refer below to the answer for the Mellenium con. I'll go to the website to see about how to sign up to run a game. Any ideas on what time slot would be best? There are some games Friday night, a lot Saturday, and very few on Sunday because that's the flee market day where most guys shop and trade.

If you use miniatures, it would be unusual enough to give it a try for one or
two sessions. We cannot give you a separate room, so it will have to be in the
general gaming area and using a standard table...
