TotalCon 2020 (Feb 20-23, Marlborough MA)

Hi All,

Just wanted to get the discussions started on this year's upcoming TotalCon. TotalCon's ASSH Event Count has been increasing each year, Last year there were 11 events, this year there should be more, as Hyperborea is really starting to catch on in this region!

I've submitted a bunch of events this year, so likely will not have much of a chance to play. But in any case, I can't wait to hang out with you all...

My Events are a single Module "Problems in Freydisborg" broken into four, 4 hour sessions.
* Part 1: Thursday Night 7-11 pm
* Part 2: Friday Night 7-11 PM
* Part 3: Saturday 12-4 pm
* Part 4: Saturday Night 7-11 pm

I hope some of you can attend, and attendance to all 4 modules are not required, each section will be stand alone, but will be part of a larger module I'm designing.

Looking forward to it already!

For Con information, go to: https://www.totalcon.com

Signups are being done via Tabletop events: https://tabletop.events/conventions/totalcon-34

Bob,

I’ll be running Chainsaw’s The Lost Treasure of Atlantis all day Thursday and Friday (pending event approval). It’ll be tag-team style, so new players can come and go every four hours. Maybe some brave soul will attempt to complete the whole thing by committing to the full 24 hours.

You know what they say, Iron Ranger, be the change you want to see. Start an old school minicon (like 50 people, in the tradition of the old SoCalMiniCon that Cyclopeatron ran in 2010-2012) and run a few AS&SH games as the nucleus.

Re: TotalCon 2020 (Feb 20-23, Marlborough MA)

I'll be running a couple of games at the con this year!

Thursday 10 am-2 pm The Fortress of the Lost Wolves
Friday 10 am-2 pm The Fortress of the Lost Wolves

The Fortress of the Lost Wolves:  Visited by an aged Kelt Scout, the reavers hear a legend of a once-powerful tribe, their prosperity, and sudden destruction. Payment for taking the elderly scout to see the home of his ancestors is secured.  Dare you sojourn the haunted fort, to recover the long-abandoned treasures?

Time is getting close, Now less than 2 weeks away. Note I still have openings for some of my games. On a second note, there seem to be some issues with the Tabletop.Events site showing that though some events have no tickets taken, they also show no tickets available I notified the Totalcon managers about it.
