Roman Social Event, Nijmegen (NL)
#1
There are lots of ways to enjoy your interest in the Roman past. On March 22nd, you'll be able to show how in Nijmegen (NL). Reenactors are encouraged to bring their latest kit (or kit in development), wargamers are invited to show how battles are fought in miniature, modellers to display their latest creations, historians are welcome to tell about their latest research, and anyone else with a passion in the Roman past should certainly come and see in which ways you can entertain yourself during dark winter evenings!

Interested? Post here or send me an email if you're planning to come (so we can ensure we've got a sufficient number of tables, etc)
Greets!

It will be in a room at a cafe, not in the museum. Which one it will be is still unclear, but we hope to know that soon.

Yup, a cafe because that'll keep entry fees non-existant and coffee handy!

It'll be cafe Groenewoud, easy to reach and park. They have a nice big back room with plenty of space for tables. I'm planning to demo a little gladiator game with 28mm models.

No real program, but we'll have a talk about the Millingen liburna by its master carpenter, a WAB demo battle (the Trebbia, no less!), Ancient Warfare, Mithridates Miniatures, reenactors from all over NL with their latest kits and some short movies by Phalera Productions. It promises to be a fun and interesting gathering!
