At 12:01 am June 6th, 2014 dice will start rolling at Outpost Gaming in Kenosha, WI. They won't stop rolling until at least 72 hours have passed, resulting in a new Guinness World Record.
It's the 70th anniversary of D-Day. As such, we plan to primarily play Flames of War, focusing on the events of Operation Overlord (covered by Overlord and Atlantik Wall). Anyone is welcome to join for as little or as long as they wish.
Flames of War isn't the only game welcome - space will be provided for whatever other games people want to play. Bring your favorite game, or play one from our library.
This post will be continually updated with information about the event.

Battlefront's new plastic Mark IV's!
We're taking a look at a part of Battlefront's new plastic range today, GBX79, the plastic Panzer IV H platoon. I've always loved the Panzer IV. Everyone knows and loves the big cats, but my heart has always belonged to this little workhorse.

Outpost Gaming's Operation Overlord 2014
Ken at Outpost Gaming in Kenosha, Wisconsin approached us recently with a very ambitious idea. Ken's looking to celebrate the 70th anniversary of D-Day by setting a world record playing Flames of War for an entire weekend, and he'd like the Battle Badgers help in doing it.
We're very excited about this event, and have all sorts of work to do to get ready. We've got tables to build, armies to buy, build, and paint, and lots of new friends to make. We're really looking to pack the house with this one, so let us know if you're interested in attending! Keep an eye on our blog, and the Flames of War site for more details.

Flames of War Ranger Demos and Normandy Display at Adepticon
The Battle Badgers will be at Adepticon on the afternoons of Friday and Saturday April 4th and 5th. We'll be demoing Flames of War for anyone looking to learn. We'll also have one of the boards from our upcoming Normandy Event on loan from our good friends at Outpost Gaming. We've not yet decided which table is coming along, so if you have an opinion let us hear it.
Flames of War Ranger Demos at Midwest Gaming Classic
The folks at the Midwest Gaming Classic have decided to take a step outside of their traditional world of arcade cabinets, computers, and consoles, and a step into the wonderful world of tabletops, dice, and little army men.

Come join us at the Sheraton at 375 South Moorland Road, in Brookfield, Wisconsin.. Further details are available on their site here.
