Nerdhalla Day 3

  The last of my scheduled events are done. I bought the Sleeper and Tcho-Tcho factions for Cthulhu Wars. I got 3 free Astral Acolytes with my purchases.  I played in a Luchador event that I'd played last year and made a Cthulhu style deck box in a crafting event. Here's a picture of the box.

   It's a little crude compared to some of the examples they had on display, but I like it nonetheless. There are no events scheduled for tomorrow. I'm going to get up early and get everything packed into the Rav 4, check out and head over to the 24 hour parking facility at 109 South Capitol. I'm going to make a last run through the convention center so I can get a 36 d6 dice cube, some dice to group with a lone d20 I have so it will be part of a complete polyhedral set and take some more pics. By about noon, I'll be on the road heading for home.

Nerdhalla Day 2

  The second day of Gen Con has ended. Today it was The Forge of Fury, a D&D 3.5 scenario and Time Travelers in King Arthur's Court, a Doctor Who scenario. The Doctor Who scenario was run by the same person that ran a Doctor Who scenario two years ago so I got to play Drex, a Sontaran warrior for the second time.
  I bought more dice, as if I needed more. I got a set of d10s and d6s for Cyberpunk. I got a set of Elder dice primarily for Call of Cthulhu and a set of d2 Elder Sign coins. I've wanted a set of legitimate d2s for some time now. The other d2s I have are d6s marked with three 1s and three 2s. The last purchases I'll make tomorrow are some deck boxes for my Paranoia decks, a cube of 36 d6s for the latest version of the Judge Dredd RPG and the last two factions, Sleeper and Tcho-Tcho, for Cthulhu Wars. If they have a 6-8 player world board, I'll buy that too.

Nerdhalla Day 1

  I arrived in Indianapolis yesterday afternoon. I had to go to the Will Call line in order to get my ticket for the Doctor Who event. There's a game store next to the hotel I'm staying at. I saw fellow gamer outside the store. He had purchased the Letters from Whitechapel game. It's a game where one player is the Ripper and the rest are the police hunting him down. The Ripper wins if he successfully murders 5 women without getting caught. If he's caught, the police win. I purchased a copy of the game.
  Day 1 of Gen Con is officially over. I played in a One Ring and a Call of Cthulhu based 5th edition D&D game. I had 3 hours in between gaming sessions so I did some shopping. I bought the 2019 Gen Con commemorative dice set from Crystal Caste plus two sets of polyhedral dice for my gaming belt. I picked up the hardcover Doctor Who rules and The Laughter of Dragons supplement for The One Ring. I made the mistake of purchasing The Oaths of the Riddermark supplement. I had forgotten that I purchased it at last year's Gen Con. I'm going to see if I can return it on Saturday. I also purchased the latest Luchador supplement, Masked Men of Mexico, along with a Luchador mask. My big purchase of the day was the Cthulhu Wars game and three expansion sets, Opener of the Way (Yog Sothoth), Windwalker (Ithaqua) and Azathoth. I might pick up some more expansions. I haven't decided yet. If they have the 6-8 player Earth map, I should consider getting it.
  The weather here's been hot and despite the relatively short walk from the hotel to the convention center, I still sweated my ass off. I found out that I can go from the convention center to the J.W. Marriot hotel without having to go outside. They're connected by skywalks. This will work out nicely since both games tomorrow are in that hotel. It'll be 8 hours of gaming between the D&D 3.5 and Doctor Who games
