Title: Non-indie at GenCon
Post by: Jake Norwood on April 05, 2003, 01:52:57 PM
Okay, so that non-indie games are you itching to play, particularly at GenCon? I really want to play Adventure! and some superhero game (don't care which, though), and maybe Over the Edge and Unknown Armies. And I want to be a player, not the GM. Any takers?

What you said. Pretty much exactly.

Castle Falkenstein.  

Josh Neff mentioned it here (http://www.indie-rpgs.com/viewtopic.php?p=60128#60128).  For my part, if I can make it to Gen Con (fingers crossed), I hereby officially volunteer to either a) run a session (I have a couple set up that have worked well in the past) or b) play in a session that Josh runs.

Damn, Rich. If you make it to GenCon & run Falkenstein, I have to make it to GenCon to play it.

& If Jake wants to play superheroes, I might whip something up with Mutants & Masterminds that I could run.

I want to play some Wild Talents.  Unknown Armies is great too.

OK, I'm in on the Falkenstien.

Also, I'll be running the superheroes game, damnit, and I'll be using HERO System 5th edition. Characters made on the spot in less than ten minutes, garunteed. Simmy goodness all the way.

UA is a great game for a Con, especially if you can get Stolze to run it. Holy cow can that guy GM.

I'd also like to do some Paranoia with some of yous guys.

All that said, given the number of Indie games present, I expect exactly zero of this all to occur in actuallity. Like given a chance to play TROS with Jake again, I wouldn't choose that. Right. Or Jared's InSpectres game. Just not bloody likely.

Hey, I wanna be in that Castle Falkenstein game, too! I'll be the only one who can pronounce Falkenstein correctly anyway ;-)

Well now, it looks like I'd better make sure to get to Gen Con, with all this interest in a Castle Falkenstein game.  I can't let everybody down now :-)
