Thanks man, I'm flattered. Should be good!
I'm in too!

Awesome! I've run this module more than a dozen times now and everyone's had fun, so I'm sure it will be great.

I registered another AS&SH game for max-level characters on Saturday morning between 10-4: "Buried Under Black Ice". A large black diamond-shaped object fell from the heavens while the longbeards began muttering about signs and portents of a war between the stars and the gods. It crossed the sky over your small freehold before disappearing beyond the mountains guarding the Plain of Leng. Now the diviners warn that unless you find it first, this mysterious conflict will destroy the freehold you've eked from the wilderness.

If there’s any dead time we might be able to get a start in off-grid some evening, and carry on over roll20 after the con

(I’ll be running it at GC too, since off-grid plans can get lost in a haze of Jim’s excellent stout!)

I will be in Chainsaws AS&SH game at that time. Maybe we can all get together and do something off-grid, although my plate is pretty full.

Oh, my goodness, I love when the PCs are fed a ration of paranoia as motivation to do stuff. Excellent.

Yeah, I didn't pay close enough attention to when all the other great AS&SH games are running!

I'll probably cut the convention time slot down to just the meat of the adventure, and leave out the journey, so that PCs have a shot at the end game if they play well. But perhaps if the stars align (instead of falling) an off-grid can start up at some point earlier in the week that would allow a play through of the entirety over a couple of nights.

And if not, I'm sure I'll be running it online between now and next year's con season.

Rations of paranoia are the main course of my campaigns :D

That's a metaphor for life, right?

Awesome! That game has another father with his two sons, so it should be fun to see how it all plays out.

At the airport, loaded up with my gear. Pumped!
