GalactiCon in Valparaiso, IN

Unread post by Phaze »

I will be running some Robotech RPG Tactics at the Con on October 18th in Valparaiso, Indiana.

Go to http://www.galacticgregs.com for details.

4 Demo quick demo games - 1-2 hours each.

Game times to be anounced soon.

If there is another MA out there that can run a Rifts, HU, or other Palladium game at the con let me know, I will try to get another table.

Thanks

That looks doable for me.

I know you posted the link, but can you tell us a bit about this Con, assuming you ever attended it before?

This ia a small con sponsored by Galactic Gregs in Valparaiso, IN.

It will be held fro 9AM to 9PM on October 18th at the Butterfield Pavilion.

I was there last year and ran some tactics with paper minis and a demo set of rules. We had a good reception, and even ran into a couple of MAs. They run alot of CCGs and Heroclix. Also the area has a decent size RPG crowd and a group of W40K players that love to hate on GW...lol. It is near Valparaiso University so it gets a good college following, along with a large number of the older gamers...like me.

Should be a good time!

I reserved a 10' X 15' space. Another Robotech Fanatic and I are planning on running 6 (yes... six) 2 hour demos. If our Kickstarter boxes don't arrive we will resort to paper minis. In the early afternoon I want to have a showing of Rifts (or any other Palladium system) as well.

This isn't written in stone yet, and I would glady sacrifice a couple of Tactics games if I had another MA that wanted to run something. The spot is payed for so there would not be any cost to the MA.

Sign up at 9 am...first come first served

Preliminary Game times are as follows:

Table 1

10am - 12pm Robotech RPG Tactics (City fight)
1pm - 3pm Robotech RPG Tactics (City fight)
3pm - 5pm Robotech RPG Tactics (City fight)
6pm - 8pm Robotech RPG Tactics (Space Battle)

Table 2

10am - 12pm Robotech RPG Tactics (Mars Base)
1pm - 4pm Heros Unlimited RPG
6pm - 8pm Robotech RPG Tactics (Mars Base)

Edit reflecting latest update.

Sorry to double post... Just got confirmation

They have a 10 X 15 area set aside for me along with two tables and chairs. They will also post an image on thier web site to advertise.

This is what I came up with to send them, but I am going to hold off until I can get someone to run a Rifts game... Come on MAs...You know you wanna. :-D I would love to have a united Palladium front in this area.

You would not need to give away product of your own stock. Being a MA means that you would have Palladium's help on rewarding your players and GM's for the effort that they put out to contribute to the expansion of the word of a great game system.

I would have to take a look, Valpo is about 4 hours away, but being a Thursday could present....issues. If I can make it, I will run a Rifts game. NOTE: my standpoint of a "beginner game" Includes basic Character rolling. SO if I can run, Factor in about 1 hour for basics.
