Pingback: Your game at Gen Con? « The Stockade
With my Stockade game I’ve gotten it to the stage where I decided not to go ahead with it. It had turned into a card game, and that’s not really my bag…too much art! 8)
I have, however, had three roleplaying supplements commercially published since GenCon 2009 (Realms of Power: Faerie, Magi of Hermes and Tales of Mythic Europe) and likely another two will be out be Con (Lords of Men certainly, and Rival Magic with a bit of luck.). So, it’s been a fruitful year, even if Concierge, my Stockade game, didn’t make it to ashcan.
I’m keen to throw around ideas again this year.
If it’s out in time, I’d really like to run “Princes of Gossamer and Shadow”, if its indie enough. I mean, it’s an ADRPG supplement, so it’s got indie roots…
It is great that we already have some many keen GM’s with a huge range of games to play. And I am totally stoked to see Scott Vandervalk’s name on the GM roster. Awesome!
