2014 Director’s Welcome all-In! 2014 is finally here and I would like to take this opportunity to welcome each and Fevery one of you. This year’s convention theme kicks off the 100th anniversary of World War one and spotlights the many engagements of the first year of the war. Special Events this year include: Gordon Andrews & Mike Konwinski presenting their huge 28mm prohibition era game “Speak Easy & Carry a big stick”; Guest speakers at Fall-In! 2014 will include a wide variety of topics from the Civil War, presented by John Priest, to politics in Kiev presented by Orest Swystun. Once again in attendance will be the WWPD guys. They will be broadcasting their podcast live from Fall-In! and will be hosting the event with their usual good humored approach to gaming. Of course, there will also be a variety of special games from all periods of history – from Ancients to Modern war, and everything in between – plus a large Vendor Hall loaded with everything the hobbyist needs, a flea market, tournaments, the Hobby University and so much more! With another year come and gone as a Convention Director, I am again looking forward to an even better show this year. I hope you will find it to your liking. This year’s staff will feature many of our returning veterans as well as some new recruits. They are all working very hard to make this show the best it can be. Remember, our staff is here to assist you with any of your convention needs… all you have to do is ask! Thank You! Dan Murawski Director Fall-In! 2014 1 WALK-UP GAMES SMG Tournament at Fall in!
