I thought I would dedicate a thread to all those smaller cons folks may go to. Joe and myself head to a tiny Tampa Con every three months to shop for comics and look at all the neat pop culture stuff. No attacktix sightings at the last one but we did some great deals on comics! This weekend we're heading north to Baltimore to visit my family but we'll also be stopping at this con. I doubt I'll see attacktix though.

Well, went to the Baltimore Con of 2005 and no attacktix anywhere. It's not realy shocking, that con is usually strictly comic related so there wasn't much Star Wars to be seen anywhere really. Maybe two tables with heroclix (they're dwindling w/dealers - a lot of $1 boxes) but mostly lots of comic books which we read and so we got ourselves a big stack of those. Met Frank Cho (my sister had never met him and is a fan so I stood in line w/her) and Andy Runton (Owly) and Joe won me some free stuff.
It's probably one of the better small cons, we all left exhilarated!!

hm... has the tampa one already gone? you think they would allow someone to host a attacktix tourniment there? The next show is Nov. 20th but honestly it is SO TINY there. No room whatsoever to play anything and there really aren't any rooms around it to set up a tournament either. It's like you walk into a hotel lobby, there is an admission table and then you go into a small conference room and there are dealers inside. They set up all their guests onto a stage even because there is no room for them anywhere else. We want to eventually have a tournament but we're thinking MEGACON 2006 (which is in Orlando). They have a huge tournament section there with a lot of different gaming sections so it's plausible we could set up something there. Nothing official yet of course.

With the Tourney Rules out, I will see if we can't get some prize support - but I doubt we can rent a room.
I'll post any news in the Megacon thread, omce we have one.
