The Treaty combat group is planning to schedule some multi-format events with the other clubs again this season.
The idea is that two clubs simply take turns holding sortie style battles.
We will have some Treaty-only events during the season in order to try out some of our ideas with the scenario, campaign, and theme type battles. But we also want to be able to have get-togethers with our friends in the other clubs in order to enjoy their company, and have fun running, and talking up the boats.
We will probably continue to invite the big-gun groups most often, in order to get that format more active (in our area), again. And we would like to invite the fast-gun groups to some of our events as well. Late in the season, we hope to have at least one event with the Battlestations (96th scale) group.
In the past we have tried to schedule certain groups to specific events, only to have them not show up, when it didn't work out for them.
So with that being said..
This year, what we would like to try is to simply post up-dates to our event schedule as to when, and where our events will be held, and then ask all of the other formats to see if one of them would be able to attend.
So that is the game plan on our end of things.
I am not sure that I can honestly say that I would anticipate any of the other formats being able to invite the Treaty group to their Nats events, although, perhaps it is not out-of-the-question. Perhaps you all can consider inviting us to a spring/fall regionals, or any of the make-up events that you shedule.
Treaty uses NAMBA, but I think that most of the groups also have some sort of one-time insurance form that might be able to deal with any possible insurance issues.
Thanks.
