MINIATURE GAMES
 

PGX is a great place to showcase the many diverse miniature games in the hobby. PGX has hosted events for all sorts including Warhammer (Age of Sigmar, 40K, Kill Team, etc), Warmachine, Infinity, Star Wars X-Wing, Star Wars Legion, Gaslands & more!



GAME: Gaslands
ORGANIZER: Chad Boudreau
TIME: 1:00pm - 5:00pm
DURATION: 120 minutes per race
PLAYERS: 5 players max. per race
DETAILS: Gaslands is a tabletop miniatures wargame of car-on-car destruction in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Miniatures are Hot Wheels / Matchbox cars modified to look like post-apocalyptic machines of speed and destruction. Players will use one of several customized vehicles designed by Chad and his family. These vehicles will race across a post-apocalyptic wasteland populated with terrain crafted by Chad and his family. Players will learn as they play and each game will end after 120 minutes (approx.) with the winner being the player whose vehicle is closest to the final gate. (It is possible for games to finish in less than 120 minutes.)

Other players of Gaslands are invited to come to Prairie Game Expo, as well, to show off their builds and race against other players. There will be two tables available for Gaslands.

Star Wars: Legion - Operation Silent Hail
ORGANIZER: Shawn Morris / Chad Boudreau
TIME: 10:00am - 6:00pm
DURATION: each player will play 4 games
PLAYERS: 2 players per game
DETAILS: Star Wars: Legion invites you to enter the ground battles of the Galactic Civil War as the commander of a unique army of miniatures filled with troopers, powerful ground or repulsor vehicles, and iconic characters like Darth Vader or Luke Skywalker. While innovative mechanics for command and control simulate the fog of war and the chaos of battle, the game's unpainted, easily assembled minis give you a canvas to create the Star Wars army you've always wanted to lead into battle — whether you fight for the monolithic, oppressive Galactic Empire or the ragtag Rebel Alliance.

Operation Silent Hail is a Strategic event that allows players to create a story across connected games
over the course of the event. Players play 1v1 against the same opponent for all four games of
a thematic event. Each game is connected, with the results of a game carrying over and creating
consequences in future games.
