Hi All
This is our 3rd battle of Long Island and 4th event at the church. We have had between 15 and 26 people. It is in Whitestone Queens NY from 10am till 10pm or so. Lately most are playing Global 40 2nd edition with bid for allies. We have an undefeated team that also has the 1st, 2nd 3rd place finishers from the WBC. We welcome less experienced players. We are starting to do match ups and records if you like. Mostly have Fun and Play hard with other great Axis and Allies People. In the past we played the Anniversary Game, 1914, Spring 42 and the Revised edition lately mostly global 40. Bring a team, join a Team or if your a veteran and play fast you can run an entire board. We have a Fridge, light snacks served, plenty of parking, we ask for 10.00 for the church. Last time we had a guy sell old games, flea market is welcome but it is about playing. If you are on a team you can play in 2 games at once. Save Sat. 23rd for this…!!!
Any questions

Perhaps he’s the peacetime equivalent of a Combat Cameraman lining up to get a good low-angle tank photo.

I thought he was hard of hearing, lost and had inopportunely dropped a contact.

Here is another great one of me commanding…. This is an M60 Patton. This was not running but was there last year.

I can’t believe where the summer went!
Most Holy, what’s your weekend shaping up like? I have not committed to a room or just driving up each day. If the weather is good I’d love to drive the Z28 but it’s a 4 seater in name only. I’d hate to be in the back seat for two hours with me driving!
Garg, was looking forward to seeing you again, pity you can’t make it……

Rolling in Friday afternoon/early evening! :-D
What bar is the gathering spot for the pre-party? :wink: :mrgreen:

Time to clean out the van and start loading up … oh my, so much stuff.

Weather this weekend looks great! I’ll be roaring in sometime early Saturday afternoon me thinks!

After the heat during the week that we’ll have, you are right it looks fantastic!
And, the earlier the better! Doors open at 9am both days! (We’re hoping to get in Friday night to set up so there won’t be any last minute rushing around the morning of game day 1)

If someone can hooks me up via the big-screen, I will Skype in for a speech!
Or to draw prizes or something… LOL…

Pretty excited. Meeting with two Toronto buds at the Travelodge Ottawa Whitby tomorrow afternoon, playing some A&A Europe 1940 Friday night there. Then I can’t wait to scope out a game on Saturday morning.
Also checking out Star Records (http://www.recordstoreday.com/Venue/5311) at some point. If you’re in to music, I’ve heard it’s the place.

R.Star Records - the place looks like a dump but its’ a GREAT place for music for sure! Not your average sterile HMV type of store. lol.
Good choice on the Travelodge too. Much nicer hotel than the Best Western!
So close to the weekend we can taste it! Last minute pre-prep going on right now, setup tomorrow night and then 2 loooooong days of FUN FUN FUN!

Whats wrong with the Sketch Western?
They are supposed to be a big brand name!

They are … but we didn’t hear a lot of good about them last year. Though they are easy to get to (being right at Stevenson and the 401) and fairly priced.

Leaving Montreal in 10 minutes. Excited.

Saturday and Sunday are looking to be great weather days. Friday has turned out to be a chilly day for the bikers headed to Port Dover. I was going to go in the street rod but parking it in a wet farmers field to shuttle in……maybe next time! So no Friday the 13th at Port Dover, so glad I can look forward to this event and great weather Saturday and Sunday!

In Oshawa at the Travelodge waiting for friends. Having a warmup game with Toronto pals tonight, debating between A&A Europe 1940 and Anniversary Edition. Also: which beer to start with?

…and that was a great weekend unlike any I’ve had before. Nice to meet you, too, Randy–you’re a good dude.
OK. Time for real life for a while. Laters.

We just closed the doors on the event about 30 minutes ago!
What a weekend … so exhausted, but so many great games.
Thanks to everyone who made this event special and to those who spent time and energy to make it happen!
Even with the hiccups involved, this was a good year. -
What a great event this year.
Two fun filled days of Global 1940. Great people both running and playing. Can’t wait for next years event.
Keep up the good work on this event FMG and I will never grow up.
