At the end of March, Alexander and I traveled to St. Louis, Missouri to meet up with friends to play wargames all weekend during what we affectionately call “Basement CON”. We do this annually, usually in the spring, and play large multiplayer wargames with max players. In the past, we have played games like War Room, Virgin Queen, Here I Stand and Tank Duel just to name a few. This year at Basement CON, which was our fourth such gathering, we played multiple games over 3 days including Red Dragon / Green Crescent Deluxe Edition from Decision Games, War Room (again) from Nightingale Games, Dune from Gale Force Nine, Virgin Queen from GMT Games and a few others.
On the way home, we shot a car video discussing the events of the weekend and our thoughts on the games we played listed above.

Glad you both had a good time in St. Louis!
Quick question, do you have a link to the group that sponsors these conventions, I have looked, but have not been able to identify one.
Thanks!
And, a note for Alexander, Revolution Games is announcing the coming release of Gettysburg: the First Day possibly in June. This will be similar to Shiloh: the First Day. Cubes4Me offers a set of 2 trays for Shiloh and a single tray will hold the counters for your recent purchase of Thunder at Dawn.
