Gear up for GENCON!

Unread post by Phaze »

This is a shot across the bow!

GENCON event submission starts in just a few days!

NMI and I are coordinating all of the events for the MAs.

Last year Palladium had its largest event list EVER by a Factor of 2! We went from a fill rate of 70 to 90% and hosted more than twice the number of events! It was awesome!

This year we want MORE! Get your creative juices flowing and your adventures written!

Within the week I will post contact information and required information for any events you would like to hold. We will be submitting these events through Palladium as a combined effort to maximize our exposure.

We are working on good exposure for both RPGs and Miniatures, but this will take some coordination and discussion with GENCON to get this done for both our benefits.

I will keep you posted.

GET YOUR GAME ON! GENCON 2015. SEE YOU THERE!

For those not of the Megaversal Ambassador program (such as yours truly) that still want to run Palladium games, can we still sign up here and receive the instructions?

Absolutely, though for ease of getting information and other news, benefits and such, I strongly suggest you sign-up as an M.A.

I will be posting a topic with information shortly and it will be stickied at the top of this forum.

Last year I ran four Chaos Earth games, with different
set ups. One being a combination Chaos Earth / Dead Reign
And one being Chaos Earth / Minion Wars. I had a lot of positive
feed back for both Chaos Earth and Dead Reign.

I have ran games almost every year since GenCon hit Indianapolis.
Previous years I have ran Rifts, Fantasy, and Ninja Turtles.

I also have experience running large scale Battletech Free for Alls in the past.
So I would be happy to run Tactics games, not just RPGS if needed.

As it stands I have Rifts, Chaos Earth, Dead Reign and the Robotech RPG
games ready to run. But if there is something different we would like to see get some
attention please let me know, I can run any of the games, even slightly neglected ones
like Supernatural or Splicers, heck I will run "Recon" if we want to see it. hehehe
Anyway, I will hold off sending my game submissions for the time being,
just in case we have any requests.

Last year we were a bit light on Palladium Fantasy games but other than that, run whatever will make you happy to run.

Sadly, I'm not going to be able to make it this year.
Last year was my first running Rifts at GenCon and I had a blast! It was great talking with all the other fans of the Megaverse.
It was my first year with an official GameMaster badge too. All my friends were awestruck with my awesomeness ;-)
I really wish I could go again this year.

Good Luck this year!
Fingers crossed i can come out next year!

I'd sign up for a Fantasy Game... if I could make it.

Keep up the good work gentlemen, and ladies, if there are any ladies.

dexterward here. I had such a blast running games last year that I have signed up to run 4 more this year. All of them are for Beyond the Supernatural Second Edition.

The 4 games I am writing are all loosely connected. It centers on a group of paranormal investigators from Reading, Pennsylvania (a real place). The group travels to Japan seeking answers to numerous supernatural mysteries. These are the same pre-gen characters I used last GenCon. All of the adventures I am writing are based on true bizarre accounts from that magnificent country. The adventures are;

Dark Waters - Something lurks in the Fujigoko lakes near Mt. Fuji Japan. Many of the lake’s fisherman have gone missing, and the locals claim to see dark shapes just under the surface. Can a group of paranormal investigators discover the reason behind the missing fisherman, or will they become bait for some hungry lake creature?

Forest of the Damned - Aokigahara forest near Mt. Fuji Japan is noted for its high level of suicides each year. Is the forest a magnet for Tokyo’s depressed or are there sinister paranormal implications? Can a group of paranormal investigators discover the secret behind “The Forest of the Damned”, or will they become another death statistic?

Specters from the Past - The world is full of forgotten places. These places, abandoned for one reason or another are overlooked by the world at large. Many are claimed to be haunted by specters from the past. Hashima a small city/island off the shore of Japan’s Nagasaki Prefecture is one such place. Can a group of stranded paranormal investigators survive the night in the ghost city of Hashima?

The Haunted Doll of Hokkaido - Can dolls be cursed? A group of paranormal investigators travels to Japan to help the priests of Mannenji temple determine if the Okiku doll is cursed or just a sick practical joke.

So what is everyone planning or running this time around - I am curious?

9 GM's
28 games
A few individuals are running less than 4 games so that may or may not affect #'s of free GM Badges.
