On Saturday at Cold Wars, from 5-8 PM, we’ll be running a one-round “walk-up” tournament for Lasalle. Four GMs will have tables already set up with terrain and armies. All you have to do is show up and play. Minimum Experience Required: you must have at least read the rulebook. [...]

Coming next – around Christmastime – the Bavarians!
