The day started with and unexpected run to Walmart for deodorant because for some inexplicable reason the deodorant was missing from my pre-packed ditty bag. I travel a lot for work so I have my toiletries pre-packed and I \u003Ci\u003Eshould be\u003C\/i\u003E good to go. No biggie since I didn't schedule any games until the afternoon.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EI picked my buddy up at the airport around 1230 and after check-in and lunch we played our first game of the con, which was \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.drivethrurpg.com\/product\/81542\/\u0026amp;affiliate_id=166251\u0026amp;src=FM\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EWar Pigs\u003C\/a\u003E. I started out the game at a severe disadvantage, but by playing defensively until the end I managed to almost win.......my buddy finally got his Naval Gunfire to work right and waxed me just as I was about to take out his tank full of troops.

It was hella gonzo and just off-the-way crazy....and fun. I'm usually more of a fan of \"serious\" RPGs, but if you get to play in one of\u0026nbsp;Doug Kovacs' games......DO IT! I don't think I'd enjoy him as a regular GM, just because of a clash of styles, but I'll be the first to say that I could not run, even with a Co-GM, the number of players he does while having everyone enjoy the game. We had one survivor in the game and it sure wasn't my poor PC, but again I did make it almost to the very end. I ended up missing a critical Luck roll by 1, or we could have had two survivors.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\u003C\/div\u003ENot too much loot picked up today.

Today's already been a bit of a challenge, even though it is just under a 3 hour drive. The challenge is....well...because....it's self-inflicted.

After settling in I managed to hookup with Mr. \u0026amp; Mrs. Tenkar to go out to dinner outside of the immediate area, since we'll all have plenty of chances to eat here. After dinner a quick trip to another Half Priced Books and I found some more Appendix N reading materials. There were some older RPG stuff, but most of it was comically over-priced. Games most people have never heard of, much less played, from maybe 5-10 years ago and priced 2-3x what you could find on Amazon or Ebay.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ELater I was able to check in to registration for the con and pick up last year's and this year's convention modules.

As I stated in an earlier post, my boxes were complete failures. I did manage to make 6 sets of coasters out of wood and cork. By my quick count though I was registered for 7 games. I went back to the store to get more wood, but they were out of the particular product I needed. They did have these rather rough boxes though, and I liked the way the top \u0026amp; bottom fit together. After sanding, branding, and a quick Danish Oil treatment, I added a couple of layers of cork to the top, to act as a possible coaster, and a stained leather bottom, to serve as a rolling tray (\u003Ci\u003E\u003Cb\u003EStupid Aside:\u003C\/b\u003E I think this is the most commas I've used in a single sentence before\u003C\/i\u003E).\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EI really liked how these coasters and boxes came out and I think I'll be making more of them in the future."},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"https:\/\/www.frugalgm.com\/feeds\/7689419603782422256\/comments\/default","title":"Post Comments"},{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"https:\/\/www.frugalgm.com\/2019\/06\/north-texas-rpg-con-day-0-report.html#comment-form","title":"2 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"https:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/4905516554909677599\/posts\/default\/7689419603782422256"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"https:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/4905516554909677599\/posts\/default\/7689419603782422256"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"https:\/\/www.frugalgm.com\/2019\/06\/north-texas-rpg-con-day-0-report.html","title":"North Texas RPG Con: Day 0 Report"}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"Christopher Stogdill"},"uri":{"$t":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/profile\/07831712020518883173"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"16","height":"16","src":"https:\/\/img1.blogblog.com\/img\/b16-rounded.gif"}}],"media$thumbnail":{"xmlns$media":"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/","url":"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-Zhh55yRSxDQ\/XPikOwejsVI\/AAAAAAAAcWI\/9mynbsslmacwOai_bmqYyy7CClUg5DXXACLcBGAs\/s72-c\/NTRPGReport0.png","height":"72","width":"72"},"thr$total":{"$t":"2"}}]}});
