Gen Con 2015 Live Blog!

Upper Deck has an AWESOME booth this year! They put gamers in the jungle for the release of their Predator Card Game. We will definitely have to grab a demo sometime in the next few days and I'm so hoping to see some killer Predator cosplay!

After seeing the booth for Wyrd, I cannot wait to have a chat with them! There's something magical about the dark and crazy terrain you can use for Malifaux...

Gianna and I just got to play a game of Malifaux using the 2 player starter set. It was really well balanced, with fun abilities for both sides- the Guild & Neverborn. The great points for me was having an abbreviated set of rules available as well as everything you need to play in the box - tape measurers and all!

The fate decks were great too, as they have some explanations on them to serve as handy reminders - like the difference between the black & red jokers and whether cards register weak, moderate or severe damage.

And then there was my favorite part of the game...winning! Sorry Gianna. 😉

Contrary to the rumors circulating, GW is in fact here. Their booth is very unassuming, and there's no signage, but they are here selling Age of Sigmar. We will try to grab a chat in the next few days.

The demo tables are packed at Privateer Press, and their display cases were loaded with beautiful minis! The display piece with the train was absolutely stunning! Take a look in the cases for current and upcoming releases.

Demo games are in full effect at the Pulposaurus booth. We will get a chance to talk to them this weekend, but until then, here's a peek at what they've got...

The Kickstarter for this is now LIVE so go check it out!

Clear on the other side of the exhibition hall, we found a GW rep with an Age of Sigmar stand! Very friendly and chatting it up with gamers. They have a nice display as well as the sprues laid out for people to have a look. Well done, GW. 🙂

While roaming the aisles, we stumbled on Cubicle 7, who have some really lovely Hobbit and Lord of the Rings games. We will definitely stop back to have a chat about these.

The hustle & bustle of the convention is like no other. Between gaming and people watching, it can be difficult to decide what to do- but I can think of worse decisions. 🙂

Mice & Mystics from Plaid Hat Games couldn't be any cuter! They had me at creatures, but after seeing how adorable the minis are, I'm hooked! Then they added Tail Feathers for fantastic birds. How do you choose?

CMON's Rum & Bones looks very irresistible displayed on the beautiful show piece for the convention. Sitting on top of a treasure trunk, 2 ships are facing off in an epic battle on the high seas.

Did you managed to back this on Kickstarter?

There was some interest in Japanime, so we ran by their booth to have a look. They were excited to announce that in addition to their Kromaster Arena game, they'll soon have another variety available with Kromaster Quest.

Are you a fan of this rather cute and chibi looking game?

Indianapolis is coming to life as the gamers are making their way into the convention center. This morning we will be filming the Covus Belli 10th Anniversary seminar, which should be great! Today is also the classic costume parade in the afternoon, so I expect we'll see a whole lot more from the cosplay individuals.

Today is parade day and cosplay competitions. Participants are lining up and I heard them say there are no more entries available, so only those who preregistered can participate.

Gamers are checking in to play in Upper Deck's Legendary Championships. Many will enter, few will win.

We got a great chat in with Adam, so look for a video in the am. Until then, feast your eyes on the stunning contents for the game Kingdom Death. All the things you see here are included in the base set.
