Thanks guys...I also had a blast. Great players and great games. Each game went differently and in every game there were different 'stars'. The players also picked up the rules very fast and we had lots of laughs all around. And that's always a good sign!
Here are pictures of the games in progress:
The table setup. Easy to do after "dry fitting" it at home. Also displayed lots of stuff next to the game to show what it all has.
Agent Smithers duking it out with the Mi-Go (who is plain nasty in close combat due to the high CON). A very fast, but interesting first game.
Start of the second game...Threshold is rushing in while the Cult is terrorizing the poor hermit.
The Mi-Go and Cultist with shotgun try to stall the agents, but their aim is poor...
While the youngest Cultist present at Poldercon plots his retreat, special agent Roon tries to stop the Cultist while he is running away. The ending is tense with the Cultist going Face Up close to the edge of the table (he was the last man standing). But in the end he barely manages to escape, while the rest of the Cult was slain.
In the third game we had four sides (with me playing one group of Lurkers...containing a proxy because I forgot the Snakeman at home!
). This was also the only game using the event cards. Which were fun, but...
...Divine Intervention proved to be a tough cookie! It was played twice on Threshold Characters which was a big bummer for the Cult.
The Cult tries hard to stall Threshold, while the Cultist with knife keeps on harassing the hermit. Took 4 turns to get the info out of him!
But in the end he manages to get to the edge of the table...and the dastardly Jan plays a...Divine Intervention on him! Apparently he was protected by Cthulhu and he could get away. Threshold was close...very close.
And forgot to take some good pictures of game 4!
A shot with an overview of the con. Lots of great people, lots of great games and a fantastic atmosphere. Awesome day.
Thanks to all the players for the great games and thanks to Poldercon for a fantastic event. It was a blast
