We still have room for 1 more player for GMT's The Napoleonic Wars at Dave Bohnenberger's house this Saturday. If you'd like to play let me know ASAP. Thanks, ...
How was it.... Can we get an after action report ? I just bought a copy and will be ready for action very shortly. Any comments on the game would be most...
... I'm not a big one for AARs. I have actually played about 10 full games of Nappy, so I guess it's fair to say I like it. We used the new 1.1 rules available...
New goal: to get enough EB designers at WBC playing on EPGS teams that we can't fit them all! :) ... From: Bob Stribula To: epgs@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
... Salutations, gentlefolk ! Speaking as one who has known Mr. Hadley for nearly three decades, and who (I hope) was of some help to him with Origins '79 &...
In past Shorecon conventions, EPGS members have shown a very strong presence in the boardgame room running events as well as playing games. As fellow EPGS ...
I hope you will agree that this falls under the umbrella of a games query; if not, I apologize for clogging up e-mail boxes. I run a low-stakes ($40 for the...

Salutations, gentlefolk ! Should anyone be wanting a ride to Historicon from Center city or West Philly, I plan to be leaving about noon Thursday. Drop me an...

No registration issue should exist (for me anyway). I worked it out with Don G. that he has me pre-registered, and I will be there Thursday early morning to...

... Simple...make the finals in Air Baron. ;) My spot is up for grabs next year as I likely won't be able to go then. I'm hoping for a little bit of luck. 3...
Please, not the performance-based team building again - generally that's doomed to fail, because you become a target. Seriously. The odds are mostly for fun. I...
[/rant on] This is one thing I have a serious issue with at WBC. I've been to tournament events where other people ID someone at the table who was in the ...

... C'mon let's be serious now. I really don't think anyone is going to "target" a 63-1 team. The team contest is just like any other contest...it's for fun,...

Guys, I was jawing some SMACK in the vein of what these silly odds were meant to elicit. Didn't mean to stir up nest. Kinda funny. I don't go to WBC with the...

Oh, no prize for team winning except a wood trophy, I think a bigger one than the game trophies. There used to be a free room involved some years ago, but no...

Chris, I agree about issue, but nothing to do about it except not play multi- player games for anything other than victory like we do at EPGS. WBC has some...

I'm sorry about the prior message I intended to send to John but accidentally sent to the group instead. I think that's the third time I've hit REPLY expecting...
The removal of the free room prize has helped the metagaming. There really are teams out there that recruit - Eric, I know that's not what you were doing -...
Another question (I'm being anal) - How do they determine odds for teams? Do they look back to all previous times you have attended to see if you finished...

There are 2 methods: Stuart Tucker's and Randy Cox's. Both are similar. Details are discussed on the WBC folder at Consimworld. In short, they take into...

Salutations, gentlefolk ! I would like to get up to OxVal Saturday and get a game of 18xx Europa together. This is 'beta version.0.993', seems to be working...

EPGS, Anyone want to play some 2-player wargames at the Aug 16 meeting? I just picked up Granada and Monty's Gamble: Market Garden (MGMG), and I want to try...
Hey Bob! I would love to try Granada. I would also try Monty's Gamble if you have the patience to teach a wargame to someone who doesn't get to play wargames...
Hey all, I was wondering if anyone would care to join me for a game of Fette Auto this Saturday at the Oxford Valley meeting. This is a fairly new racing game ...
