OH = Open House. a palladium event that is basically a convention.. fans get to spend a weekend at the palladium books warehouse and offices, hobnob with the staff, run and play games, get sneak peeks at upcoming products, etc.

next one is in 2015, IIRC. used to be done every year, but the recent company move and some issues with costs made them postpone them.

and since i hopefully will be present, i think i would love to do a megabattle. of course, i bet Carmen or one of the freelancers who usually does megabattles probably has one already planned.

I think I'll wait til 2015 to decide if I'm actually gonna do this. Then we'll have a better idea of what would be involved and how much effort if will be to travel with it all. I doubt I would bring everything I purchased as that is over 360+ game pieces.

I will hopefully have a playmat and terrain for an ARMD space platform if I can work out the time to build it. That is the most difficult part whne combined with my real world job, my (now mobile) baby and writing for you clowns.

That mobile baby not only is a time sink, you'll be storing anything of value, and unless your platform is gonna be indestructible it'll have to be hidden far away from that child until they are like 10. I'm already buying storage bins for my buildings and I'm hoping the Battle System terrain is easily collapsible and portable. I'd bring that to the Open House maybe to run a Zentradi Ship game. My kids regularly raid my Star Wars guys even though they have tons of their own. In all fairness my ships are much bigger and more detailed. Darn brats...stop breakin the seats out of my Nubian Royal Starship.

At least with us talking about it now, we can plan it better.

Cool, that would be a big help.
