GenCon 2006
Here are the highlights of my GenCon 2006 experience. Enjoy!
Me with Steve Long, owner and most prolific author of Hero Games, and winner of a Silver ENnie for the tour de force that is Pulp Hero. Congratulations, Steve!
Here's us playing the Ravens - a Hero System based game of paranormal investigators. I got to play Samuel L. Jackson with a split personality! GM and son on the right in black.
The GM screen for the NASCRAG (National Society of Crazed Gamers) tournament, or, as Fab called it, NASCRAP. At least I learned two valuable lessons. (1) Tournaments suck, because GMs are supposed to entertain their players, not the other way around, and (2) Humor must be inherent to a genre. A tabloid game where time-travelling witches imprison Dave Chapelle? Funny. A D&D game with a stoned Keanu Reeves and a Jewish mother? Lame.
Diceless GM of "Dark Reflection of Consequences." The story needed more action, but at least I got to play a millionaire.
GM for Hero System based Toon Hero game. I got to play American Spider, spray webs on Fab's Shaolin Shark, and defenestrate a Program Director. Sweet.
Beatrice Kiddo from Kill Bill
Leia and entourage.
Fab GMing the finest game of Pandemonium in human history. Maybe the best six-hours of role-playing in human history. MAA!
First Annual MAACon, convention of our Mutual Admiration Society.
The McCoy family plays the d20 Modern scenario "Dueling Banjos." Long story short: we're a family of gun-toting rednecks trying to keep one of our women-folk from running off with a Hatfield. I could easily have been the worst role-player at the table, and I was pretty good.
