Post Con

MEPACON was a great little convention. There was not much in the way of vendors. A couple local game stores, the con itself, an author, a custom mini painter, and a table for a RPG friendly summer camp. But, what this con did have was fun! The attendees and con staff were warm, friendly folk who genuinely loved to see our new faces, and the faces of our four kids. There were several other young gamers there, and the kids   all had a great time with their new friends. By the end of the first day, Christine and I agreed that it was a convention worth attending.

I didn't self-promote much at all while I was there. Focusing instead on playing games and talking with the other attendees. We purchased Lords of Waterdeep, and Small World Underground. I really wanted a copy of Castle Panic, but there were no copies available. It felt good to buy a couple big games from a small store at a local convention, rather than waiting until GenCon or Origins.

I did manage to finish all the artwork for my demo copy of Some Assembly Required. I located some generic bot minis, and an nice grid map to use. Now all I need to do is get that playtest group together.
