Hello!
The second annual David L. Arneson Memorial Maritime Mayhem Miniatures
event will be held at The Source Comics and Games on Saturday, April
10th, 2010 at noon.
Dave's infamous Tekumel character, the rascally Captain Harchar, will
feature in two epic sea fights: "Captain Harchar versus the Hlyss nest-
ship", in which the captain tries to keep his crew and passengers from
becoming living incubators for the larvae of these insectoid non-
humans; and "Captain Harchar versus the Customs Officials", in which
the captain tries to get his cargo of unlicensed, untaxed, and
undeclared luxury good past an armada of enraged customs and excise
officials while dealing with his piratical associates in the Clan of
the Blazoned Sail.
No experience needed; rules and miniatures will be provided. No fixed
times for players to participate; drop in and out as you want. For further information, please feel free to e-mail me: chirine@aethervox.net
Thanks!
yours, Chirine
I'm not much one for minis, but this is in my neck of the woods. I'm interested!
I doubt that I could attend, but I thought I'd spread the word a little by posting your information in a thread on my OD&D Discussion (http://odd74.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=blackmoor&thread=3371) board. We have a number of Dave's fans who post there regularly and might be interested. :)

We'd be delighted to have you. Like most of the game we run, the miniatures are mostly props we use to tell the story; expect a lot of Dave Arneson stories and not a whole lot of finicky miniatures playing!

You could have a look at //www.tekumel.com if you like, or just read something like "The Pyrates" by George Macdonald Frasier. (Classic pirate movies work, too.) It's going to be a lot of swashbuckling, swordplay, and sinkings...
