Mandarin's Corner

Last summer I made y first journey to a East Coast miniature convention, and I had a real blast. My buddy Jeff and Freddy normally come out East twice a year: Historicon in the summer, and Cold War in the winter. Cold War is the smaller of the two, and normally happens around this time of the year. Since I happen to be on a once in a lifetime sabbatical this time around, I decided to come along.

One main reason I decided to come to Cold Wars is to demo my new "play miniatures online" program called Little Cyber Wars. I won't bore you with the details of the program here, since I have created some marketing literature on my new yahoo group which discusses the program in a lot more details.

We flew in at around 3:00PM, and by the time we made the 90 min car ride to Lancaster it's already dinner time. A quick stroll around the gaming area shows that nothing much is happening. The only game of note being setup is Dave Waxtel's Crimea War game, which is one of the "main event" at the con (Cold Wars and Historicon normally have "themed" games. For Cold War this time it's Wars of the later 1800's. It'll be D-Day for Historicon '04).
