    Default Any Wings of War at Historicon, July 12-15, 2018 in Lancaster, PA ?

    Is anyone running Wings games at Historicon ? I know a number of people are running Check Your Six games, but haven't heard of any Wings...

    I saw that Peter (Teaticket) is running his "Above Guadalcanal" game on Saturday night at Historicon -- are there any other Wings games ??? I've tried to wade through the PEL listing -- but it is hundreds of games (the reason it is called the Mother of all wargame conventions)...so any help anyone can give directing me to either Wings or Sails of Glory games would be appreciated !!!

    I submitted 4 games but somehow the gremlins derailed 3 of them. If I can get a table (I'm sure I can) I'll run the other three. When and where who knows? I had planned on 'Tigers Over Burma', 'Across the Adriatic' and 'Aerodrome Raid'. Hopefully they will find a table.

    I had hoped to run this Thursday evening. If it isn't in the convention book, look at the events table for newly added Thursday games.

    I see what may have happened to your Flying Tiger game-- on Thursday at 4 PM there is a Flying Tigers game using Fire in the Sky rules and at 7PM on Thursday there is a "Burma Road" Flying Tigers game using Aerodrome 2.0 rules. I guess you got bumped because of them....

    Sorry to report that I will not be going to Historicon this year. I have notified them to cancell my games. I will still be going to Origins.
