Convention Updates 26-27

Convention Updates 2026-2027

Carnage 29

I will be attending Carnage 29 and running 4 games. All 4 will be using “Light Bobs” American War of Indepence rules and will be played using 3D printed 40mm troops. No glasses needed 🙂

Fall In 2026

I will be attending the full show but will not have a booth.
I am running 5 games. As you can see my games have been approved but they haven’t really started adding them to the on line schedule. I am doing 3 “Light Bobs” American War of Indepence games.

Back around 2001 I came across a cool game in an issue of The Midwest Wargamers Newsletter (MWAN). Itwas basically a one day Battle of The Bulge. The table was divided up into squares roughly 15 miles square and game units were mostly divisions. So I am running two games.

Maine Con 2027

February 27th, Biddeford Maine
This is a fairly new, 1 day convention. I believe it ran before but I missed it. Anyway how can I not go to a “Maine Con” as it was the name of those great conventions put on by Peter Rice for nearly 20 years back in the 1970-1990’s.

This show appears to be a “Carnage Lite” as most of the games currently listed are all FRP, cards and board games.

I have applied for a booth and plan on showing off my large 3D Fantasy Line.

To compliment this I have applied to run The Battle of 5 Armies from The Hobbit. I will use my 40mm painted armies and the rules will be “Lion Rampant” big battle from “Acre” from “LittleWars TV”.

Well that is a wrap so far. Hopw to some of you at these shows 🙂

TR Historical has produced two different shirts for the show – ‘Pointe du Hoc‘ (one color) and ‘Siege of Troy‘ (available in two colors).

IMPORTANT DELIVERY INFORMATION: Shirts must be ordered by October 1st to be available for pickup at TR Historical’s booth at the show, or shipped (mid-to-late October) to you before the show. After October 1st only shipping will be available, with delivery after the show.

Event Submissions

Event Submissions are open, and to-date we have received 306 Event Submissions. The deadline for Event Submissions is October 4th – less than two weeks away. Please help our Event staff avoid a “last minute crunch” by submitting your events as early as possible.

Most submitted Events have been initially Approved; as soon as they are Scheduled (i.e., placed on a specific table/location) they will appear in the public Events Schedule for Fall In! 2026 on TableTop.Events.

Attendee Badges

Attendee Badges will go on sale on Friday, September 25th at 7:00pm Eastern. Non-Member Badges can be accessed directly via the Fall In! 2026 “Get Your Badge” page on TableTop.Events.

For Member Pricing, Members will need to verify their Membership by logging in to the HMGS User portal and then selecting the “FI26 Member Badges” menu item. The Member Pricing Verification Page will then be displayed with links to the Member Badges.

Event Tickets

Remember that, on TableTop.Events, you can “like” Events as soon as they are Scheduled – “Liked” Events will appear in your “My Schedule” and the “Events Schedule” can be filtered to only show your liked events. Then when Event Tickets are available all you have to do is go down your “Liked” list clicking “Get” on each liked Event.

Event Tickets will be available on Friday, October 16th at 7:00pm Eastern.

Come join us for a great weekend of gaming activities at the Wyndham Resort on November 6th through 8th.
