History Through Simulation: 3D Miniature Strategy Games

Experience history like never before through immersive tabletop strategy games and guided simulations. Led by HMGS Next Gen facilitators, students step into real historical scenarios, make strategic decisions, and work together to solve challenges on detailed miniature battlefields. On Monday, put yourself in the shoes of Julius Caesar, and fight a battle during the Roman Empire. On Tuesday, become a Viking warrior and raid England looking for plunder and glory. On Wednesday, storm a medieval castle, but watch out for boiling oil! On Thursday, battle in the trenches of World War I while biplanes fight each other in the skies above. Finally, on Friday, experience a tank battle of World War II and the Battle of the Bulge. This is gaming like you have never seen before! Along the way, campers build leadership, teamwork, and critical-thinking skills while exploring the art and creativity behind game design. No prior gaming experience needed—just imagination and curiosity.
