About this event

Join us for an evening of fun as we look at History Through Different Lens with

The Great Turkey Hunt! Your Orders: Bring Back Dinner!

Five soldiers. Dense woods. One turkey needed for the officers’ table.

What could possibly go wrong?

Join the Big Muddy Historical Gaming Alliance – St. Louis for The Great Turkey Hunt , a lighthearted French and Indian War–era tabletop adventure.

Your section has been ordered into the woods above the St. Lawrence River to find dinner—but turkeys aren’t the only creatures hiding in the undergrowth.

Can your soldiers bring home a turkey—or will they be reporting for fatigue duty?

Stop by the table, join in the action, and explore the history behind the adventure. This historically themed scenario offers a playful starting point for conversations about life, food, and making decisions with incomplete information.

The Great Turkey Hunt is an historically themed table top miniatures game scenario of the French and Indian Wars presented using 28mm miniatures and the “One Hour Skirmish Wargame Rules” game system for 2-6 players with an estimated play time of 2 hours including introduction and discussion.
