It is time to get things rolling for the 2013 Gen Con OSR booth. We are less than 90 days away from the convention. The OSR booth will be hosted by Pacesetter Games & Simulations and Center Stage Miniatures.

This year we doubled our space and went to a 20 x 10 booth!

If you would like more information on joining us at the Gen Con OSR booth, please send me an email immediately. Space is limited.

Lastly, we will have some demos and live gaming at the booth. This will be limited, but we plan on at least one such event each day. And like last year, we will have a large white board available for the OSR crowd to communicate and post notes, meetings, open game events, etc. We want to make the OSR booth THE place to be for OSR gamers at Gen Con!

Don't delay. Get that email to me at bbarsh@pacesettergames.com

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

As for the "full dispaly" I will be working the booth wearing nothing but a G-string with the British flag on it. (Just for you!)

Wow Martin, you certainly don't let the grass grow - I have only JUST filed for divorce!

Alas, I won't be at Gencon this year, but I will expect photos

Karen,
My apologies. I was going for the laugh not to stake a claim so to speak. That would be inappropriate as your status is still married. Very sorry.

Whew!! Thanks for letting me off the hook. Thought I had created an international incident.

However Karen, I'm sure pictures will be provided. :oops:

I wish I could be there to:

1) See all these shiny OSR thingies! (I'm running my son and nephew through an LBB game!)

2) Watch Karen and Martin. (I'm a sucker for romance, especially the online variety, which is the most genuine of all

)

I've never been to GenCon.
Heck, I can't even make it to a Doctor Who Con, and it's right here in Huntsville today!

I love the Old-School Renaissance ... here's wishing you much success!

Last call for publishers to be a part of the OSR booth. Absolute deadline is July 18. The list so far:
Black Blade Publishing
Faster Monkey Games
BRW Games
Eldritch Enterprises
Die Cast Games
Henchmen Abuse
Expeditious Retreat Press (XRP)
Judges Guild/Bernhardt Publishing
Pacesetter Games & Simulations
Center Stage Miniatures

A new twist at the booth this year will be the opportunity for players to spend an hour or so in a demo. Each day, the OSR booth will host one or two demos of current OSR products. There will be a sign up sheet at the convention and on-line. Demos will be held Friday and Saturday.

We will also have Celebrity sessions where some OSR luminaries will be available to meet and greet and sign products. This complete schedule will be posted at the booth and on-line.

As last year, I will have a white board for use by the OSR community to leave messages, list events, etc.

Edit: Added XRP

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!
