The terrain boards come pre-shaped including flat sections to rolling hills, rocky outcroppings and boards that contain rivers and road sections. Old Glory will also provide free rule books in the AdeptiCon 2010 swag bags, including a random assortment from Cowboy Wars, Vampire Wars, Gladiator Wars and Samurai Wars.

Old Glory is also the licensed distributor for Blue Moon Manufacturing and Crusader Miniatures USA. Old Glory miniatures cover a variety of scales, 10mm, 15mm and 25/28mm, while their ships come in an even wider range of scales. Flames of War enthusiasts will love their two lines of 15mm miniatures for WWII, the Command Decision and True North Miniatures.
At AdeptiCon, Old Glory will be focusing on their foam products, but if there is something in particular that you want them to bring, just email them in advance at oldgloryshipyard@gmail.com and they’ll make sure to bring them with so that you can pick them up at AdeptiCon 2010.
