Looking Back - Consim Dallas 2020

For us 2020 held two distinct parts and yeah you guessed it. The separation falls pre March 15 and Post March 15. 2020 started off like most years. After the holidays we gathered every few weeks to play a few games and share some laughs. A few standout were the usual Zombicide, Warfighter, and a new fun game called Horrified. 

Consim Dallas March 5-8 

We attended the first ever Consim Dallas and even though it was local to us we stayed at the con hotel which allowed us to enjoy tons of gaming, laughs, and tasty food. Only rarely did chatter move to the virus that was taking hold of the world. 

Played a Flying Circus tournament where we flew one battle for each year of the war using only planes from that year. 

We really enjoyed Battle Ravens. The national cards added cool flavor. 

Old school Zombies!!! 

Borg’s Tricorne Battle of Bunker Hill. This has become our favorite Command and Colors game. 

WWE Dice Masters. We played this for several hours and let’s just say Rick Flair is a beast!

Rise of the Zombies. The birth of the Warfighter engine. 

Savage Wilderness was great. We played several battles. Each battle had its own map and the game is fast and easy but has enough flavor to satisfy. 

Platoon Commander. We played a USA and Germans versus the Soviets expansion which came in the Deluxe Kursk. 

We played a single elimination tournament of Maneuver. 

Amazingly tasty Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Jalapeños! 

Watched a few monster games being played. 

We also played Panzer General Korea, Golf Dice, and joined a friend in a great three player game of Quartermaster General Cold War in which all three faction finished within 3 points. 

Conclusion 

The gaming we did at Consim Dallas was truly epic. We would definitely go again if it happens in the future. The flea market and small dealers room was gravy.
