Mysticon 2013 was a great success last weekend. We had a great time running the three Franklin Adventures and meeting some great folks.
Corey Spillis snapped the following photo during our last game of the weekend. That's me behind the screen and Bert Schmid on the outside of it. The papercraft starship is one made by Fat Dragon Games that MystiCon Gaming Director George Minter assembled and gave me as a gift.
I can't believe that February is almost over, but its true that time flies when you're having fun. We've had a great month this month and we're really looking forward to March.
Most of February has been spent working on Clement Sector and we're hoping to have it out there to you in mid-March. This is our core setting book and we're quite proud of it. Still more writing to do and the art is now starting to arrive.
ConNooga starts tomorrow! We'll be running two games tomorrow and one game on Saturday!
The convention is located in the Chattanooga Choo-Choo complex in Chattanooga, TN. All gaming events will be held in Track 29, the concert venue which is located to the real of the complex.
Game 1 - "The Movie Snobs" (Friday 2-6pm) - Following the collapse of
the wormhole leading back to Earth Sector, items from Earth have become
more and more valuable. Now the leader of a powerful corporation has
asked the crew of Pandora's Box to obtain a rare original print of a
famous film from another corporate giant's personal collection. Can
they pull it off? Or will they anger someone powerful enough to end
their lives?
Game 2 - "Just Another Bughunt?"(Friday 7pm -
11pm) - Diamond Enterprises CEO Maxwell Chandra has hired the crew of
Pandora's Box to investigate the loss of an advance colony sent to
CXD-707. Did the colonists just go rogue? Were they attacked by
pirates? Or is this just another bughunt?
Game 3 - "I'm On The Lamb, But I Ain't No Sheep" (Saturday 10am - 2pm) -
Captain Cramer's past has come back to haunt him. Can the crew of
Pandora's Box survive? And can they turn the tables on those who would
see them destroyed?
And I will be in Track 29 on Friday from
10am onward. I'll have a good stock of books for anyone who wishes to
purchase! So come on out and say hello!
Well, the book came out at midnight today and we already have garnered two 5-star reviews!
Thanks Megan R. and William W.!

OK. A few things to mention to everyone today.
Because February is Gypsy Knights Games' birthday month, we will be running a 25% off sale on all of our PDF products. You can find them at DTRPG here. The sale will run from February 1-9, 2013. Originally, we had announced it would run just this weekend, but we've decided to extend it.
And we now have times for our games at MystiCon in Roanoke, Virginia February 22-24.
"The Movie Snobs" starts at 5pm on Friday, the 22nd.
"Just Another Bughunt?" starts at 10am on Saturday, the 23rd.
"I'm On The Lamb, But I Aint No Sheep" starts at 8pm on Saturday, the 23rd.
We should have times for our games at ConNooga in Chattanooga, Tennessee soon.
Just wanted to give a quick status update concerning activities here at Gypsy Knights Games.
Currently, we have several "irons in the fire" as they say. As of right now, we have three products in various stages of production. In addition, we have three adventures set in the Franklin subsector that we are playtesting.
Our local group will be playtesting one of the Franklin adventures this evening provided the weather cooperates. Speaking of playtesting, let me remind you again that we will be playtesting each of these new adventures at both MystiCon in Roanoke, Virginia on February 22-24 and ConNooga in Chattanooga, TN March 1-3.
So if you are in the area and can make it out, come by, say hello and play in a game or three.
As I've mentioned before, our core setting book "Clement Sector" is in production. I am still working on the text of it right now and some art has been commissioned for the book that I think everyone will love.
And speaking of art, here's a preview of one of the upcoming products for which we have the cover art prepared.
Some
errors were noted in all three of the Cascadia Adventures. These
errors have now been corrected and the new versions should be available
to d/l for free if you have already purchased the originals.
Sorry for the errors, but they should be repaired now.
