We stopped in at the Gen Con Museum in the Lucas Oil Stadium to have a look through some of the exhibits which have been showing off how the show has changed over the last half a decade.
It has been utterly awesome seeing some of the old D&D manuals and more that have come to life and the move towards board and miniatures games over the years.
There’s two reasons I’d want to be at this GenCon in particular. One is the L5R launch, this is the other one.
Does the Johnson boss know what Bena and Dawn are doing?
Hehe the Red Box and the Blue Box! 🙂
That would be the first English edition of Settlers. ( https://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgameversion/20630/english-first-edition-1996 )
The German version would be the ‘true’ first edition 😉
(ok Google makes this easy, but I’m sure Az would have known this too )
Red box D&D … I think I had the Dutch version (that and ‘Das Schwarze Auge’ are the only RPG’s I know tha were translated into Dutch).
I’ve got the German box which came with some translated instructions which someone had printed on a laser printer, not sure it helped that all the cards were in German too.
What is that cool looking ogre type thing behind you?
I think its a mock up of what Warren used to look like before he met Andrea and she helped him sort his life out.
Good to see the history of it all represented!
Thats really cool they did that.
Awesome statue.
So glad someone archived the history. Hope this is never lost and maybe some day gets a permanent home.
Red box D&D!!!
Always wonder to pick first edition D&D manuals but I started to play when Ad&D, so I’m more on advanced material.
Btw great looking.
Thats so awsome, so many awesome games over the years.
SO much history in a single spot.
I kept waiting for that thing to start moving
Just love the fact that they took the time to do this, it must have been a real trip through history.
50 years of GenCon!!!
So awesome, I know I’ve been gaming with some of my friends for 30 years now, since we were kids, its great to see all the nostalgia.
I would have loved to see this… really wish I could have went. :'(
This is the sort of thing I would love to go see.
I would like to have seen all of this.
That is very cool
