Having finally finished up my Gen Con 50 reports, I jumped back into prepping some miniatures. I started with a Knight Model for the Batman Miniature Game.

The last day of the Con was here and my big Loopin’ Chewie Tournament was in the morning. I say “big” because it had apparently sold out all 36 slots. Last year I had four people show up so this was going to be interesting.

Just like Friday, my friend and I cleared Saturday morning to run over to the Mythic Games booth and try out the other scenario. This scenario is supposed to show the games non-fantasy options and be less narrative and focused more on strategy.
So after Gen Con, I thought I’d have more time but sadly, that didn’t happen as I had another trip planned- a belated anniversary trip to Scotland.
Scotland was sufficiently moody and fantastic but very light on gaming.
As I said in my Day 1 report, seeing the Time of Legends: Joan of Arc display case had me ditching events to check it out in the dealer hall. My friend and I lined up at the appropriate entrance and bee-lined to the Mythic Games booth to sit down for a demo as soon as the hall opened.
It’s been a while since I’ve done a Walking Dead Wednesday but I did seek out Mantic to see what things were coming up from this great minis game.
Thursday opened the Con with its typical crush of attendees all vying for position at the main entrances.
At Gen Con 50, we were able to talk to the Hawk team and get a rough idea of the major changes coming to Dropzone 2.0. These rules are still in beta so may change and are mainly from my notes so I may have missed or misinterpreted them:
So we’re in the Indy Airport, Granite City and Gen Con is over. I was obviously way too busy to keep up with the blog but I have a lot of notes ready and will try to get them out in the next week or so.
It was a spectacular Con and I’m excited to work on my events for next year.
With a lot of the drudgery of travel out of the way, I was able to get my badge and event tickets in record time. Even though the line was about 300 people deep, the extra support staff hired for the event this year got us through the will-call line in about 20 minutes.
