The Historical Miniatures Gaming Society-Pacific South West (HMGS-PSW) chapter is a nonprofit group whose main purpose is to promote learning about history by playing with toy soldiers. We focus mainly on military history but other periods such as the “Old West” and even "Sci Fi" type games are also played and enjoyed by members. Our group includes many gaming clubs as well as individuals. We hold two conventions a year, The "Spring Campaign" and the "Fall Campaign", plus other events. Our territory covers Southern California from South of the San Francisco Bay area to the Mexico border, to all of Arizona and Nevada. Membership in HMGS/PSW is an investment in the future of gaming for us all! Are you in our area? We would love to have you as a member. Membership includes admission to two conventions per year as well as helps to support our promoting of the hobby. Membership forms in both .Doc and .PDF from can be found in the "files" section here once you "join" the "Yahoo" group.
