At DREAMATION Illuminarchy Press will be running final pre-production playtests in slots durring the convention.
One thing I wish to stress to any who pre-reg for the con especially. You will recieve published credit as a playtester. Also most of the actions taken by the players (those in line with the feel of the particular game) will become a perminant part of the published gameworld. You have the possibility of becoming a perminant in the gameworld, and have an impact of the future development of the game.
Many of these games have not seen the light of day at a Double Exposure convention since Dexcon 5, and some have never been played at any convention EVER. This is the chance to carve out your notch in history if not in this world, then another.
The Games being Run are titled as follows:
Anarchist's Prayerbook: We've killed Mother (10 seats available)
Necessity is the mother of invention, be fat, be lazy, be stupid the
Church will provide all your needs. Comply. As a member Theocratic
Resistance you seek free will. To free your will, and live in peace.
This is a two round elimination. The best player will recieve a Free
Signed Copy of the Game upon publication in July. This is the
Campaign begining, be a part of the official campaign that will be
published as the backstory to the world... make your mark
Spaceways The Merchant's War: Agamemnon Rising (12 Seats available)
You are recruits... ooooops Conscripts of the Confederate Ships
Service. You have been trained to do your job... well enough and you
are awaiting assignment in the service of the state... you only other
choice was 6 months hard labor asteroid mining (an almost guaranteed
death sentence). A ship has returned sans a crew, and after ships
services has scrubbed it out you are issued aboard, and sent on you
first mission find out what had crippled the Agamemnon, and killed all
its crew... Good Luck, and God Speed.
Europah: Planetfall Rise of the Children (18 seats available)
You are a member of a new army... The Army Children of the Void. The
call has gone out, and you are asked to save one of the last vestages
of human society. With the rallying cry do you rise, or fall? Can
you stand against the hordes of Necronaut, Bug, or Katrean flesh that
seeks to extinguish the race formerly knows as Terrans. Do you rage,
rage against the dying of the light. Are you the beacon of hope to
all humanities hopes dreams, or will you too be broken against the
stone of the ravages of war?
The system used will be the illumisystem c104 system (uses 2 decks of standard playing cards). We believe it to be the most travel/camp/anywhere friendly game system. But we will be looking for input, good/bad/indifferent so come along.
