I had no idea there was this kind of a group in the Puget Sound Region. This is an awesome find. Not sure I can attend that event but I would definitely be interested in other meetups
HI All
This is our third Battle of Long Island held in Whitestone Queens at Grace Episcopal Church. We hope to start around 10 and go until 10pm or later. You can come in earlier and start setting up. All are welcome and we have an undefeated team in Global 40 2nd edition rules bid for allies and WBC champions as well as beginners welcome. Its about a good time. If you play as a team and know the game you can play in 2 games at once. So far we have 17 definite and 7 more possible. In the past we have had between 16 and 26 players. Easy parking in church or directly across street in mall, light refreshments served including doughnuts, cheese, bread, drinks, and a refrigerator. We have a guy selling old games. We hope to get 10 per person for the Church.
So far we have:
-4 games of Global we want to set up could be more. (one blown up map)
-2 guys want to play 1914
-1 guy with a 4 by 6 map for the latest 1942 2nd edition
Let me know all welcome. I can send more information as needed

Hi All
We are putting together a 1 day Axis and Allies Day/convention in Whitestone NY. This is actually are 4th time and we plan on doing this 3 times a year so it can be a tournament format in that sense. It is all about playing and having fun. We have had between 14 and 26 people. While all versions of the game are great we have mostly been playing Global 40 with a bid for the allies. We have an undefeated team in Global 40 with players who have won and finished 2nd at the WBC but new players are very welcome. Its really about playing and having fun. Last time we had someone sell old games and raffle them off also. We have a church with plenty of parking, a fridge, and serve light snacks. We charge 10 dollars just so the Church gets something. We start at 10 am and end about 10pm but no one kicks us out. You can come a bit early to if you like.
Hope your interested

I am from IL but will be traveling to San Francisco for Kubla Con Memorial day weekend. I had trouble locating the A&A players last year until I found out too late the war gamers were given a space outside the hotel in a large banquet tent. I see there is a classic 2nd Ed tournament offered, but I’m more interested in a casual game of global. I’d also play anniversary or 1942 2nd ed. Any other player headed to Kubla?
If you follow the links, you will see the details for the rules. Kremlin gives you all kinds of options to start the game. Things like early landings in WAfrica, having Turkey, Switzerland or other neutrals starting the game as your ally, adding a battleship to the South Atlantic for Germany and many, many more. It can completely change the playout of the game and because the restricted Tech rules, Technology will likely not play as bid a role as it can in regular 2nd Edition games. Give it a try and you’ll see that it makes the game a very different one.
Bring your A&A set, all those who bring A&A game set are guaranteed a spot in the tourny! A&A tourny @ FlatCon this Sat 7-20 start 9am Bloomington IL. pmelnyk@hotmail.com
