On behalf of EE, I will be running a game at GenCon for up to ten members of the Acaeum (and/or family and significant others); if more than ten are interested (these will take place in the afternoon), I will try to set up two.
This will be a sneak peek at a new product, an official pre-production session. We are working out the fee structure; something to play, more to get a copy of the game for your own. These copies will be made available to non-attendees after the con in a very limited run. Con copies will be signed, numbered and dated; others only signed and numbered, attendees get a discount.
With no booth this year, and no product ready yet, we have to pay for the hotel somehow..........

Hi Frank---
I won't be able to attend the con, but will probably be interested in a copy of the adventures afterward.

I'm There!!!!
RPG’s, D&D in particular has had a major influence in my life. It’s bonded me together with life long friends...it’s that bond in life not just as friends, but in our jokes, our mannerisms, and what we find funny. Invincible Overlord

I count eight so far.
.
Sorry for the late notice,
btw
, and the scheduling for this may be tricky.
Tim can easily keep a standby list if it overflows and then ebbs.
(someone:) Yeah but how many copies? ::grin, topic #1 as usual::
My guess is 50 pricey firsts; might be a little low. Technically this will be the first printed EE product (a prepub) and we've got a lot coming next year. So number and price TBD
(noting that my old prepubs are less than $1,000 @)
.
We'd like to please our fans at DF, Piazza, etc. as well, tho prolly with a different(much later?) edition,
PoD
as usual these days. (My how the industry has changed...)
So here's a Kaskoidalous comestible, with thanks to some collector friends whose enthusiasm and support have been invigorating.

After that miniatures game at NorTex I'd call him Alien... so Alian is a reasonable compromise, don't you think?

The Plan
Seats will be filled in order of answer here.
Ten Spots, with a Stand-By list if we have a no-show or two. This offer is being made to members of The Acaeum.
$10 to play; plus $30 if you want one of the 50 Pre-Pub copies. These will be signed, numbered and dated, and noted as participant in test.
Unable to play but still coming to GenCon? $40 for one of the signed, numbered and dated copies.
If we have any of the 50 left after GenCon, they will be available for $50, signed and numbered.
So, as of this moment the list stands at:
stratochamp
Blackmoor & SaxonAngel
Invincible Overlord
Prufrock
Devon
Shawn
yaya
Bracton
Room for one more; Time and location TBA.
rhynne--it's OK. I love Tim the Sorceror.

I'll be at Gen Con but won't be able to participate in the game. I would like to get on the reserve list for one of the $40 copies if I can please.
Thanks,
Phaedran
