I play BBR and Kings & Kaisers. Situated on the Northwest side.

We are officially announcing the first Chicago BBR tournament, taking place June 23rd - 25th at a hotel in Addison, IL which is 15-20 minutes from O’hare Airport.

Registration for the tournament opens up January 20th. There will be up to 8 tables and is a 3-day event. We will be playing whatever the latest version of BBR is at that time.

For those of you looking for some 1914 or WW1 action come this winter, we’re hosting our 2nd Kings & Kaisers tournament January 16, 17 and 18th. Hoffman Estates, Illinois at the Holiday Inn Express.

Kings & Kaisers does what BBR did for G40 but for the original A&A 1914 game. It has a round limit, is driven by victory points, and has a competitive community. K&K is featured on Combat Miniatures and its a great game!

If you’re interested in attending reach out to me directly on FB or at the email in the promo image.

There’s also a promo video from last year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmXqvnr5dyk&feature=youtu.be

This would be for teams, with the fee being applicable to each person on that team. You may still register as an individual, but you would be assigned to a team.

To register, we accept Paypal or Zelle. If you are interested in attending, let me know and I will privately message you that information.

Thanks for the question
