This Just In…From GenCon 2009! Pre-show #2
On this second pre-show episode of This Just In From GenCon 2009, Ryan is joined by Ed Healy of War Pig Radio (and quite a few podcasts!) to talk about convention survival. They go into the 1-2-3 rule (minimum of 1 shower, 2 meals, 3 hours of sleep per day) and some tips that they’ve picked up from their years traveling the convention circuit and from what other folks have said online — notably Adam Jury from Catalyst Games.
They finish it off by talking about what Ed’s interested in seeing at the show — quite the list! We mention:
- The Pathfinder RPG from Paizo Publishing (Check out the video preview of the book!)
- Eclipse Phase and CthulhuTech from Catalyst Game Labs
- Geist: The Sin-Eaters from White Wolf
- Fantasy Flight Games
- Alderac Entertainment Group (AEG)
- Days of Wonder
- Hero Games & Champions Online
If you want to bring Ed some Girl Scout Cookies, he’ll be at the Saturday 5pm show. Bring Tagalogs!
As always, we’d like to thank Don Dehm from Pulp Gamer for setting up the GenCon Media Track, and our sponsors at DriveThruRPG.com.
