Thread: Fall In 2020 has been cancelled

    Default Fall In 2020 has been cancelled

    Received today the message linked below cancelling the Fall In convention for September. This along with Historicon this past summer, marks the second consecutive convention run by the Historical Miniatures Gaming Society to be cancelled....here's hoping their other annual convention, Cold Wars, runs this winter.....

    Didn't see that Bill posted this here. I posted the HMGS email in the Report for Duty but here is another part of the email.

    The year 2020 has been very difficult on so many levels. The number of cancelled conventions is significant: Little Wars, GenCon, Historicon, Enfilade, NJCON, Drums at the Rapids, KublaCon, Huzzah!, and most recently Hurricon and NOVA Open, just to name a few. And across the pond, the cancellation of Bovington, Salute, Partizan, and Colours confirms that this situation is not limited to the United States.

    So many cons cancelled.

    I had high hopes but expected this to happen. Oh well. When we can travel freely maybe we can gather for a few days on our own somewhere and have our own private con?

    Yeah, but how many infected games will be crammed into that back room?

    Well there is a place in Nyack, NY called Toy Wiz where I meet a friend from NJ to play Bolt Action and Sharp Practice...during the day we are almost always the only ones gaming there...I'm not sure how far Nyack is for you though...

    Nyack is quite a bit longer haul for me. How to convince you or Hank to host?

    Awesome. When we finally get settled in I'll have to host a gathering here on Cape Cod a couple times a year.
