Our very highly respected Propaganda Enforcement and Needful Information Secretary has emerged victorious from the deepest depths of the Bolters at Dawn media laboratory (definitely not a dungeon). Behold the official BOLTERCON 2024 event shirt and the VIP exclusive shirt.

Time Flies: 2024 Rolls Along & We Roll With It

Thinking about the past four years of hosting an event in November, we as Bolters at Dawn staff, club members, and community have come such a long way. Being nervous about hosting our first ever event, a 16 player Warhammer 40k event, to being excited (and mostly prepared) about running a 50 player 40k event alongside a 24 player Age of Sigmar event here in 2024! It’s a lot on our glorious Staff to drive things, but the true champions are our club members who follow their lead (and blaze your own paths)!

Without further ado, let’s get into the meat (no harmed animals except Albert) of what we have planned, where you can learn more, and how you can drive the dopest tabletop convention in Cincinnati (aka BOLTERCON) to even doper heights.

Florida Attacks! Recap
Florida Man Actual

We had Kenny Boucher deliver his world reknown Next Level Painting 101 class in the esteemed Bolters at Dawn clubhouse. An event for club members only, this invasion from Florida was an absolutely great time and hobby-mind expanding experience. Check out the deets on our blog!
