It's for historical and a smattering of non-historical games. We've packed the house each year we've run it, expanded the space, packed it over and over. We've got games on waiting lists. don't know what would make one think because vendors don't choose to attend one could extrapolate the hobby is dying. That's a stretch. Later...gotta' go paint!
