EAST CONVENTIONS
HMGS
East sponsors the finest historical miniatures wargaming
conventions anywhere, some drawing in excess of
3700 attendees. East kicks in with Fall In! each
November down in historic Gettysburg, PA, followed by Cold Wars at Lancaster, PA
each March and ending with the Grandaddy of them
all, Historicon each July, also held in Lancaster,
PA. Its historical miniature wargaming at its finest and then some.
How good are our conventions?
Well, let's just say that the Wall
Street Journal didn't
call Historicon the "Mother of all Wargaming
Conventions" for nothing. Check out the hyperlinks
below for all the latest info on our conventions,
or to simply see what you missed if you couldn't
attend. You will also find the latest weather at both Gettysburg and Lancaster as well as convenient driving directions courtesy of Yahoo Maps. Its sort of our way of making attendance at an HMGS East con as familiar and comfortable as slipping into a old pair of slipers at the end of a particularly hard day. Enjoy, and we will see you at the next East
Con! |
