Here is the proposed schedule of events for Historicon, set to take place 7/20 to 7/24 2022 in Lancaster PA. Further events could be added, if there i enough demand and if we hear about it soon enough to grab table space.
Wednesday 7/20 6PM to 9PM PACTO demos. This is intended to be an introduction to the rules for new players. All troops, terrain, dice, measuring sticks, etc. will be provided. An experienced player will be available to teach the rules and explain mechanics. Simon Hall is planning to be there a well to answer questions. In addition, we will have space for a pickup Maximus game or two on the side if anyone is interested.
Thursday 7/21 9AM-noon- More PACTO demos as above, We requested extra tables for pickup games for this slot as well.
Thursday 7/21 2PM to 8PM- The Battle of Phillipopolis, 250CE. This will be a multiplayer MAGNA game for 8-10 players. Each player will get a command of 4 units of Romans or their allies versus Goths or their allies. All troops, terrain, and mats will be provided. All you have to do is show up and roll skulls.
Friday 7/22 and Saturday 7/23. The US Open MeG Championships. This will be a 4 round 15mm open tournament. The standard format will be used; 10,000 point lists from any official MeG source. All lists will be checked by Simon in advance and must be emailed to simon@psc-games.co.uk by no later than 7/7/2022. Two rounds will be played each day from 9AM to 6PM. A referee will be provided, and Simon will be present. Please bring your army, any terrain you want to roll for, and a game mat if you have one.
PSC plans to be there in force and plans to present demos in MeG, Divisins of Steel, Battleground, and Rome Total War, the boardgame.
We want this event to be a 'coming out party' for the UA MeG scene, and we hope for some UK and European players joining in the tourney. We hope to get a highly skilled and diverse field. They key is a good turnout among US players, to make a splash and build interest from all the foot traffic that walks past during a Historicon.
See you there!
