HISTORICON 2006
When I e-mailed everyone on my mailing list that I was going to Historicon
I got back some asking what is Historicon?
Well its a gaming convention devoted to historical gaming. Its held at the
Lancaster Host PA, over 4 days in July every year. This year it drew over 3,800 people and
around 100 dealers offering everything from figures to terrain. And games that range from
ancients to ulta moderns with a little Si-Fi and no Fantasy. There are tournament,
seminars and a painting competition. The gaming goes from 9am until the wee hours.
If your a gamer and within driving distance you should try and make the next one,
you'll love it!
I'll let you know the dates for next year as soon as I
know.
I hope you enjoy the photos
The dealer area in the indoor tennis court building. Some people come just
for this. Dealers from Austriaila, England and Calif. came this year.
The pool area at the sprawling Lancaster Host resort you can bring the whole
family. Snack bars are open till 11pm for the gamers.
SJM table, because I fly up I only bring painted figures. For a Historical
Con I sold a lot of fantasy figures.
