I have just finished uploading the photos from the game that we played at this year’s Secrete Santa Sale at Walt’s hobbies. This game was bases on the legendary action that occurred at the Hornet’s Nest during the battle of Shiloh. The gallery can be seen here: The Hornet’s Nest

On Sunday, January 22nd, 2012, the Salt City Wargamers will host another miniature war game day at Walt’s Hobby shop. This event will start at 11:00am and will conclude at 5:00pm. I will continue my 150th commemoration of the American Civil War by running a game based on the 1862 Battle of Pea Ridge. The local Flames of War gamers will also be running some games. So if you’re in the area please feel free to join us. Walt’s Hobby shop has plenty of room so additional games are very welcome.

Spectators are also welcome, so feel free to come down and check the game out (the best time for viewing the game will be after 1:00pm). More details will be posted here as needed.
