Table One: Delaying Action — Ukraine 1941
Game Master: Ray Gluck
Rules: Fistful of Lead
Players: 4–6
It is 1941, and German forces are pushing rapidly through Ukraine toward Crimea. Large-scale Soviet resistance has been shattered, but smaller delaying actions continue to cost the advancing Germans valuable time.
Command Soviet marines, tankers, and NKVD troops—or lead German infantry and tankers pressing forward. Can the defenders buy precious time, or will the attackers break through?
Table Two: Action Under Sail
Presented by Steve King
Napoleonic Naval Gaming
Clear the decks and prepare for action! Join Steve King for Napoleonic naval gaming with Action Under Sail. Take the battle to sea and put your command decisions to the test.
Table Three, If Needed: Chariot Race
Game Master: Kevin Fitzpatrick
Trade the battlefield for the racing circuit! Kevin Fitzpatrick will have Chariot Race available if a third table is needed. Take the reins and race for glory!
Watch, Ask Questions, or Join the Action
Join the Big Muddy Historical Gaming Alliance – St. Louis for public educational historical-gaming demonstrations exploring World War II and conflicts in the Age of Sail.

Visitors are welcome to observe, ask questions, and participate. No prior gaming experience is required!
Bring a friend, pull up a chair, and enjoy a week of tabletop adventure. We look forward to seeing you around the tables!
