Fall In Picture Dump
By the Throckmorton, Judson and Luke
Fall-In is a convention put on by
HMGS, usually in October or November at the
Lancaster Host in Lancaster, PA. It is the smallest of the HMGS conventions, however it packs a lot of action into a weekend. If you have not attended one of their conventions you are truly missing a great time.
If you listened to the "
LIVE from Fall-In" podcast, you know how much we enjoyed this convention. We gathered up some pictures to give a brief pictorial overview. If you missed Fall In, make sure you book now to catch us at
Cold Wars, in March!

 |
| Alan won the fully painted army from the Flames tournament. |
 |
| Ed came up just short (on strength of opponent) while Mitch revels with the rest of us in the middle of the pack. |
A scatological nightmare...
 |
| Yes, this would happen to be the giant septic truck that had to be called in on Friday morning, the opening day of the convention, for the men's restroom. This was Judson's worst nightmare come to life. |
 |
The registration line is not shown in the picture, but it is directly across from the restroom. The people in line just shook their heads, not in amazement, but rather a sense of group shame. |
 |
| I don't know what game was going to be played here, but the terrain was awesome! |
 |
| Look at these suave dudes right here. |
Friday Flames Doubles Tournament:

Random, and all around cool bits:
 |
| This is the BSG game. It looks so good. It just has that epic space combat feel to it. |
 |
| All's Quiet on the Martian Front. I have no idea how it plays, but it looks fantastic! |
 |
| Hey you guys want to see my Light Ranger? |
 |
| And the coolest tattoo of the convention goes here. You have to be a Dr. Who fan. |
 |
| Luke and Jon gatecrashing Scott and Chris's game. |
 |
