Events posted for NJcon

To All,
The events have been posted for NJcon. You can check it out here - http://www.njcon.org/  

Although it doesn't say it anyone bringing a painted unit of gnomes from Brigade Games does not have to pre-register. Here are the two games I will be running:

Gnome Wars: The Brawl for Lunkhead’s Brewery
Description: Upset over the rising cost of beer Swiss and Scottish gnomes attack Lon the Lunkhead’s brewery to secure their stash for the winter. Can Lon hold out, or will he have to make a run for it?
GM(s): Jim Stanton
Rules: Gnome Wars
Scale: 28mm
Club or Sponsor: Brigade Games
No. of Players: 8

Gnome Wars: The Battle of Saragarhi
Description: Northwest Frontier Province - 1897. A signalling relay post called Saragarhi stands on a bluff mid-way between Fort Lockhart and Fort Gulistan to provide heliographic communications between them. On September 12th, hordes of enemy laid siege to Fort Lockhart and Saragarhi, with the aim of overrunning the fort while at the same time preventing Saragarhi for signaling for help.Twenty one Sikhs from the 36th Sikhs under the inspiring leadership of their detachment commander, Havildar Ishar Singh, resolve not to hand over the signal post to the enemy and seek safety elsewhere, go to the walls and wait for the assault. Havildar Singh knows well that Saragarhi will fall, because a handful of gnomes in that make-shift fort of stones & mud walls can not stand the onslaught of a six hundred enemy. These plucky gnomes know that they will go down, but they have resolved to do so fighting to the last.
