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
