I think it should be a group effort.  Kinda like Ocean's 11, but far far nerdier....and probably with a lot of sprained groins.

We got 12 folks to show up today for an event that officially only seated 8.  We worked it out - 3 simultaneous games of Liberty or Death.

We had 9 for the team game of A Distant Plain, which kind of turned into "COIN on fast-forward" but was actually a decent bit of fun. 

Wing Leader had a handful of players, and Night of Man got another 4.  LNL Tactical got 5 for one of the sessions, but none for another one.

The only games that haven't drawn a bunch of players were Sergeants! Hell on Wheels games. 

We've also had Lost Battalion shooting some video of their gameplay on their short demos, and LNLP has Wing and a Prayer and Hollow Cell on their demo tables that people are digging.

All in all, day one was pretty busy and people seem to be having fun, which is a giant bag of "win" in my book :)

It was great meeting you guys last night.  I'm definitely going to do a better job of clearing my calendar next year. 

When I got home last night, I found Olivia playing Call to Power.  Neither one of us has played for a long time, so we'll have to figure it out again.  But I'm determined to try and get more into this time.  Maybe it's time to breakout Settlers?
