GenCon 2008 - Interview #1 - Hellas: Worlds of Sun and Stone

Here is the first of several interviews that I was lucky enough to get at GenCon. I had the pleasure of playing a session of 'Godsend Agenda' last GenCon with my fellow AGC co-hosts, Mark and Chris, as well as some of the rest of the Rolemonkeys, and the guys from The Gamemaster Show.

This year, Jerry brings us Hellas: Worlds of Sun and Stone. It's an awesome looking game with a deceptively simple mechanic that can handle anything.

Also at the booth was Andy Kitkowski - selling Maid the Roleplaying Game - the first Japanese RPG to be translated and released in English.

There's a special mystery guest too at the booth! ;)

A GenCon story about Jerry - he is such a wonderful guy - there was a little girl with her Mom looking for some Bella Sara cards, and Jerry left his booth, and went hunting for cards - found some - and then went looking for them to make sure they got the cards.

Enjoy the interview - and watch for the review of (at least) the QuickStart of Hellas!


An Amazoran at the booth - Yes, an Amazoran, not a Drow, not a Twi'lek, and most definitely NOT a Smurf...



Mick and I took some pics outside the Convention Hall - as she slays the beast!

GenCon 2008

I went to GenCon this past Saturday, and wow - even though I was only there for a day, I had the pleasure of getting *several* interviews, and information, not to mention games for review by Stephanie, Jacqui and myself. We're going to be fairly busy the next few weeks. I am in the process of editing the interviews now, and will be posting some of them soon. I was on the floor for almost all of these interviews, so there will be some ambient noise. I'll do my best to edit them for you all :).

So stay tuned...
