Greetings from the Frozen Tundra.

Welcome to TundraCon.  The purpose of this blog is to serve as an informative space for Northeast Wisconsin's newest miniature wargaming convention, TundraCon.  We'll start with the particulars.

What is TundraCon?

TundraCon is a one day convention for miniature wargaming of all types.  Gamers interested in running historical, fantasy, or science fiction games are all welcome.  In addition to an interesting array of games to play, tables will be made available for a flea market.

Where is TundraCon?

TundraCon will be held at the American Legion Hall at 3220 W College Ave in Appleton Wisconsin.

When is TundraCon?

TundraCon will be held on Saturday January 10, 2015 from 9AM to 11PM.  Admission is $10 at the door.

Who is running TundraCon?

The convention began with one of those post game chats in my basement.  We don't have an official club name or organization.  We're just a group of geographically local gamers who have been getting together for the last three years most weekends. Five of us thought that it would be nice to get together on a weekend in a large venue, with as many fellow enthusiasts as we could to run some really nice looking games.  My name is Dan Wideman.  You can see some of the games we've had at my blog GoinGaming.blogspot.com.  Also please check out Michael's blog, campaignsinminiature.blogspot.com for lots of eye candy.

What games will be run?

Currently we have commitments for games of Flames of War, War of 1812, WW2 Naval, American Civil War, and A Call to Arms Star Trek.  We hope to add to this list.  If you are interested in running a game contact us at tundracon15@gmail.com
