Conception X Diary

James Mullen's picture

Got back from Conception yesterday after an excellent time and completing my challenge of running ten games in ten consecutive slots; I think I failed a few Sanity rolls and lost half my hit points, but already I'm thinking what to do next year. Anyway, here are the highlights of my Conception X diary.

Conception CE games from the Pompey Crew

Dunno if you guys have thought your schedule through yet but the we will be running the following CE games in varying slots

3:16
Contenders
Cold City
Duty and Honour

So may wanna run other stuff accordingly we have (i think) 5 different Cold City scenarios between us, so would seem stupid for you guys to run lots of CC. Indie Rich is also running alot of 3:16 i think! Looks like he will have stickers for kill badges, campaign medals and crimson swords all done by then to for the players! That is awesome :)

Conception 2009

The tenth year of Conception, a games convention on the south coast of England (Christchurch). The Collective Endeavour will be there once more, running even more games than last year!

What's happening with the stall itself? Are you looking for buy-ins? I might like to put Play Unsafe on there.

Playtesting at Conception

I imagine there's a few games to playtest at Conception: I'd like to playtest A Need To Kill; Iain will have Stitch, I imagine; Andrew will have Six Bullets; Rich will have his extensive range of Umlaut supplements ("Umlaut Rockbook: Glam!").

How would you feel about informally designating one slot, each day, as a playtest slot? Perhaps the evening. We could decide that there'll generally be a playtest going on each evening: there's no obligation to keep the evening free, but we'd make an effort to ensure everything got playtested.

Games schedule for Conception

Guys, we need to get a schedule together for Conception.

As far as I know, the following people are coming and going to run games under the CE banner:

Me
Iain
Andrew
Graham

Andrew, do we have a dedicated table like we did last year?

I know someone suggested that we have at least one CE or Indie game running in every slot. I personally think that this is very achievable with only a little planning. It's a good idea to get the schedule of game up as early as we can.

The slots are as follows:

Weds: Afternoon, Evening

Thurs: Morning, Afternoon, Evening
