Yes, and it's a lot like the Warhammer Fantasy RPG, the handout was a demo adventure with pre-gens. I can't wait for February 2008 to get here. The handout is in B&W and is about 6" x 4" or the size of a kitchen appliance instruction manual (at least the ones we've bought recently)
I geeked out over the Dilbert board game ('cause I love Dilbert and work in an office cubible)
I loved they put WOTC back in the corner, if you've ever been to Gencon: Indy the exhibit hall was about twice as big and had twice as many people in there. The WOTC booth is a huge speed bumo in the middle of the hall, so I was happy to see that obsticle removed.
The art show was in the middle of the hall, gauranteeing people woul dbe walking by (shrewd idea!) it was the busiest I ever remember that area being
Wiz Kids must be making a killing with the Fin Fang Foom dragon, we saw tons to the light green boxes in people's clear plastic bags after having purchased them from Wiz Kids.
There were news crews outside and inside the convention center, I'm sure we got represented all over the local news yesterday.
They clamped down on people getting multiple con swag bags, you had to present your badge and they marked it with a Sharpie to ensure you didn't come back and get another bag.
The lines seemed to be moving well, it was really long at 10:00am but by 1:00 the line was no longer outside and wrapped around the building (and they brought coolers of water for those who had to stand out there, kudos to the gencon staff)

I really wish I knew someone that was going so I could've given them money for the new Talisman game.
Anybody pick it up?

Another plea for "what else is going on?" information!
