Thread: Prague Summer Con 2015

    1) Voting ended, timetable in progress.

    2) We suggest a pub "Zlý časy" - a special beer pub (usually about 20 types of beer).

    3) All official mats available.

    4) Probably not (90 %).

    5) Please, contact Kubajs with it.

    6) Yes, you are rigth

    And that pub, as I recall, serves pretty good food as well. I remember very tasty beer cheese and pickled Hermelin cheese, which are great side dish with beer.

    Good. Do they allow people to sing? . I suggest we try to arrange a special singing competition of wartime songs - together by the bar.
    Here what comes to mind:
    - Lili Marlene - deutsch/english,
    - White Cliffs of Dover,
    - The Czech theme song from "Tmavomodry Svet", the movie.

    The more beer the better .

    P.S. I remember a fantastic German-Polish jurists' singing competition in the castle of Meissen we held some 15 years ago. It occured we have several war songs of the same melody but with different lyrics. That was fun!

    Sounds good, for now! We'll see does how it really sounds after some beer

    Is Katyusha considered? Or Bella ciao?

  6. #356

    Svita is slow melancholic song, and I really like it (I wish it would be my funeral song - it is full of hope), but the most famous is probably Škoda lásky (Roll put the Barrels)

    If we operate with a Katjuscha system in Central Prague, singing Italian Partisan songs they will definitely arrest us.

    (I like the melody of both songs)

    However, the Organisers, to which I obviously do not belong, have the casting "votes".

    There is no claim of mine of course and I knew it must have been tough job to choose from the participants' offers (and sixies), although some part of the fun and a lot of preparation time has gone fruitless.

    Should be possible to replace Battle of Rethymno, Crete with one of your own, non elected missions my friend.

    I know you put a lot of work in the stuff for the missions.

    Thunderbolt can host his mission next year.

    I hope that the last word isn't spoken.

    I can't imagine a SummerCon without Nightbomber and Polish pilots.

    This can't be true, Andy!
    Really sorry to hear that.
    The Bloody Eastern Front mission will not be so epic without you and your airplanes.
    I hope that's really serious problem, that you cannot come to Prague. Not only the disappointment of the first version of timetable.
    It can be easily modified, how Sven wrote.

    Hello my friends, I'm back to the forum after my (quite long) absence. That was due to some tough project I was doing in my job, which limited my leasure time significantly. Now it's done, so I hope I will be joining you more frequently.

    As you probably know I will not be able to join Prague Con this year. I passed the host of my scenario to Nightbomber, but now I see that Andy is unfortunately quitting as well. That's pity, 'cause it seems that Polish wing will not be represented at all

    Ok...

    For my Ausgburg Raid mission I have 4 Lancasters. "Grogs", "Dam" & two light modified Lancaster.

    My question is if anyone of the the Prague comrades has a Lancaster model too, so I need only to bring 3 ones to Prague.

    On my Summer Con list are:

    5 A-H WGF planes
    3 Italian WGF planes
    1 WGF Caproni Ca.4
    4 WGS Lancasters
    2 WGS FW 190
    3 WGS Bf.110
    1 WGS Ju88
    1 WGS Mosquito
    1 WGF painting contest plane
    1 WGF Fokker Eindecker
    1 WGF Damage Deck Caddy


    If now needed I can bring two Yaks and one Soviet Hurricane to Prague. Just tell me.

    I didn't plan to bring any Rule & Accessoire Packs to Prague, I hope that's ok.

    Yes, from China to USA, then from USA to Germany, then to Czech. We are far behind and we get it with two extra shipping charges. Considering Euro has gone up a lot, Lada is not even that eager to get some. At the time being, i buy a doubleseater for twice as much as two years ago.
    That needs a serious devotion to the game .

    Runaway is clear. The things are not messy anymore and I'll be flying in Prague again.

    Dear game masters,

    I wasn't planing to bring planes with me, unless some of them are needed for scenarios you'll be running.

    I have some 40+ various planes (Nexus/Ares/Shapeways), WW1 and WW2, various theatres, plus some for Soviet - Polish War and SCW.

    So, if you need re-enforcements (planes, maneuver decks, damage decks), just let me know, and I'll gladly bring planes etc. if I have what you need.

    This time I am going to bring a big suitcase packed with my stuff (planes, maneuver cards, mounts) plus some mats and... plus some bonus mats as gifts . Hope Ladinek will be so kind to keep the luggage in his store from Friday till Sunday.

    I must my who has strongly supported my mission and has been pressing me to go against all odds. She knows how important to me the Con idea is and how I cherish the memoirs on every year's return.
    As far as EF is concerned, I'll have all my I-16s (6), LL Airacobras (3), La-7s(4) , Yak 1s, Bf-109F/G (6), Fw-190As (4), not to mention the Hs-129s (4), but that is another story.
    More: Fiat Br-20s (2), Mc-200s (4), Spit V trops (4), Hurries desert (3).
