We are live at Army War College in Carlisle PA for Connections Wargaming 2019. Matt Caffrey and Uwe Eickert join us and tell us all about why this conference is so important to the wargaming community.
The crew is live at Historicon 2019! We talk about Blood and Plunder and the Team Yankee tournaments… and and old friend Luke Melia from my WWPD days pops in.
After taking May off the team returns with a live show from the Advanced Squad Leader Human Wave event put on by the DC Conscripts. Mitch is with the organizer, Dave Garvin and they talk about the game and event.

With 2019 now upon us, I thought I would write up an article on what my resolutions are. These will focus on my personal goals as well as some I plan to make to grow my local gaming community.
Run Demo Games at my Local Gaming Store
Back when we had a gaming store in Culpeper, Virginia, two of my buds and myself would run demo games of Flames of War using the old V3 Tank Ace rules. It was a simple way to introduce someone into the game with the basic set of rules, and who doesn’t love tank duels?

Setting up a tournament can be challenging as winning a competition. After painting his first FOW army and , NDNG’s Paolo Paglianti decided to set up a FOW competition in his own city.
So, the old way we found out about events is over, I assume smoke signals and town criers were not cutting it, so the folks from Battlefront created the Battlefront Events website which is located This new site is a great one-stop shop for all of your events needs.
Here at NDNG, we like to listen to the gamers in our community and provide them with events we consider fun and challenging. For the last few HMGS conventions, we have been hosting Team Yankee events which include the North American Nationals each July during Historicon.
Based on the comments we got from gamers during Fall-in in November 2018 we wanted to host a narrative doubles event that will test you as a gamer and throw some wrinkles into the game that players will love. which will be held on 15 March 2019 in Lancaster PA will be the site of our first linked narrative event.

The first Annual Pea Bowl was held at Pea Soup Anderson’s Restaurant in the heart of Santa Barbara Wine Country; the restaurant is located in the city of Buellton, California just a short drive north of the city of Santa Barbara. The event was originally imagined as a Team Yankee tournament and evolved into a general games day. Games of DBA, Flames of War and HG Wells’ Little Wars were hosted in addition to the Team Yankee tournament. The event was a success and I am glad to have accomplished hosting an event in my local area as I normally have to travel substantial distances to attend any gaming events.

Kurt Reese’s beautiful Soviet army. Taking BTRs freed up the points to let him take 12 artillery!
In this episode Ed, Austin and Mitch re-cap the Flames of War Charity event they held for TAPS.org at Your Hobby Place in Fredericksburg VA. The guys raised almost $500 for TAPS and you can hear all about the event in this podcast recorded right after the dice were put down.
