I just wanted to find out a quick view of what people think about this combined magazine. Please let us know, and also check out the sister poll for Gothic. Thanks.

I sent G/W US a copy of Jervis's letter about Fanatic Mag, and asked what about my Epic sub ?  Well good news - I can put the $ towards and Fanatic Mag sub or get a refund.  A Fanatic Mag sub is $60.00 a year ... oh well ...  :L, it should be worth it !  :;):

As of last night I officially secured a venue.  I know this isa widely geographically diverse group, but I thought I'd post it here just in case.  This is a copy of the post I put in the Event Announcements thread on the SG board.
==============

For those of you in commuting distance of Nashville, Tennessee Nashcon '05 will be held Memorial Day weekend, May 27-29.

Nashcon is sponsored by HMGS (Historical Miniature Game Society), a national gaming organization here in the US. Traditionally, Nashcon has been almost entirely historical games. While it will still be dominated by historicals, they are branching out into fantasy and scifi.

They have agreed to allow us to run an Epic Tournament on that Saturday. It will be RTT structure, with a minimum of 3 rounds. I will post more details as we get them hashed out.

The event is $18 for HMGS members, $23 for non-members through pre-registration, $20/$25 at the door. Convention Info, Registration Form, and a preliminary game schedule are available at:

http://www.hmgs-midsouth.org/convention ... ashcon2004

Also, GJLane and some of the crew from Memphis will be putting on an Epic Demo at some point during the weekend.


There is a small chance that we may pull off an official RTT event and gain the official GW support therby (trophies, prizes, advertisement in White Dwarf, etc.), but we will need 12 solid commitments and a few more for extras before we can qualify. Mostly, I'd really like to have the free ad in WD but that takes a 2 month advance notice. Anyone who can commit at this point will be much appreciated.

Those of you who are interested, please email me at neal.e.hunt@vanderbilt.edu and I will put you on the email list. If you can confirm at this point, so much the better.

Ahh... don't be such a sissy.  At 6 hours, you ought to be able to day trip it.

Seriously, where are you?  And if you are west of here, did you know about the Memphis tourney March 19 (this Saturday)?
