Chris Palmer This past weekend, a group of five of the HAWKs: Buck Surdu, Geoff Graff, Greg Priebe, Don Hogge, and I, headed down to Nashcon in Franklin, TN. We rented a mini van to carry us, our figures, and the terrain we would need for 6 games. It was a bit of a challenge squeezing everything into the vehicle, but we managed it somehow. Part of the plan was that we would re-use the same two sets of terrain for the 5 different games. Thursday afternoon we headed out and arrived at the con Friday morning.
Figuring out how to fit it all in, so no one had to ride on the roof rack! |

Here’s a long view of Don’s table, and a general look at the main gaming hall. In the end, the American’s won, having destroyed the Japanese radio hut with a white phosphorous round. |
A close up of the table at the start of Buck’s game. You can see the radio hut and bunker are still burning from the first game. |
A close up of Russian troops charging the French hasty fortifications. Their initial success put the whole French line in jeopardy, but stiff French resistance eventually drove them back. |
A look at the Allied left, as Beastmen prepare to storm the Elven right flank. A force of Elf Knights desperately tries to hold the bridge over a canal. |
The HAWKs had a great time as always at Nashcon. It is a really well run show with a lot of great folks attending. We look forward to our next trip back to Tennessee!
