GenCon 2015 Review Day 4

Click here for Day 0 and 1, Day 2, Day 3. I know that a lot of people don’t do much on Sunday but recover and take one more trip through the show floor, but I hate to leave GenCon without feeling like I’ve done everything I can. This year that meant volunteering to run […]

GenCon 2015 Review Day 3

Click here for Day 0 and 1, Day 2. Ran the last of my own games at 8AM, Dungeons Incorporated. And once again started with just one player but rapidly filled seats with real tickets and a couple of folks from my Friday 8AM game (back for more you silly people)! And also once again I […]

GenCon 2015 Review Day 2

For my Day 0 and 1 review see Here. Friday was another day full of GMing. First up at 8AM was Savage Worlds, Rise of the New Gods again. Didn’t start well with only one player showing up. However, as all things GenCon, I was rescued by a group with generic tickets. They were actually […]

GenCon 2015 Review Day 0 and 1

This year was another good GenCon. I ran a lot of games – a lot of games. Arriving on Wednesday afternoon, had some time to wander and see what was new and what had moved. New Restaurant this year is Tavern on South. Excellent food, service and beer selection. At least on Wed it had […]

Graphing Inspiration

I’ve talked before about using maps for inspiration. For the Dungeon Incorporated game I need two sets of maps. PC maps from the completed dungeon and what has happened since. The PCs will start with the before map, and then can use it to navigate whatever has changed in the dungeon. The biggest issue here […]

Cleric Domains – 5e – Stone

Short post today. As I was making characters for my upcoming GenCon game, I needed a custom Cleric domain – Stone. The group builds dungeons, and a dwarven cleric of Stone seemed appropriate. This one is only done up to 6th level (the level of the PCs in the game), so I have not added […]

Dungeon Inc. PC Descriptions

Ongoing effort to complete the PCs for the Dungeon Incorporated game. I’ve completed the descriptions but only have about two thirds of the Character sheets done. The descriptions are all the non-crunchy bits for a character – the fluff. Character Descriptions Other GenCon note. All the Party of One (PoO) games are sold out – […]

GenCon 2015 Registration

I suspect (hope!) that folks are checking out the site because GenCon registration is right around the corner. I am running two games (2 times each). Dungeons Incorporated (RPG1570856 & RPG1570857) Rise of the New Gods (RPG1568996 & RPG1570309) Look for the GenCon tag to see information in previous posts. More posted as it’s created. […]

Drawing Dungeons for Con Games

I’ve started the process of drawing the dungeon for my GenCon game. In this case, it will be a little more complex that normal because of the evolution of the dungeon. Premise. You (the PCs) are part of a company that makes dungeons for BBEGs. You are now being called back to a dungeon to […]

What Happens When the BBEG Shows Up

Still working on my GenCon game – Dungeons Incorporated. Next up are the Bad Guys. The PCs are just about done so it’s time to start thinking about the Bad Guys. When I first put together the idea for a Con game, the basics of the plot are there, but I expect them to change. […]
