HMGS® AWARDS AND GAME MASTER RECOGNITION PROGRAM

The HMGS® Academy of Historical Gaming Awards Committee is excited to see our current Game Master (GM) Awards Program go into its second decade of recognizing our best GMs for demonstrating their “A Game!” at our conventions. We encourage all GM’s and HMGS® members to help support the HMGS® GM Awards program.

Game Master Awards presented throughout the year at HMGS® conventions include:

• The “Duke Seifried Game Master of the Year Award”
• Best of Show
• Best of Theme
• Pour Encourager Les Autres (PELA)
• Bob Watts and "Michael Fijalka Young Guard Award" for Best Children's Games

The HMGS® Legion of Honor also supports the Chapter's GM Awards Program through the awarding of Legion Battle Stars to convention games that are deemed to be top caliber and present a level of expertise to which other gamers may emulate. Other awards, both by HMGS® and outside organizations may also surface from time to time as special circumstances dictate.

Specific information regarding the various awards and how winners are determined is presented on the GM Awards Program General Info page.

Visit the GM Awards Archive to see AARs detailing the various GM award winners from each convention dating back to 2010.

And remember, when you put out those figures and terrain, the players and other attendees might not be the only ones watching, so get your "A Game!" on!
