, be sure to be a part of them.

That is all for now, see you around the gaming table.

After getting feedback, it seems that some phone apps cut off the newsletter halfway, depriving you of our exhilarating content. While we could cut down the size, there is a large amount of information to put out. A remedy would be to provide a link to the current and all previous newsletter. This way you can be sure of being up to date on all the current gaming events. It will also let you have a quick reference to past issues. (see below for the link)
