Code of Conduct
The Historical Miniatures Gaming Society, Inc. (HMGS) is in the business of educating through gaming, which is – ultimately – having fun while learning about history. After all, we wouldn’t be holding three conventions and promoting many outreach events if we didn’t all have a great time together! And as every gamer knows, a thorough rulebook is the key to everyone having a good time, so here are our rules for a safe and fun HMGS. If you have a question about a certain policy or guideline, be sure to read through all of our policies, but if that still doesn’t answer your question, email policy@hmgs.org.
