Why doesn't it say Grogheads?  ???

I've asked GAMA the same thing...

Moreover, they didn't really update from last year, b/c it still shows Lost Battalion Games in there w/ us and they're only in the exhibit hall.  Collins Epic Wargames is in there with us instead.

Actually, it says Grogheads all over the place on that map. Almost every square has 'GH#-something' on it.  ;)

We're going to try to get all of the GrogHeads-associated wargamers together one morning before the action gets too cranked up for a big group/family photo.  Not just the staff like last year, but the vendors, staff, family that we dragged along, and gamers that came into town to hang with GrogHeads.   <:-)

In part, it'll be kind of cool to have a giant "family reunion" photo like that, and in part to be able to take it to GAMA and use it to beat them over the head at bit with "look at what we're bringing to the show for you!"   :peace:
