Gary Con Bound!
I'll be at Gary Con for the first time this year, from Fri at 11 AM until Sun at 4 PM.
The event is being held in the same hotel (now the Grand Geneva) as Gen Con X, almost forty years ago in Aug 1977. This was the year the Holmes Basic set debuted and the first Gen Con that J. Eric Holmes attended. This summer is also Gen Con 50.
I'll wear the above homemade id in addition to my official GC badge. Please say hello.
Here is my schedule of games:
Fri
12-4 Acrid Herald (espionage RPG) scenario with Merle Rasmussen (author of Top Secret)
4-8 "The Last Great Adventure - in 3D" AD&D adventure with Harold Johnson (author of C1 Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan)
9-12 Gen Con 50 celebration at Horticultural Hall, original home of Gen Con
Sat
8-12 Orc's Drift CHAINMAIL game
12-2 Caves of Chaos - Cave G - 5E adaptation of B2
2-4 Dungeon! boardgame with the designer David Megarry
4-6 Auction run by Frank Mentzer
7-12 Battle of the Brown Hills CHAINMAIL written by Gygax, run by Paul Stormberg
Sun
10-12 Dragon Lairds card game with Tom Wham (a Holmes Basic artist!)
12-4 Braunstein IV: Banania with David Wesely
(I signed up late for the con, so I am not scheduled to run any games, though I will bring my Basic Rulebook)

Sorry I missed you, maybe next year!
ReplyDeleteIs there any chance you might entertain us with APs/battle Reports? - I'd be especially curious to know how you fared in the Caves of Chaos, the Braunstein and the 3D (?) AD&D adventure. Pretty please?
ReplyDeleteSure! The first thing I'm working on is a photo gallery of the photos I took, with annotations of course. That will give some info on the games that I took photos of.
