Blood and Plunder at Historicon 2023!
As the summer gets hotter, and June has given way to July, one of the East Coast’s premiere wargaming events is nearly upon us. Historicon! Hosted by HMGS is happening from Wednesday, July 19th through Sunday, July 23rd. A number of No Dice No Glory staff will be there playing games, running events, and buying way more minis than we could possibly paint in a lifetime.
