***Date has been changed***
The new dates will be May 15, 16 and 17. Due to some conflicts, how close this is to tribal wars at Tolcom and that May 10 is Mothers day we have pushed the event one week back. I am really sorry for any inconvenience this may cause anyone. I have sent out Emails to current registrants and the majority have agreed that this would be a better date and so will our wives and Moms! I have put a ton of work into making this event, I have spent lots of money and worked countless hours preparing rations, Building props, Brainstorming about missions and game play and promoting this event. I really want it to be a memorable one especially for our first event in New England. It is still 5 weeks out so I don't think it will be too much of a problem for most. If there is anything I can do please Email me at WW2WFAA@aol.com.
Again I am really sorry for the abrupt changeof date. Thanks, Gerry

Especially since you and your Unit CO make up 2/3 of the German command staff. -Gerry

Tyler, I promise that you and your guys will enjoy this more than a blankfire reenactment! Especially since you and your Unit CO make up 2/3 of the German command staff. -Gerry Yes, Don't worry we will be there! Also, We wouldn't let you guys down. And I've confirmed that we have another German from out unit coming! I will be registering him as soon as i get the time (Probably tonight) I have some paperwork to do with for the unit. Also, Gerry, Can i make one mass payment for the unit from PayPal or A money order? Depends which i will use, probably a money order. One more thing: We are an infantry unit, we do not have panzer troops uniforms and gear.. we can go just white piped infantry right? Thanks, Tyler P.S.. Mccallion, I'm Tyler, The one who was talking about the Half Track is hunter.... And, unless you have rubber track inserts in your tracks, You can't drive it on the road.... Also, I believe the average speed of a Half track is around 37-45 MPH. So no highway! One more thing... If you guys do drive it up, Bering your earplugs and oil your tracks reall good! lol.

Of course Tyler you can make a mass payment and I have changed the Panzer to Heer Infantrie awhile ago any mix of German uniform will do as this scenario takes place in the final months of the war. Thanks Tyler, Gerry

BTW: They don't want you ripping up the roads... Thats why they don't let you drive steel tracked vehicles on the road.
