Fellow gamers,

I’ve recently been put in charge of organizing Historical Wargaming at
Double Exposure conventions, and am looking to recruit game-masters
interested in running historical wargames for the convention in July.

The organizers at Dreamation (the parent organization that runs the con)
very much want to get more historical wargaming at this convention.They
would be willing to do what they can to make this an interesting,
convenient, and worthwhile con for us, but they need more participation.

If you run an event, you get in free.If you need someone to help you set
up and run the game with you, we can see about getting them in for free
too, or possibly at a reduced fee.They usually ask you to run your game
twice, or two different games once.You can run more than that if you
want.They have been very accommodating to me, and if I ask for a
specific time or day, the result is usually close to what I asked.

They’re also looking for vendors, so if you are a seller of wargame
games and supplies, please contact me too.


If you’re in the Morristown area this con is very convenient, its
5 minutes from I-287.Parking is in a covered garage and free.There
is a great deal of room at the Hotel (the Morristown Hyatt &
Conference Center [morristown.hyatt.com]). If you need to
overnight, there are 256 rooms in this hotel, and you’d be in the
same building as the games, you’d just have to go downstairs.There
is a restaurant in the hotel, and many more within easy walking
distance.

If it sounds like I have a personal interest in this, I do.I have always
wanted to be able to go to a wargame con without having to drive 2-3
hours or stay over.As historical wargammers, we could grow this con into
something interesting and worth going to.We just need you!

Respond back to me, even if you’re unsure about running a game.

P.S. This con is two weeks before Historicon, so you could try out any
new ideas at Dexcon before that.

My background: I’m a historical wargammer for miniatures and boardgaming
with over 40 years of experience.I’ve gamed every period from ancients
to sci-fi.Currently I’m building a War of the Roses army in 28mm to use
with the ruleset “Poleaxed2”, and plan to bring it to the con. I have
about 15 miniature armies and once owned over 360 boardgames before I
stopped counting.
