Here is the full text of the notice for the con: World in Flames GLOBAL CONFLICT : 1939-1945 AUSTRALASIAN CONVENTION 2010 Gidday gamers, We welcome everyone to join us at Australia’s first ADG endorsed Australasian World in Flames convention (ASIACON 2010) at the Murramamarang Resort South Durras from Friday 19th March to Sunday 28th March 2010. Location Murramarang is a beautiful holiday resort on the South Coast of New South Wales. You can visit its website at www.murramamarang.com.au There are a few rules and regulations to be observed so do take the time to have a look at their website. The hall has a capacity for about 10 tables and the accommodation is a two minute walk away. Accommodation We have secured an arrangement whereby the Chalet accommodation, each chalet having two bedrooms and a common area, will cost $100 a night. You can either share a chalet or have one for yourself at $100 per night. We will make the bookings for you and take care of any deposit but you will be responsible for all of the costs including reimbursing us for any deposit we make on your behalf. How to get there The South Durras turn off is about 4 Km (3 miles) north of Batemans Bay on the Princess Highway. Murramarang is at the end of South Durras. If you drive it is very easy; if you come by bus we will arrange to pick you up in Batemans Bay Registration Fill out the registration form on this homepage. Send it to: rsonsie@optusnet.com.au You will receive notice within a week of your reg. form arriving. Priority is speed of play, skills and deluxe or classic. Most players will want to play the 39 deluxe campaign. About 4 weeks before the con (Mid February) you’ll get a list of the players on your table, so you can agree on exact starting time, who brings a game, detailed optional rules and so on. Note that there is always the possibility of a last minute change to the players on your table if some players don’t show up at the last minute. Convention Cost There is no registration fee, but there is a convention charge of $150 to cover the costs of running the convention. This cost will also include an end of convention dinner. Rules The 2003 World in Flames Final edition rules will be used with both sides "bidding" for MP and Victory hexes. (You can of course also agree with the other players on your table as to whom plays what...). Teams will decide between themselves which optional rules they will play and we are happy to help resolve any issues that may arrive when deciding which options will be included in your game. If you already have a team in mind let us know and we will match you with a team that appears to have similar skills. We look forward to seeing you at one of Australia’s most beautiful beaches for 9 days of sun, surf, blood and gore. One of the game’s designers, Harry Rowland, will be competing and looks forward to challenging you to see who is the greatest Wiffer in the Southern hemisphere. If you have any queries please don’t hesitate to contact me at my email address above. Regards Ray Sonsie Convention Convenor
