I hope to have lots of cool stuff to showoff in March after the con.

You're headed to D&D Experience? Lucky! (*pangs of geek jealousy*)

Be sure to load up on the freebies! []

I've got 2 seat warmers right now. So I've got room for one other password carrying geek.

I'll try hording any stray 4th edition character sheets and promos I come across.

heh, wish I could claim that extra spot, but no can do this year. I'm getting married in August so the finances for "fun" are going to be a bit strained.

Uh... just out of curiousity... how much do you think this would cost for a person that might fill that spot? Travel, average food, etc...

I was gonna rent a vehicle but I hope to buy one before then now.

So $250/night for 4 nights, $200 in gas, $100 for game registration... so $400 per person plus food, drink and souvenirs. Convention/hotels charge a fortune for food so as long as we stock up on groceries the overall cost should be low. Game registration is more expansive if you're doing the minis drafts.

One would be safe with $800

Seems a decent price for a such a big trip. Maybe I should plan to attend one of these things in the future, and budget for it. Have fun!

Lots of interesting changes.

Notables:

1 square for diagonal movement
one move action per turn and one attack action per turn
player who goes first in a round only activates one figure
new action : shift - move 1 square with no AoO
forest only provides cover vs ranged attacks
crit doubles base and additional damage
crit automatically hits through conceal

now if only we had a few more stats to actually play this with
