Chris Palmer This past Saturday, October 10th, the HAWKS hosted their annual one-day miniatures gaming convention, BARRAGE, in Havre De Grace Maryland. With a record attendance, and a record number of games, a good time was had by all. Below are some highlight photos of the event.
Next, year BARRAGE will be expanding to 2 days, 9.30.16 – 10.1.16, so mark your calendar now!

In the morning, I ran a game of “Bear Yourselves Valiantly” called Island of the Lizardmen, which featured an alliance of Dwarves and Lizardmen fighting off invading Elves. |
A father-son team ran the Dwarf faction, and successfully defended their encampment from the Elves which were attacking it. |
A wide range of dealers and flea-marketers were located around the outer wall of the room. Lots of gaming goodies were to be had. |
Rich Heffner’s Aerodrome is always a crowd favorite at the con. |
