GrogHeads Central Command Origins Events 2017
What’s coming up at Origins this summer? ~
GrogHeads Staff, 8 April 2017
Per GAMA, event registration goes live on 3 May.
What’s on tap this year? Plenty!
- Tournaments! We’ve got afternoon/evening tournaments for Lock’n’Load Tactical, Quartermaster General, Spearpoint 1943, and Twilight Struggle
- Team / Group events! In addition to our Command Post Wargaming, we have a pair of Team COIN games back this year, plus big team games of Old School Tactical, Sergeants!, and Crucible of Force (Slaughter in the Snow).
- Kids! We’ve got a special wargaming program this year for the kids – yes, KIDS! We’ve got 4 games that we’ll be running all weekend, in shorter 1-hour sessions. And for any kid who plays all 4 games at least once each, we’ve got a special Junior General prize. These games are for kids age 7-14, and they must have an adult come to the table with them.
Which companies are here with us?
- Griggling Games! Quartermaster General, and some expansions
- Flying Pig Games! Mark’s got 5 (five! fünf! cinco! V!) different games over the course of the weekend with us
- Enterprise Games! With their support for our GMT events again this year, we’ve Fields of Despair, Wing Leader Supremacy, some COIN events, C&C Ancients for the kids, and the Twilight Struggle tournament
- Collins Epic Wargames! We’re running Spearpoint 1943 events (for the kids, too), but look for Polyversal, also
- Lost Battalion Games! The always-awesome Sergeants! games are back, and look for their award-winning tiles, too
- Proving Ground Games! Bringing the lead to the battle, with their minis wargaming, and a special movie-monster scenario for the kids
- Lock’n’Load Games! Nations at War, LNLT, and tanks for the kids
Over 65 events across 4 days, for all your wargaming goodness. Plus, show up Wednesday afternoon and see what the staff has on the table just for their own fun 🙂
When you’re looking for our events in the Origins master event grid, they all start with “GrogHeads Presents”. We did that to make it easier to find when sorting through a giant spreadsheet with over 6000 events, however we stripped it out of the names on our event grid here just to simplify the listings.
Don’t forget that everyone who plays in our events gets a discount with our vendor partners, and gets entered for some great Sunday-morning raffle prizes. There’s also at least one prize for one of the players at every one of our events.
Note that the kids’ events – as noted above – have a special prize for kids who check out all 4 of the different games, and do not have prizes for each individual event.
