Ocean Thunder at Millenniumcon 12

I have registered to run Ocean Thunder at the Lone Star Historical Miniatures gaming convention called MilleniumCon this coming November.

The convention is being held in Round Rock, TX at the Wingate Inn and Convention Center, it starts November 6th and goes until the 8th.

There are two sessions scheduled, the first will be on Friday night starting at 8:00 pm and runs until Midnight. The second session will be starting on Saturday morning at 9:00 am.

The Friday session will be a what if scenario between the Royal British Navy and the Kriegsmarine. The Germans are trying to sink the cruise liner Queen Mary which is carrying thousands of U.S. soldiers to England for the upcoming invasion of Fortress Europa. The Brits are escorting this mighty ship and will try to drive off or sink any enemy ship to protect the Queen.

The Saturday session is a more historic in the sense that I am basing the scenario on the Battle of Cape Esperance, a battle between Japanese and U.S. cruisers and destroyers.

I will provide orders of battle for each scenario soon.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.
