Title: Recruits, Spring '10
Post by: Petru5 on January 28, 2010, 07:54:18 PM
Hey all,

With all the discussion of where the eastern cons have moved to and how they conflict with each other, I'll put the word out on my local con: Recruits.  It's March 26-28.  I'll call it "The Con nobody will attend from this forum" due to its location in eastern Kansas City.  The site's address is www.recruits-con.com (http://www.recruits-con.com).  It's a weekend of fun historical, sci-fi and fantasy gaming for a mere $5!  We pull about 400-500 people, depending on the weather. 

While I won't be running WZ, I've been able to find WZ and other mini gaming products for cheap, cheap, cheap prices.  This year I plan on running the naval Battle of Trafalgar from the Napoleonic era (73 ships!) and probably a game of Full Thrust.

I had hoped to attend this one actually but I have a different engagement that will be taking a higher priority occuring just a few weeks prior.

Do you have another engagement?  A military engagement perhaps your highness?

Okay, that is a poor bastardization of Star Wars.  Perhaps better to say a more personal engagement, or has the engagement part already past, hmm?

Tatooine, the base is on Tatooine.

Yeah, but beware the Ewoks; stand up to the little beggars, and they'll run off - all talk and posturing.
