Looks like we could be coming to Prague next year

Nice work, Barney
OK, we are waiting with voting about the date. Lada (store owner) is moving his shop right now, so we need to know some informations about new place (how big is it etc.). Week or two, not more, I promise.
Plans are afoot, as soon as dates and venue confirmed..........
See you on the Dark Side......

It sounds like a combination of WoG and SoG
Sounds like Summer Con 2013.

Voilŕ le soleil d'Austerlitz!
Happy days indeed
Seriously, Prague Summer Con is one of the very best event I ever took part.
My good intentions:
- be back in 2016 if nothing terrible gets in the way
- let more the family on their own and be more on the battlefield
- practicse WW2 before in case I am invited again to play it (I doubt after my poor performance last year )
- do not reserve a plane for Sunday, fly back on Monday instead.
Thanks again for all, last year it has been gorgeous.
Spčecial message to Honza: still looking if I find a few spare damage tokens from Dawn of War. No luck alas.
That's a very elegant machine indeed!
In this case it's been an US player from BGG. A battle report here:

It could allow Sails of Glory at the Con and spare a table at the same time...
Ok, just kidding.
Phillip I am seriously liking those photos of yours!
I actually think that a WW1 / WGF versus Sails situation would work better overall than trying WW2 v Sails like in that picture I posted. WW2 involves too much speed and too many game-kill potentials. Whereas without these adverse factors WW1 v Sails would be so much more game and more rewarding having begun as such a unique idea.
I always knew that Wings of War / Glory was a versatile wargame compared with others I have known but the Avro Vulcan business with WGS really did teach me never to say never about it. So I reckon this could actually be done: It does IMHO need an expert in both games (I have not played Sails yet but believe that where there is a will there is a way) to look at this situation and think creatively about it ...
I can not speak for a Summer Con, but I can say that the Prague pilots feel more than welcome on my visit there last year. For me it was a mini Con of one afternoon of gaming! And communicating was not so difficult at all thanks to them all speaking better English than I spoke of any of their languages!!
Anyone who can attend a Summer Con should do so, you will be hard pressed to find a better group to play the game with.
We have a gaming session on 6th October in Lada's new place (we had two last Cons in his shop - he is an important supporter of WoG in Prague). I will report about new LGS and gaming hall.
Thanks Daniel, we are waiting for your report.

Ok, sounds good.
What's the adress/position of the new shop/location in Prague, Daniel?
Voilŕ le soleil d'Austerlitz!
Kubánské nám. 1268/9
101 00 Praha 10
Check Street view
Ok, that's 2 more tram stations with line 22.
Voilŕ le soleil d'Austerlitz!
Lada wanted some place close to the original area. But someone said the new place is a little smaller then Zitomirska.
Any confirmation on dates yet please?
See you on the Dark Side......
It's closer to Slavia hotel, which Jelena and I had often stay in (being close to Lada's old place), than before.
Knowing Lada, I'm sure new place must be good choice.
ATTENTION: I can see from above there is Hotel Mars right near the venue. Why do not we book some rooms there? Maybe a kinda group booking would be even more beneficial . I can book a room right thru booking.com, but comrades from Prague could talk to the hotel manager....
"We do not stop playing when we get old, but we get old when we stop playing."
If there's a parking place for your car...
Why not stay all together in hotel near the Con location. Shure I'll miss the Vlatava river a little bit, but this shortens the distances.
(...and our way back home at friday night isn't that long if we get lost with Sascha in the sport's bar. )
Voilŕ le soleil d'Austerlitz!
Do you think something like: "I have an offer that..." and something about horsehead?
Sven is right - I will start doodle pol immediately when I will take some photos of new LGS.
"Slowly, slowly, catch you monkey..."
Any news what kind of repaint contest Michal would propose for the Summer Con 2016?
Voilŕ le soleil d'Austerlitz!
Today I am going to Lada's new place and I will try to make some photos.
In that case they will need numbers of participants who wants to stay there. I will check possibility of some discount later when we will know how big this party will be
In spite of the dates, do we have a general idea of the event?
WGF and WGS campaigns? [My vote!]
