80th ANNIVERSARY MARKET GARDEN GAME AT MINI-WARS SEPT 28th in O.C.


CALLING ALL FANS OF EPIC GAMES,

VETERANS & NEWBIES ALIKE!


On Saturday September 28th

the St. Crispin’s Irregulars Wargaming Club

is going…

 

A BRIDGE TOO FAR!

 

Join us at the upcoming HMGS-PSW Mini-Con 2024 and try to succeed where the Allies failed!  Can you take and hold the Bridge over the Rhine, making it possible to beat the Russians to Berlin and win WWII by Christmas of 1944?  Show up and find out!


WHEN:

Starting at 9:00am on Saturday September 28th 2024


WHERE:

The Howard Johnson by Wyndham Hotel & Conference Center

222 W. Houston Ave, Fullerton, CA 92832


We kick off at 9:00am and will go until XXX Corps reaches 

The British 1st Airborne Division

OR

The Red Devils are overrun like they were, tragically, in 1944.


We need players all morning, afternoon and night.


If you can't be there at the start, stop by any time

& you may get a chance to step in and command troops.


*   *   *   *   *

We’ve done Eindhoven...


We've done Nijmegen...
 

And of course, we’ve done Arnhem...

 

BUT WE'VE NEVER DONE THEM

ALL TOGETHER IN ONE MEGA-GAME BEFORE. 

Do we have enough troops, terrain & tables?  YES!

Have we play-tested it?  YES!

Will it work?  YES!

Are we nuts?  Maybe.

…but that never kept anyone from enjoying our games before!

The Head GM for this game asked me to post these 2 pics 

showing German success vs. the lead element of

XXX Corps on Hell's Highway and are his favorites

out of all the many photos taken at the many different

"component" games  from Operation Market Garden

we've played over the years, since it recreated reality

so closely...
