The StarFleet Game will continue to the end of the current season in December 2008.
Future plans include taking on the Klingon concept of 'the great game'.
Want to know more about my view of 'the great game'?
Send me an email.
I have plans to do a large semi-LARP at the Feb 2009 DakKon XIV, though the details for this are still a bit fuzzy and more playtest, revisions and preparations (such as locating costumes and props) will need to be done over the next year.
So far I have cast my KING, and plan to do some games with him involved, more to play over the winter.
The game is based on the White Wolf system: Long Live the King, with some revisions for use in the convention atmosphere.
UPDATE: Sunday FEBRUARY 22, 2009.
Please contact Jeff Hudelson at bluebear@uniserve.com for more information.
These games will represent a chance to play in the LARP for those whom may not get out to DakKon (where the final full game is planned to be played out) or whom want to play other things at DakKon and still would like to try out this sort of "Live-Action Role-Play" experience.
Board-Game Geek has this to say about the game.
Still continuing into 2009, I will be frantically painting more Austrians in preparation for games involving the 5th Coalition.
With the 2009 plans starting to come into clearer focus:
Should there be interest, I would like to run a War of 5th Coalition Campaign game. The details are now coming into focus, but would center around players taking the part of key commanders from the Austrian and French Armies of the pivotal 1809 campaign.
Provided there are players then the tabletop games noted below would be 'adjusted' to match major engagements of the "campaign" rather than just re-fights of the historical battles...
any takers??? Just email arcadian@umpire.com
April 2009 will see a game from the Storm over Bavaria campaign;
in May 2009 I plan a two-sunday game series featuring the Battle of Aspern-Essling.
June/July 2009 brings another two-sunday game series, this time table-gaming out the Battle of WAGRAM; with the final part taking place on the exact 200th anniversary of this pivotal Napoleonic Battle!
July/August 2009 brings the Peninsular into focus with a two-sunday game series of the Battle of Talevera (also very nearly the 200th anniversary!).
Looking really far ahead into 2010, it will be my hope to find some interested parties in trying to run some Napoleonic Campaigns, using the web and email to organize the nations, then the tabletop(s) to fight out the battles.
For any interested in such an action (possibly with some work-ups over the next few years) please email me:

More to come....
