Cold Wars coming - March 12-15 in Lancaster Pennsylvania

ODMS will be at Cold Wars. The theme this year is "Long Live the Revolution" - wars of Revolution. The only official ODMS event is "Last Charge of Colonel Bulgarov" - an RCW game being hosted Friday at Noon. Here is the excerpt from the online PEL -

F-106 - Last Charge of Colonel Bulgarov - Theme Game
Fri. 12:00 PM, 3 hrs, 6 players
GM: Charles Turnitsa
Sponsor: Old Dominion Military Society
Inter-War 15mm, Rules: Forward Comrades!
The old man and his beloved Cossacks have come to join the White's cause and are seeking to throw the Reds out of the railroad village of Ritvosk. The freshly appointed Cheka director in the Ritvosk Administrative Sector is looking to make a name for himself in the new Government, so he has decided to rouse the Red Guard in defense of the People's Railroad Station, and to destroy that old regime drunkard, Colonel Bulgarov. A fun RCW game, featuring armored cars, tanks, cossacks, and lots of Reds eager to die for the cause.
Beginner Friendly, Rules Taught.

In addition, there will be a number of ODMS gamers taking part in several of the tournaments and other events.

There are at least two ODMS related Dealers that will be at the show - Miniatures of Chesapeake and Cotton Jim Flags.

Of other related local gaming clubs (especially our Sister organization in Williamsburg - the Battle Barn Gamers) we hope to see some attendees as well. Hopefully the weather will be great!

Upcoming Games - February 26

Byron -
WWII Miniatures Skirmish using Collins Epic Wargame rules (from Frontline General)

Charles Cabell - a good friend of Kai's from Fort Mill (one town over from where I lived in South Carolina) got some great photos of the show. Wow.

Great comments from the guys in TSS on their mailing list, and also from the SMP guys.

I think we had a winner - and there is already anticipation for next year!

Early Morning Vittoria Battle at the Muster

Patrick Berkebile - with the Southern Maryland Partizans wargaming club - hosted the battle of Vittoria early on Saturday morning. It was a very well attended, attractive game. One of many at the Muster in 09.

Williamsburg Muster - a Great Success!

The convention, now over, was a great success for its first year.

There were, in attendance, over 210 at the Muster. This includes 29 vendors, 44 game masters, and the rest gamers!

Reports of games, tournaments, prizes, the raffle, and stories of horror and delight are surely to follow.

The follow on event - Williamsburg Muster 2010 is already being planned for February 5,6,7 of 2010! Make sure to clear your calendar!
