GM Awards for FALL IN!™ 2008

The Historical Miniatures Gaming Society (HMGS) East Chapter is proud to announce the Game Master Awards for FALL IN!™ 2008. The GM Awards program was initiated over 10 ago years to recognize Game Masters for their exceptional convention events and to “encourage others to exemplify the highest qualities of the Historical Miniatures Gaming hobby.”

GM Awardees are all selected by their peers Game Masters. We thank ALL of our dedicated Game Masters for their personal contribution and selfless efforts at FALL IN!™ 2008.
