There is a very loose association of Historical (and other) wargamers based on the Hartford Area, The Hartford Area Historical Gaming Society (HAHGS), and the Connecticut Game Club, which usually meets ion Stratford, CT. <br />Battle Group Boston runs a 3 day convention in Shrewsbury, MA in late March or early April every year. That is all genre, but mostly miniatures. <br /><br />For the past 6 years in a row, we have run a big one day, multiplayer (up to 20 or so) multi table (up to 14 tables) event at The Portal game space in Manchester, CT; see the "Campaigns in a Day with Snappy Nappy" page on this blog. We plan one for this April/May 2020, based upon April 1809 in Bavaria. Date TBD. <br /><br />Whereabouts are you located?
