Looks like I finally found the party. THE place for Grogs to hang out and talk shop. I'll be adding this to my internet rounds.

Heya, Jim. You in town?

I totally flaked out today - daughter had Girl Scout cookies to deliver.

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Ah well, it was fun while it lasted.  I guess now that we have a world-renowned and respected game dev here we need to pretend to be respectable?
Or can we blow it all off b/c it's just Jim?

Howdy!
I recognize you from the WG boards. What kind of games do you design?

Yep, there goes the neighborhood. Brant let it slip where all of the cool kids were hanging out. Thanks and nice to see all of you here as well.

Nice resume!
What's your current avatar from? I'm reading some Hammer's Slammers ATM and the Slammers use Ground-effect tanks and combat cars.

That would be play test art for the mini-game I'm currently designing. Basically grav armor, VTOLs, power armor infantry, and hopefully some nice new mechanics for recon (that means something in game), command (control and specrtum domination), and combat (rail guns, lasers, missiles, advanced armors, etc).

Sweet!

We could use a good game like that.

LB,

When I get it up and running for playtest I'll send you a copy to beat up. Hope to have it in a playtest state mid/late-March if my real world issues simmer down a bit. I located a place that can make custom markers so I can get 5/8 blank counters made up (in nice translucent colors to boot). Slap my art on the markers and I'm off to the races.

Heya, Jim. You in town?

I totally flaked out today - daughter had Girl Scout cookies to deliver.

Well, silly me - I thought the con was this weekend and rolled by the hotel today.

A friend of mine was telling me he couldn't make it, and I was getting chatter about other folks going. Since it's about five minutes from my house, I naturally didn't check the date.

Anyway, sorry you won't be here when it actually does take place.
