Flames of War at Khaos-Kon in Oshkosh

The folks from one of our favorite stores, Adventure Games & Hobby, are putting on their very own new gaming convention, Khaos-Kon and wouldn't you know it, they've asked the Battle Badgers to run a Flames of War tournament!

Battle Badgers packing up bags for the Battle on the Mississippi!

We had so much fun the last time we headed out to LaCrosse to game with our friends in the Screaming Eagles Game Club, that we're preparing to cross the state to do it again! Tom and Chuck let us know about their upcoming Bulge themed Battle on the Mississippi tournament, and the paint brushes came out. This is just the inspiration I need to finish off my Battered Bastards of Bastogne, thanks fellas!

There are details behind the link above, but at present the tournament will be on Saturday February 18th at Deaf Ear Records, 112 4th St S, in LaCrosse Wisconsin. We'll be playing 3 rounds of Late War, at 1515 point. Hope to see you there.

Congratulations to Battle Badger Ken Horton!

Our very own Ken took down Battlefront's 'Win a Team Yankee Table' competition with these gorgeous Leopard 2's. After winning the competition these deadly beauties have been terrorizing the tabletop here at the Badger Bunker.

Battle for the Cowl Adepticon 2016 Player Handbook

We've been holding off the release of this document while waiting for the recent official FAQ release to ensure we'd crossed our t's and dotted our i's. Everything looks good, so without further ado, here is the Player's Handbook for the inaugural run of Battle for the Cowl at Adepticon 2016.

Wisconsin Winter War II at Tundra Con

On Saturday, January 9th the Battle Badgers will be heading up to the American Legion Hall on College Ave in Appleton to host the second Wisconsin Winter War with our friends from the Fox River Valley Gaming Club. We had an absolute blast with this event last year! We ended up with about 14 players, and 3 wonderful rounds of Flames of War.

This year we're hoping to do much of the same. Though there are a few changes. First, we'll be playing Late War this go round, and our points total will be next year's 1420 for Late War. We're confident this will shake up a bunch of lists. More details will be coming shortly, but we're hosting a sign-up sheet now. There will be no additional cost, beyond your convention admission, to play in the Wisconsin Winter War.

Finally, even if you can't commit the time to play in our tourney, if you're in the area and have a love for war games, we suggest you take an hour or two to pop in and check out all of the great toys at Tundra Con.
 

Batman Miniatures Game at Adepticon 2016

In a branching out for the Battle Badgers, we're looking to run an event for the Batman Miniatures Game (BMG) at Adepticon 2016.

Ken Horton is leading the effort, and, given his love for all things Batman, he's the organizer we deserve. We're in discussion with Knight Models and Adepticon regarding details, and we'll be posting updates here.

New Heights at Adepticon

It seems we managed to impress a few folks, or at the very least not upset anyone too horribly, with our display and demo efforts at Adepticon last year. I'm basing this assumption on the fact that the folks at Battlefront asked us out again this past weekend for another go at Ranger Demos and a Flames of War display at Adepticon 2015. 

The Cheesehead Championship

It's been decided that the Cheesehead Championship will be coming to Kenosha, WI to our very own Rockheads Comics and Games this year. This 3 round, 1 day tournament will be taking place on Saturday May 9th. We've not solidified a cost, start time, or headcount as of yet, but we're hoping the first two will be similar to years past, and the headcount will be significantly more.
The Signup Form is just below. At this point signing up is an indication of your interest, it does not guarantee you a spot. However, when things are shored up and we're ready to roll, people who have signed up here will be given precedence. So if you're even considering making it out for this one be sure to sign up!
