Top Ten Reasons to Attend Historicon in Lancaster, PA July 22-25

10. Only place to find this many "Napoleons" without protective Plexiglas
enclosure.
9. Four day convention means you get to enjoy third-day B.O. 24 hours
longer. 8. Poor climate control at Lancaster Host allows realistic settings
for both Eastern Front and North African scenarios. 7. Only location with this
much lead that is not a Superfund site. 6. $1.50 for a can of soda at the bar.
$.75 for a can of soda 50 feet away at the soda machine down the hall. 5. Lax
Pennsylvania gun laws mean you can REALLY call for arty. 4. Convention rules
allow death penalty for playing anything by Games Workshop. 3. You can yell,
"Where you headin', general?" with no chance of a serious response. 2. Bad
news: Another game convention with lots of fanatics flipping cards at each
other. Good news: They're playing Piquet. 1. Two Words: Amish Hookers

One additional reason:

Learn where Lancaster is, so you can attend GZG - ECC III in February,
2000, featuring the games of Jon Tuffley!

And where's the Showdown turn? (Not that I'm one who can really complain,
but... I'm complaining on Indy's behalf, yeah, that's the ticket! ^_- )
