This is the first actual Bolt Action Tournament in Albuquerque ever? In a while? As far as I’m aware no one has tried
before. We have a growing community of gamers I have created a discord for, the New Mexico Historic and Other
Games, so the NM HOGs. We are working on an emblem and mascot (a javelina wearing a helmet and military gear).
The idea being to make Operation Roadrunner a yearly thing, grow the community here, and hopefully get space to run
this event at War in the Wasteland next year. (WitW was supposed to be a NM gaming expo held by several of the local
stores and several very passionate local gamers. The first year was a little rough, but their 40k tournament and Narrative
event seemed to go off without a hitch. I was able to do several K47 demos there as the event went on. They had to
downsize this year due to venue change and space restrictions, the owner of Taven is one of the organizers for the event
so showing him we can actually run a tournament might help toward that goal). All of this will hopefully lead to more
events for Bolt Action and Konflikt 47 in New Mexico.
With any luck this is also show the local games stores that Bolt Action and Konflikt 47 are a thing here in ABQ. The store
I was previously the SARGE for (Hammersmiths Guild) decided to stop selling the product and I just learned a few days
ago that the store we are having the tournament at (Tavern of Souls) moved all their BA/K47 stuff to the discount table to
get rid of it all. They said they would still do direct orders, but carrying the product in the store is in question. So, it’s time
for the local community of historic and weird war gamers to make a show of force.
