For your consideration - input on events in 2019

[barca]

Listed below is a proposed schedule of Flames of War, Team Yankee and other RCDD gaming events in the Portland OR, area, in 2019, JAN to JUN.
    Weekly: Every Thursday at Guardian Games. (1), 6:00-9:30 PM
    Weekly: Most Tuesdays at Oregon City Geeks & Games (2), 6:00-9:30 PM
    Monthly: Saturdays, as listed below.

THEMES: I recommend that Thursday nights re-use the previous Saturday's theme, since some people can make either THU or SAT, but usually not both.

GM: Unless otherwise noted, the GM for most events is barca.
    If someone wants to be the GM for an event, please step forward.
    Anyone in Washington interested in hosting an event?

LOCATIONS: Unless otherwise noted, the location for most events is Guardian Games.
    We might move events on the Fourth Saturday of each month to Oregon City Geeks & Games.
    If you host an event, you can arrange a different location (e.g., Oregon City Geeks & Games, Game Matrix (Tacoma), Gabi's Olympic Cards & Comics (Lacey), The Panzer Depot (Kirkland)).

    To be considered/discussed:
·         Wings-of-Glory and Flames of War combined battle: Stukas Over Stalingrad
·         Zombies in Stalingrad. Flames of War Special Event. This is a cross-over horror game, scenario is “home-brewed”
·         City Fight – Stalingrad. Flames of War Special Event
·         Kursk Mega battle. Flames of War Special Event
·         Great War – one or more demonstration games

It would be great if we could schedule a few events at Fate and Fury in Vancouver once a month or two. I will see what I can set up.
