"We go South."
Stupefied look and momentary pause. "Okay. Bump, bump, bump."

Hydra Miniature's Game at GENCON
Good ole Tim Knight at HeroPress always seems to get the scoop on really neat things; and my hat is off to him, he puts in the time and writes the "rhyme."
Now take this recent news from HP for instance. A Pulp SF game debuting at GENCON, and sold out for all of its sessions:
@Scottz: Yeah, agreed. I was going to post some of those picts from the blog (all oozing with 'pulpishness') but let the link to it stand instead. Good stuff.
@Jay: I'd like to play it in the future. Enough cannot be said for selling out all five game sessions at GENCON. Good press indeed. I'll be looking forward to the post-con reports.
Thank you for the kind words and plug :)
ReplyDeleteI'm technically supposed to be on a "break" from blogging - but keep hearing of this great things I want to share with people!
Yeah. I saw your "vacation post" and snickered a bit. I believe it lasted a day? Heh. Bitten by the "bug," 'Acrobatic Flea'?
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to stay away from Geekdom when you are one of its official announcers. :)
Later 'Flea.
The War Rocket game really got my interest, but I attribute that in large part to the stylistic miniatures.
ReplyDeletePulp 'Rocket Ships'!!!
I'm a huge fan of Hydra's minis--and greatly anticipated the War Rocket game. I hope to get my hands on some soon!

Makes me think of minis skirmish rules for Urutsk. ;D
ReplyDeleteGreat looking stuff. :D
