Teetering on the edge of a new,
start-now, well-paying political job (i.e. demanding AF) I get one
last reprieve of gainful unemployment this weekend: North Texas RPG
Con.
The sinister heads of the Hydra
Cooperative will all be there for our annual face-to-face planning
and bull session and of course there will be the usual marathon
gaming, corridor discussions, buying sprees, and grogging out with
the grumblers. I'm personally jazzed about getting in some games with
Merle Rasmussen and his new iteration of Top Secret.
Expect tall tales to be spun.
A list of Hydra things going on:
The Table. As usual we will have
a lit table. Also as usual the spot will be as much as an ongoing
hangout spot as it is a place to pick up product (or more). We are a
friendly crew (mostly) and enjoy seeing fellow malcontents from the
internet and readers, so please stop by. Also we will have some new
and con exclusive product out.
What Ho, Frog Demons. I will be
running a playtest of this still-not-done beast Friday at 6pm. Due to
a screw-up the con registration has me down for only four seats
though I really am more than fine running double that. So if you want
to play in the absurd, kitchen-sink that is the Hill Cantons drop by
the Hydra table and I will give you an Electrum Ticket for the game.
Mortzengersturm. Trey
Causey will be running his Ozian whimsical newly-released adventure
Saturday at 1pm. The adventure has been played the shit out of and
seems to bring the fun each time so make sure to check it out.
Paranoia. Humza
K is going to be running Paranoia Friday at 1 pm. Humza has some
published work with the game and runs a mean anarchic session.
Operation Unfathomable. Jason
Sholtis will be running Sephilax Must Be Destroyed on
Thursday at 6:00 pm set in the Odious Uplands, the wilderness stretch
goal from the Op U. Totally prejudiced as an editor of that
supplement, but it's a very typically weird and wonderful adventure
area from Jason.
