Games Plus Historical Miniatures Night 
(Next date :  Friday, May 11th )

A new monthly meeting forum for historical miniature gaming at the store.
Games will be run every second Friday on the month

Table 1:
Impetus - 4 players - 28mm
2 armies fight for control of a village in ancient Japan and its lowly peasants.

Backup Game:
Napoleonic Naval - The War of 1821 - Judge: Tim Deichel
A hypothetical scenario- The peace between Britain and the US, that followed the War of 1812 doesn't last and War breaks out in 1821. The US has dramatically expanded her navy and now includes several ships of the line (historically the US built a number of SOL's including the 120 gun USS Pennsylvania) as well as already having the worlds finest frigates. As Britain attempts to transport troops to North America, the US Navy intercepts the convoy.

The rules are modified from Avalon Hill's "Wooden Ships and Iron Men" with a greatly simplified combat procedure.


Other Happenings at Games Plus:
Fourth Saturday, noon until 8PM - WUMMS runs large Ancients (DBMM) or Napoleonics scenario battles, but other games are played. Stop by for more information. (see below)
