The Historical Miniatures Games Society-Pacific Southwest is a nonprofit organization, whose goal is to teach history using miniatures and games. As part of a nationwide organization, we cover the Pacific Southwest: Southern California, Arizona, Hawaii, and the Las Vegas region of Nevada. Currently we have around 150 members spread throughout these states.
Through membership, locally organized conventions, and an informative site, we strive to give a different method of learning history. If you are interested in joining or need some help with an event, then let us know. Above are links on the information needed.
