BPA WAM VI - Baltimore Jan 24-27, 2008
WAM is 2 player historical card driven games “genre” convention for competitive, experienced, fun gamers. We are in our sixth year. We have strong attendance from the top strategic gamers in the world, the best game designers and the card driven gaming clan. It's a great con to play all the 2 player Card Driven Wargames like Paths of Glory, Twilight Struggle, For the People, The Wilderness Wars, Hannibal verses Rome, We the People, Triumph of Chaos, Shifting Sands, Empire of the Sun and Barbarossa to Berlin, sample some of the new in-development card driven games, enjoy the world's best BBQ, try to grab the gold in the annual March Madness Tourney and engage in a little what not.
Although WAM has official BPA tournaments, the convention excels at being a great place to learn how to play these titles - given that many game designers, gm's and top strategy players attend. The purpose of WAM is to have a blast playing serious strategy games with friends during the dead of winter: the games, friends and BBQ warm the soul!
