Gen Con Indy Begins Aug 5th

Summer Break Ends for Indy Squadron
Society Announces Gen Con Event Line-Up
Gen Con Warm-Up Gaming Moves to Union Station

Indy's traditional June/July summer break is fast coming to a close and some exciting things are on the horizon. Upcoming events include Gen Con (see complete Fits Society event listing below) and a resumption of the exciting Ludendorff Campaign series. All this should produce a typically fast-paced and fun autumn gaming season. 

April's Red Baron Fight spurs May gaming, but summer events usually overcome our schedule in June and July. This invariably leads to assumptions that gaming will not resume and the apocalypse has occurred, but in reality it is quite predictable and happens the same pretty much every year. Likewise, excitement over Gen Con shakes us from our midyear slumber in August and gaming is back in full swing in September and continues throughout the following spring. So dust off your dice and get ready for Gen Con and a full slate of fall gaming. 


Gen Con Warm Up gaming is set for Wednesday, August 4th starting at 1 pm. This year it will be held at the Crowne Plaza Union Station on South Meridian Street in downtown Indianapolis. 

Thanks to George Henion for setting up Warm Up gaming and getting this year's Gen Con event list to ISD.
