FMGC 2012 - Gaming Convention - GTA CANADA

@FieldMarshalGames:

Very cool guys!  Thanks!  Just want to make sure there are games and space for all attending.

As a registered guest, I would like to reserve a table for both Saturday and Sunday. This table will be used to play Global between 6 Players, Thank you.

I have something special, for whoever gets the most dice raped over the weekend :).

I need help with a GRAPHIC Label/Sticker I’m making for the event.

Anyone got skills that can help me with this?  It’s going to be worth your time… :)  I’m not bad on my own, and I know what needs to be done, but I’m slow, and if you’re REALLY good, I could use the help.

In one week I’ll be rollin the dice with Young Grasshopper and Gargantua and enjoying the hell out of it.  The days are counting down and Im getting excited!!!
    For all of those who couldnt make it….thats too bad and I feel real sorry for ya’ll,  I think I’m gonna cry
    Hows that saying go  to bad so sad it sucks to be you.
    We’ll send ya a post card

So, decided to come at the last minute, is there a place near by I can crash? or atleast a safe parking lot where I can sleep in my car ? :-D

Well if you really do want to sleep in your car, the lot at the event is as safe as it gets.

Places to crash would be the hotels at Hwy 401 and Stevenson road (about a 10 minute drive south of the event) unless someone can offer you a place at their home.

Hotel info at http://iwillnevergrowup.com/forums in the events section (FMGC2012 FAQ’s)

YG, SA, + Crew, I think we should play 2 games on the saturday.  One like we planned. And an alternate - with mixed teams/nations :D

I don’t see why we shouldn’t? :P  Counting the minutes here guys…

Looking forward to meeting you Clyde!

This sounds like it’s going to be alot of fun! What time are you guys fixing to kick this thing off on Saturday? Im wondering if I should head up there Friday, or leave real early Saturday morning? to avoid the hassle I’ll probably just head up Friday afternoon but what’s the deal so I can figure what would work best?

Doors open at 9am both Saturday and Sunday.

Ok so it looks like i’ll be rolling into town sometime friday night/evening, fun fun  :-)

I think the icing on the cake would be some U.S.O. music from 41-45 by people like Bing Crosby, Andrew sisters, Glen Miller, and Tommy Dorsey, and etc. if you catch my drift
      Please please please and pretty please

yes the 1940s were a golden age for music

I have a Euchre banquet to attend Friday so will be driving up from Niagara Saturday morning.   I can bring a large Spring 42 Map 5’x3’ roughly, but probably won’t unless it rains and I have to take the truck rather than sports car.

Games I am bringing:
Box set 1942
Box set AA 2nd edition
Box set Samurai and Swords (Shogun?)  pretty cool game, 2-5 players.  Never managed to finish a game, takes 3-4 hours to play easy plus an hour to setup, cover rules.  I haven’t played in 5 years and only played it a few times.
Box set Civilization Avolon Hill circa mid 80s.  Used to play it in the mid 80s.  Best with 5-7 players, takes 3-5 hours from what I recall
Illuminiti original plus expansion 1+2.  2-8 players with 3-6 being best.  Games can be 20 mins to a few hours.

I have yet to sign up for any games.  I only play Spring 42 well, but could be a semi-competent floater/ 2nd/3rd in a team playing a different flavour of AA.  I’m always up for trying a new type of game as long as it is not rule heavy and I’m the only newbie!

You can almost definately count me in for a game of Samurai Swords!  I had that when I was a kid (the Shogun version) and it mysteriously disappeared one day.  Never saw it again until I played a few years ago with Jeremy and my brother.

Nobody has really signed up for any games tbh.  There is 1 full Global 1940 game set and possibly a 2nd one.  But beyond that it’s free for all.  lol.

There are a lot of great games available in the FMG Library as well that will be free for all to play.  We will have a shelving unit full of games for everyone to try out if they want.

I was thinking about bringing Battle Cry if anyone would be interested in playing that

Can you believe this shit?  I get on the plane in less than 48 hours.  So Stoked!
