THANKS FOR COMING TO

BORDERWARS XX
October 3-5, 2008

and if you didn't make it, you missed your last chance. From now on HAHMGS's fall activity will be supporting the KANSAS CITY GAME FAIR (see above).


HAHMGS Celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2008!

...it was twenty years ago today...
that the Heart of America Historical Miniature Gaming Society held our first convention in 1987. It's been 20 years and 4 (or is it 5?) versions of Command Decision since then, and we're still going strong.

 

HEY! HAHMGS MEMBERS IN MANHATTAN!

Did you know there's a game store in Manhattan? Well, we didn't either, cuz it's kinda hard to find.

It's the Patch & Crow's Nest, 1800 Claflin Rd., Ste. 1 (lower level). In the little mini-mall next to the campus, on the way to Jardine. Just keep opening doors until you find the stairs going down.

They've got comics, RPG stuff, board games and historical miniatures.

Check 'em out if you're in the Manhattan area.

And tell em HAHMGS set you!



HEY! HAHMGS MEMBERS IN LAWRENCE!

Did you know there's a game store in Lawrence? Well, we didn't either, cuz it's kinda hard to find.

It's Hometown Games, www.htgames.com at 23rd and Penn, behind the Dunkin Donuts.

There's a gaming area in the back, and  semi-regular Sunday Historical Miniatures gaming.

It's even made the paper! Here, Here, Here & Here

Tell em HAHMGS sent you!


THANKS FOR COMING TO BORDERWARS '07!

HAHMGS wishes to thank FRANK CHADWICK for putting on the first ever Command Decision tournament right here in Kansas City.

.

Frank wants to thank everyone who attended for giving him such a warm welcome. This was his first time coming to Kansas City. Frank says the convention and the people were both 'just great', and he can't wait to come back to the Heart of America.
