[QUOTE="Treebore, post: 4895558, member: 10177"] I got to play Aces and Eights for the second time, this time trying out the chase rules using a deck of cards to show ranges and to determine obstacles. I have definitely found a Western to love, for the first time in nearly 25 years of gaming. Plus I got to play in the first official Gen Con Tournament games for C&C, had a great CK and great group and a fantastic time! Probably my best 6 hours of Gen Con. Got to play 1E for the first time in a while, with "Taco john" John Hershberger running! Just once again proved to me edition wars are a bunch of nonsense, all of them are fun! For the first time I participated in the ENnies silent auction and had two fantastic bargain wins! I got the full Shadowrun 4E set, including 20th anniversary core book, for $100, and I had none of the books, I only have the original 4E core book and all my old 1E/2E stuff, so I am now up to date on EVERYTHING! I also won the Star Wars SAGA rule books set for $75, and my son has been voraciously reading through them to get ready to run his Star Wars game he has been thinking on for over a year because I hadn't gotten the books for him yet. So now that is fixed. Plus I met a lot of new people for the first time, some from ENWorld, but most from the Castles and Crusades boards, and some who are fans, but never posted to the boards. Plus I met a half dozen or so Necromancer board members for the first time since Gen Con 2006. So it was a great Gen Con and there needs to be more time to do even more gaming and having fun. They need to make Gen Con run a full 9 days! From a Saturday to a Sunday! Maybe then my kids and I will feel ready to go home. [/QUOTE]
