Recruits is in Eastern Kansas City, which is only about 4 hrs west on I-70 from St. Louis.
www.recruits-con.comYa know, some Chronopia and WarZone action would be great! My stuff isn't ready to go (unpainted, still on sprues, etc) and I doubt I can paint up enough stuff in time for a con as my OCD doesn't allow me to mass paint very quickly. If someone wanted to bring their goodies, I know I can provide terrain.
Also, if you play Flames of War, you'll want to attend. The regional qualifier for whatever tourney system FoW uses is held at Recruits. WarMachine is very popular, too.
One of my absolute favorite things about Recruits, aside the fact that it's practically in my back yard, is that it isn't locked into one genre. Fantasy, sci-fi, ancients, modern, horror...you name it, you can play it! Last Recruits I ran a Roman gladiator game in the morning (

This Recruits I'm thinking of running a Formula 1 racing game, perhaps some pulp GASLIGHT and something else...
Oh my, I just went tangential. Sorry, folks!
