Title: [AmberCon NW 2005] Playing Indie Games at ACNW
Post by: Pôl Jackson on September 01, 2005, 04:41:54 PM
I'm going to [http://www.amberconnw.org/]AmberCon NW 2005[/http://www.amberconnw.org/] this November. Two thoughts:

1.) Any other Forgeites (Forgers? Forgies? Forgettes?) coming to ACNW this year? Let me know! I'd love to hook up and play some indie games, either on or off the schedule.

2.) I'm going to submit a game of Dogs in the Vineyard to run at the Con. Simone (the organizer) seems to be OK with non-Amber games, but she would like to see a little blurb in the game description about how the game fits with ACNW. I'm coming up blank, though. How is DiTV like the ADRPG? Any suggestions? Even a vague similarity would do.

I'll be there, as will Lee Short (http://www.indie-rpgs.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=763).  I'm not sure what I'll be running yet, though.  It will be set in Amber but will probably use a different rules set.  Everway ("Amberway") seems a popular choice, but I might try something more modern. I'll probably be wanting to try games other than Dogs at that point, but I'll certainly be up for some Forge-related games.
