The multi-club participation game at Huzzah this year is going to be a recreation of the Siege of the Legations in Peking during the summer of 1900. Now is the time to get involved if you want to maneuver your forces through a beautiful recreation of the Chinese capital – either to destroy the "foreign devils" or defend the outposts of civilization.

Flea Market

Posted Tue, 05/10/2011 - 00:16 by mhwadmin

Last year we ran a small flea market at Huzzah! and this year there is more interest so we have expanded it to provide more space. How do you get to display your goods? All registered attendees of Huzzah! are welcome to bring their unwanted miniatures, books, rules, and games to the flea market Sunday, late in the morning. This is a great way to turn that old pile of wargaming stuff into real money, which you can then spend at the vendor's booths!

Dust gathering on the old board games? Turn them into cash, which you can then turn into some new project, or a new scale to collect.

AJ of Wright Brothers R/C and Wargaming Products notified me today that his company will be donating a hard cover copy of, "An Illustrated Encyclopedia of Uniforms from 1775-1783, The American Revolution." This is a terrific collection of uniform and equipment information, perfect for those looking for nice color illustrations to use as painting guide.

In addition, AJ will be on hand to run a game for the convention. Saturday morning he'll be running a 15mm ACW game, Cedar Mountain, using Volley and Bayonet.
