Packed To The Heavens With Gaming Goodness

10 Comments

Honestly, the crowds here, whilst massive, are actually pretty good about letting you through and navigating. Well, we say that now but as it stands Saturday is JUST kicking off and things might get more hectic as the hours pass by.

The show floor really is abuzz with energy and people checking out games they know and love, and ones they've only just heard of.

The Miniatures Of Legend Of Korra By IDW

11 Comments

We talked with IDW yesterday about Legend Of Korra and thought we'd drop back in just to show off some of the miniatures for the game.

Make sure to check out the Day Two Live Blog to find the video where we talk about this game based in the Airbender universe.

Huge Showing For Pathfinder & Starfinder

7 Comments

There are some folks that come to Gen Con to get their RPG on from sunrise to sundown. The Pathfinder hall is the perfect example. The tables are full of adventuring parties hard at work.

It's awesome to see so much imagination at work among all the shiny temptations at the con.

Painting Away In The Peace & Quiet

9 Comments

Set further back from the main hall the folks at Gen Con have a painting area where you can sit and paint up miniatures, join in with challenges and generally maybe take a break from it all for a bit.

There are a few nice pieces on display here too and with that in mind we're going to come back tomorrow and see what appears in the cabinets.

Any chance of seeing the guys and gals of Flying Frog Productions to find out how things are moving on with all the Shadows of Brimstone stuff (especially delivery to us here in the U.K.)

Wasn’t there going to be coverage of the Corvus Belli seminar?

Well done for keeping up the enthusiasm, looks like a great con to be at, but exhausting at the same time.
Love to see some indie games from companies that we might never have heard of.

The end of day video just goes to show how awesome Dawn and Gianna are as they normally have to cover the event on their own. Great job everyone, looking forward to today’s installment.
