Gloucester MiniCon 2012 - Sunday 29th January
#47
Some notes from last night, apologies for the rather random order:

Simon R, Justin, Luke and myself met with Chris Averiss from the Gloucester Games Bunker, and Robie from Precinct Omega/GCN Gloucestershire.

The event itself will be on Sunday 29th January, hosted by the Gloucester Games Bunker at the Gloucester Centre for the Deaf. Other clubs attending include ourselves, the Cheltenham Warchiefs, and the Evesham Wargames Club.

The Evesham group will be running a game of Sharp Practice, and Cheltenham will be running SAGA. Gloucester will be running Skrapyard (penned by Robie) and Amaranthian Wars (penned by Chris). Other games mentioned were Kings of War and Warpath.

Mantic are coming along, and Alessio Cavatore is hosting a Shuuro tournament.

There will also be a 500 pt "Combat Patrol" Warhammer 40K tournament, as well as a painting competition. There is also the possbility of a bring and buy stall.

There will be 10 games in total, and we've been allocated two 4x4 tables next to each other, one for Warmachine and one for Cutlass. There is potential to have a small stand/banner between the two tables to promote the club.

One the day itself we will set-up from 8.30am onwards (fueled by bacon butties) to be ready for doors open at 10.00am. The day will then run to a 4.30-5.00pm close. Informal gaming can continue afterwards, although we will lose half the hall at this point.

Prior to this there will be a dress rehearsal day on Saturday 10th December where we will have the opportunity to hone our presentation/hosting skills, and try out the other games.

There will also be a final planning meeting on November 30th, but we are not required to attend this.

Volunteers are required to marshall the car park, supervise the door, man a possible "bring and buy" stand, and help administer the painting competition. If anyone can commit to helping out with any of these tasks then please let me know.

And there's a bar.

I think that's covered most things, but please raise any questions you have.
