Re: 2016: Upcoming Events/Demo/Tournaments for Flames of War
I had the same experience with Fragcon and Wahammer. They seem to only like 6-8 players around a board game.

Same thing happened with Tooncon here in Saskatoon. Oh well, it means at least one weekend where there are less board game players in the back at the Den.

Might have something to do with a board game person running and the entire committeesqualie wrote:I had the same experience with Fragcon and Wahammer. They seem to only like 6-8 players around a board game.
Might also explain why the numbers keep falling every year
Still - it blew my mind that they would prefer to ostracize games & players - what can you do?

- I have even run the FoW ToonCon event one year because the Host backed out at the last minute
Think ToonCon was upset with me as we were interviewed and featured in the Verb instead of the rest of the event

RULES AND REGULATIONS
All armies must be fully base coated. Any miniatures not base coated painted will be pulled from the table prior to starting the tournament.
Rounds will be determined by Swiss system come ready to play all armies
Missions will be selected randomly immediately before each round, any mission will only be played once in the tournament. Exception to this is Seize and Hold (Found in the Normandy Battles Book). Air Landing lists may Seize and Hold for all 5 missions if they pay for Gliders and Paratrooper and other Glider lists may announce the night before or at Registration that each morning mission they will do a Seize and Hold Mission.
Players are responsible for monitoring the time and the judges will announce time intervals throughout the tournament. A true act of sportsmanship is not starting a new turn if both players will not be able to finish that turn. The game should be called if both players cannot finish their turn and the results should be calculated.
Slow play is to be actively discouraged, repeated offenses may result in loss of points or forfeited matches. This is a Regionals competition, if you cannot play a game to completion due to size/compliment or familiarity with your army, you might want to revisit your choice. Most players should be able to complete their turns within 10-15 minutes.
When time is called the game must immediately end regardless of the action taking place in the game. New turns cannot be started even if starting a new turn would award an immediate victory or cause a player to make a company morale check.
If two fortified companies face each other then they will play the No Man's Land Mission.
Unit histories are not necessary.
Army lists must be submitted to cigamnogard@sasktel.net (Third Party army list creation sites (i.e., Easy Army, Army Builder) may be used as well as the generic army list excel spreadsheet located on the Flames of War website. All lists must include the following information:

FoW Demo: First Wednesday of Every Month & that Saturday!
By Lance Mathew
I arrived early and alone. However, Stephen was supposed to meet with me at around 1900 so I had quite a bit of time to admire the work the Tramps staff was doing to tidy up and organize the Flames of War section. Looks awesome just in time for the FoW Regina Rifles Regionals!
Speaking of Regionals Chris came by and paid his fee. And, then he let me know that he had arranged to take the day off and assist with setting up for the big event. Now there would be four of us Brody, Michael, Chris, and myself!
Meanwhile, Chris eyed up the crazy demo I had brought: Late War Recce forces! Luchs, 8-Rads, and SdKfz221,222,&223s opposed the Staghounds, Daimlers, and Dingos kind of a cat versus dog match up I guess. With the 1420 points this year I expect to see more lists like them.
Finally, Stephen arrived and looked at the forces. I could tell he was keen to play but something was on his mind. He asked if I could give him a hand with list of troops he would bring to Regionals. And, if we could play that list this Saturday? How could I say no? Especially since the list deadline was the 31st of the previous month!
We built a combined American and British list and gave it a try on the Saturday. I brought a list I had suggested to Stephen Royal Airborne Engineers with no tank support probably did not seem that interesting.
Attacking at night the Royal Airborne Engineers dealt with two time on target artillery strikes which was nasty but not enough to stop them from capturing their objective. Especially, with two large platoons of Royal Engineers each with their own flamethrowers lighting the night up.
I gave Stephen both lists and I think sent him back to the drawing board.
Meanwhile, another new player named Tristan, an RCMP cadet, contacted me to set up another demo game other than my normally scheduled first Wednesday night of the month. Of course I said - YES!
To set up your own personal demo please e-mail me at cigamnogard@sasktel.net or contact me through Facebook!

First Wednesday of Every Month
July 6th, 2016
By Lance Mathew
I arrived early, really early, for the Great War Demo. Mini-me was out of town with his mother and Cupcake was hard at work; all on a 29 degree day that was threatening to rain. Not a good sign for foot traffic. Needless to say no one showed up for a demo. However, I was able to preview the new Team Yankee (WWIII) book which has the sexy Leopard tank on the cover. Moreover, I was able to reflect on WWI and the lack of Canadians in the Battlefront range for the Great War (and even Team Yankee for that matter).
Now, being a Canuck I started to think of the special rules that the Canadian Forces should have to reflect their status/abilities of the Great War:
Piss & Vinegar (aka Enjoy the War):
April 1915, the Canadians, were introduced to chlorine gas by the Germans; employed to create a hole in the French (Algerians) lines near the Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF). The Canadians stood their ground by wearing urine soaked rags on their faces (note gas masks had not yet been issued to the Allied soldiers in WWI) and repulsed the Germans attack! One out of every fourth CEF was a casualty.
http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/battle-of-ypres/
Birth of a Nation (aka Mission Tactics):
April 1917, the Canadians, commanded by British Lieutenant-General Byng. The troops were shown replicas and aerial maps, providing precise information on the enemy - their orders: Follow your commanding officer and if he goes down, follow the next in rank in descending order.
http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/vimy-ridge-and-the-birth-of-a-nation/
Creeping Barrage (aka Spearhead):
April 1917 the Canadian Corps in the midst of sleet, wind, & snow the CEF advanced behind a rolling artillery barrage intended to keep the Germans cowed in their bunkers and away from their lethal machine guns for as long as possible.
http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/vimy-ridge/
Well, those were my first thoughts at least. Thinking I should submit my ideas and lists to Battlefront and see what happens from there. Meanwhile here is another site that might interest followers of Canadian history:
http://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/military-heritage/first-world-war/first-world-war-1914-1918-cef/Pages/canadian-expeditionary-force.aspx
Note the next Tournament is July 23rd come check out the action at Tramps!
