Well, it sounds interesting, and Utrecht isn't such a long drive from here. Hmmm...

As a weekend worker this isn't possible for me, but even then, €17,50 for a ticket, that's more expensive than Crisis and Salute.
That's gonna have to be a helluva show...

Jammer on not coming...  :(   

I think it includes lunch if I read correctly

Will you be at Crisis?

Unfortunately not.
sick leave ends 24/10 so the weekends thereafter it's back to working  :?
Luckily I've got lots of friends attending so I can order stuff and have it picked up by someone.
There's also a tiny package I'm sending along to be picked up by Gunbird @The Red Barons table (They will be setting up a Battlegroup table) :)

Damn, duur dagje...vind het echt veel voor een entreeprijs.

But anyway, if you need help with organizing anything, like demoes or participating games, let me know! I can always bring along Pulp Alley with my Cairo end/or jungle tables.

We realise it's not cheap (although, relatively speaking...). It includes lunch, workshops and participation games, for a limited number of gamers. You'll want to come to learn, discuss and partake in your hobby.
It is very much NOT meant to be a 'shopping show' where we have lots of people through the door (who together help to lower the costs!).

Also: proposals for participation games are VERY welcome at the same address. We'll put together the final program in the next few weeks and will be looking for a good variety of games on offer.

I'm thinking about running an Across the Dead Earth game for the event.

Barry and I chatted via FB and he asked me if I'd be interested to run something, so I sent you guys an email about it tonight already :D
