Has it really been happening for 10 years already? 

Wow!

So, who else is going?

Hello Everyone!  I am Rex, started playing Hyperborea with 2e in a pbp game on the unseenservant.us.  It has since transitioned to 3e and is still going.  Backed 3e and started playing with my in person group.  I have been lurking here for a while but joined to post on the reference sheets thread, but will probably post on occasion now that I have an account.

REX! 

Welcome sir! 

(I’ve heard that game on the US is pretty awesome.) 

I think you’re gonna feel right at home around here, my friend. 

Enjoy! 

Love it! 

The wife and I will be there, ready for whatever mischief presents itself. 

Looking forward to finally seeing everyone again! 

Here is the Hyperborea game I’m running on Saturday:  https://tabletop.events/conventions/gary-con-xiv/schedule/615

We had a blast as well!

Got to chat with Jeff a couple times and drank way too much for 4 straight days. 

We didn’t get to see or hang with everyone we wanted, but our games were great and I had 2 good groups of players in mine. 

There is never enough time to get to do everything you want to do at these things.

This sounds awesome! I love Metal Church (the band and especially that self-titled album). I love 3D terrain. I am definitely in for this event. I will wear my metal patch vest and participate joyfully with all the inside jokes and bad puns.

By the way I think this is my first post on here. I have not played HYPERBOREA yet and I am looking forward to the upcoming 3e Kickstarter.

Just curious. Were you able to get a seat?

Ahh, I must have missed the post where you described the adventure! Sounds great, and I'm a fan of Metal Church, too. My favorite album is Blessing in Disguise, but the self-titled album is a close second. Cheers!

I think Blessing in Disguise was a masterpiece and by far their best album. 

But I like the first two a lot as well, and the fourth one for that matter. 

This game will be about classic metal music in general, not just about Metal Church. But I found that to be a fitting title.

Metal Church

From the depths of Underborea, rumors proliferate of an ancient temple encased in a strange and mystical black steel. Enduring abundant hardships, your motley band of cutthroat explorers has traversed the immeasurable darkness to locate this unholy edifice and now stand before its immense fortifications reflecting in your dim torchlight. Will any survive to discover the secrets concealed inside the Metal Church?

This game will be an old-school dungeon crawl played with minis on a multi-level 3D DF set-up, complete with metal themed tricks, traps, monsters, and spewing over with Classic Heavy Metal references. Designed for 5-8 characters, levels 4th through 7th (head banging pregens provided), this adventure is sure to scratch the itch of any role-playing metalheads out there. No hairspray posers allowed! (Prior knowledge of classic Metal music is not actually required to play, but it will help.)

I will be there.

AWESOME!!! 

Do you know your game schedule yet, by any chance? 

I assume you will be running something? 

The wife and I will definitely be there!

Nothing submitted yet, but I am currently thinking about running one session of AS&SH. (or will it be simply H by that time?) 

Looking forward to seeing you guys, and all our convention friends again!!!
