I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who I talked to and to those who purchased products at the Brigade Games booth at Historicon.

Lost World Explorers

We had a record-setting convention, and I just wanted to say that without your support, it would not be possible.

The response to Artizan's Kiss Kiss Bang Bang range, Bolt Action and Anglians's new items, Rattrap's Among the War Parties supplement, and our own Brigade Games products was tremendous.

I also wanted to publicly thank Jeff Nall of Battle Works Studios, who many of you know has been a big help assisting me in the booth the past year at conventions and designing some beautiful terrain pieces like the new Spanish/Caribbean Church. Also on the list is Dave Skelley, who ran demo Fantasy Hockey games, playtesting the hockey rules as well as assisting in the booth. Many also got to meet Bruce Meyer of Company B, who was on hand to talk to those interested in knowing more about the Armored Train, the Rolls Royce, and other products. Bruce also got to show off the WWII submarine that his Company B partner Brent designed for Brigade Games.

Armored Train

A very big 'thank you' to Jim Stanton for running a bunch of Gnome Wars and Trench Wars games that were a big success in helping to sell both Gnome War rules and Gnome and WWI miniatures.

And, of course, the unsung heroes are my family - Logan, Marissa, Brennan, Griffin "The Gnome Sales King" and my wife Gail - who help in packing/picking/sorting/loading/unloading stock before, during and after conventions, and helped even more than usual due to my recent surgery.

We are in the process of unloading the stock trailer, inventorying and sorting the stock.

We are starting to ship orders again tomorrow, but it will take us until the weekend to catch up with everything, so please bear with us.

For those of you who did not go to Historicon and ordered while we were away or continue to support Brigade Games, thank you as well.

We have a lot of new things planned and I will make those announcements shortly, including pre-orders for the Spanish/Caribbean Church and the WWII submarine.

Best regards!
