Little Wars is a little under 8 weeks away!
Holy Heck Batman!
Okay, so deep breath.
I finally got off my butt and as an HMGS Midwest Member decided to support my favorite miniatures gaming convention.
I'm running two games on Saturday.
Here's the flyer and the description!

Pirate Raid!
It's the early 18th Century and dastardly pirates have landed at Port Dominion! With a taste for treasure, loot, and plunder, they are attacking the port town!
Perhaps to loot the gold and riches from the treasury?! Perhaps to kidnap the governor and/or his beautiful daughter and hold her for ransom onboard their ships laying offshore?! Perhaps to apprehend the mysterious Spanish Contessa and hold her for ransom also?! Or perhaps to take the island; hoist the Jolly Roger over the Governor's mansion and the fort and claim the island as their own?!
"Pirate Raid" is a 28mm skirmish parents/kids game where one side takes on the British and the Island defenders, determined to stop the pirates in their tracks, and the other side takes on the dastardly pirates intent on doing things that only dastardly pirates do.
The rules are "Ye Olde Pirate Rules" by Michael T. Murphy, and Black Flag Publishing, and can easily be taught on site and played through quickly.
Each player will play a group of figures with their own decided goals to achieve victory.
Extra points and bonuses will be awarded to those intrepid adventurers dressed in period clothing, and willing to sing pirate songs to entertain everyone else!
Prizes to be awarded to best player. (Not necessarily the winning player(s) but the "best" player. (Character, play style, sportsmanship, etc.)
Sooooo....
Will the dastardly pirates do their dirty deeds, or will the British troops and The League of Gentlemanly Gentlemen and their associates be victorious?
There's only one way to find out!
Yo ho, Yo ho! A pirates life for me!
