General Historical Topics’, Such As Campaign Dynamics and Ancient Historiography
SLINGSHOT INDEX INTRODUCTION This index is based on the Slingshot Index 1965-1995 compiled by Philip Sabin and Derek Whittenbury. This has been updated to include all articles from 1996-2007 by Richard Jeffrey-Cook. It is arranged by Subjects and gives full page references to indicate the length of articles. It gives details of authors and titles, and so offers a clearer sense of the content of individual contributions. Indexing Slingshot is a subjective process. Individual contributions often range over multiple subjects in history and wargaming, making them very hard to classify under a single heading. Debates and ideas bounce back and forth from issue to issue, rather than being neatly summarised in a single specific piece. Some letters or reviews may be longer and more detailed than some formal articles, while even short notes may contain invaluable corrections or other nuggets of information. Some material becomes dated and irrelevant almost immediately, while other material (even from the earliest issues) has a timeless value and significance. In the face of these problems, the following Index eschews firm rules and embodies some highly subjective judgements in order to make the material more traceable. The basic principle is a two-tier approach, including all pieces of around one page or more. From issue 153, a second layer of detail is added, including shorter and more ephemeral pieces. The index is organised on regional, chronological and thematic rather than alphabetic lines. It is organised in ten sections that move broadly from historical through to wargaming topics, though many pieces include an element of both. -
HMGS Cyberwars 2020: Recaps of Historicons Past by Russ Lockwood
HMGS CyberWars 2020: Recaps of Historicons Past By Russ Lockwood With coronavirus hitting the pause button on conventions, I thought it might be interesting to compile my recaps of Historicons past. The latest recap was from 2019 and the earliest from 1993. I did not attend every one, notably the relatively recent conventions in Fredericksburg, but perhaps this compilation will encourage others who attended those and other Historicons to add their own experiences. My recaps cover the events I observed or participated in, so I readily admit my point of view did not see all and know all. As I worked my own MagWeb.com booth for a dozen years, my earlier recaps are even more limited in nature. Each recap was written just after the show, so they’ll be fairly accurate, but I’ll add a disclaimer and apology here about errors that may have crept in at the time, any omissions if I didn’t see your event or product, and uneven photo quality. Still, in our social-distancing isolation, perhaps some of these recaps will trigger a memory or two about a time when we could crowd around a table and toss dice. Enjoy! HMGS List of Historicons: HMGS has a list of Historicons (1984-2019) up on its website with the year, days, theme, convention director, attendance (2007-2019), most program covers, and some with ‘photo albums’ attached. https://www.hmgs.org/general/custom.asp?page=HconArchive HMGS CONVENTIONS 2021 Fall-In 2020: The Fall-In convention that was to be held in October was cancelled. -
