No con can be perfect. We share what went awry this year.
THE PEOPLE
One of the best parts of Huzzah is seeing familiar people. It is a very friendly place. Shout outs to Mike Paine, Dan, Patreon backer Kyle, Wargaming Recon Fan Club members Robert & Sal & Johnny, everyone at MHWA including: Joshua, Julie, Dean, Billy, and Mike. Also the Vanguard Hobby Club but especially Ken. Adler Hobby’s Gordon and Denise.
HUZZAH
Adrian and I were at Huzzah May 18-20, 2018. We did a live recording there on Sunday May 20th. If you were at the con you could have attended the live recording. We may also have had the chance to play a game with YOU.
Announcements
Wargaming Recon Facebook Group
A place for listeners to hang out, chat about the hobby and the show. We have seen some great discussions lately. Some members have shared pics of minis they’re painting and had a lively discussion about wet palettes. Want to thank Enfilade & NHMGS for making it possible for us to back a wet palette Kickstarter. We will do a big Wet Palette episode in 2017 because of their support.
