After a hiatus due to the closure of the usual venue for the Conference of Wargamers (COW), we have found a replacement at rather short notice, and the conference will be going ahead as usual from 8th to 10th July.
As I am currently the Treasurer and Membership Secretary of Wargame Developments (I have been doing the job since WD was founded back in 1980!), I am having to process the final payments and booking for the conference. Luckily, taking it easy after my operation means sitting down quite a lot, so I can do almost all of the work from the comfort of my office swivel chair!
The residential conference costs £310.00 (including full board) and is open to members of Wargame Developments. I hope to publish details of the sessions later this week so that non-members can get some idea of what they are missing! The conference is NOT a wargames show but does host a large number of games, discussions, lectures etc., where wargamers and wargame designers can exchange ideas and concepts, experience new and sometimes very novel approaches to wargame design, and discuss wargaming, both formally and informally. There is nothing quite like COW anywhere else in the world in the fields of professional or recreational wargaming ... which probably accounts for its longevity.
