So, the Cold War's PEL has finally been released and despite this being my favorite of the HMGS conventions I'm a bit underwhelmed. I know there are plenty of events to sign up for. I also know that there are plenty of odd games at the ends of the historical spectrum. Frostgrave gets the distinction of being the dominate non-historical game (at least the Gnomes had a historical bent to them most games). The game I'm most interested in? Star Wars comes to Schlegel's Ferry.
The PEL can be found here.
