Title: The Long Con...
Post by: Uncle Mike on January 13, 2011, 02:21:16 PM: Thought it might be a good idea to let everyone know about any conventions we will be attending this year...so, here goes...

Myth-A-Con (Jan. 14-16) Calgary Marlbrough Community Centre.

Cthulhupalooza (Feb. 18) Vancouver...not sure on the location

And a few more in the works...hope to see our Canadian contingent of gamers!
I'll post more as I know the details...

Any info on what films will be shown at Chulhupalooza?

EDIT:

That road trip took a little while longer than anticipated...the engine in my car blew up and young Cam and myself were stuck in Vancouver for an extra few days. Had a great time (thanx Toren and Deanna) and saw some cool stuff. Anyone who placed an order last week will have to forgive the fact that it will not be sent out until next week...sorry for the delay!

I think this was the game where the cultists were sacrificing themselves at the obelisk to summon the Great Old One?

Should have gotten a pic of your Cthulhu/Great Old One/Godling model, stonking piece of work!

Post by: Uncle Mike on June 22, 2011, 02:13:27 PM: My head is still spinning! What a fantastic time, and super busy. Thanx to everyone who stopped by our booth for a game and thanx to Mr. James and Cousin Cam for doin' such a great job keeping our booth under control while I was off wandering the con.

Too many cool things to mention all in one place but we will be back again next year for more madness! Didn't have a chance to snap any pictures but I'm sure someone took some...
