US - Boston, MA: Arisia 2016

[Joshua A.C. Newman]

I'll be attending the Arisia SF convention this coming weekend! I'd LOVE to pass off some demo-running responsibilities to some enthusiastic MoFØs, though! If you're going to be around, there are a good number of players, and if nothing else, I'd love to see you MoFØs get together and play some games in the demo space.

You can get me best by emailing joshua at glyphpress. I hope to see you there!

By chance I will be in the area on Saturday and would be interested. I'll find out if the schedule will allow.

Awesome! It looks like I'm slotted into the extremely inconvenient 10 PM slot! Definitely come by my booth in the Indie Expo and introduce yourself! I have a hard time keeping names, handles, and faces all lined up!

I'd love to see any frames you've got, too! Bring 'em and throw down! It looks like there will be at least one more MoFØ there, and there's usually a cluster more who aren't on the forums.

I'd love to have you! I've already promised one person admission and the budget is super tight on this con, so only come if you're comfortable! Looks like there will be enough for a biggish throwdown, though!

Sunday, I have the 10:00 slot, too, but that's smack in the middle of party time. If I get anyone, I suspect I'll wind up playing The Name of Bronze (my new Sword & Sorcery RPG).

Sorry we missed you, MK. Joshua and I had a nice time demoing for about 10 and of course there were other onlookers. I'll get some photos up in the next day or so.

Click through for a few more photos of the evening.

Despite the terrible time slot in an out-of-the-way room, we had pretty good interest. Joshua did a rough intro while we set up, and then we broke into groups and Joshua and I each ran a separate game. We only had the one large table so the felt was helpful in designating the space. As far as I could tell, everyone who sat down to play had a good time. My players had to head out sooner than those at the other table so I captured these few photos (in that terrible light) at the end.

We mostly used my frames and Joshua's terrain. Frames were at a premium, so if you look closely you can find a few Trundleball frames that got drafted into service.
