Sooner Con

[Dark Okie]

Are any of the Troll Lords going to be running a game at Sooner Con In Oklahoma City this year? I always looked forward to getting my yearly C&C fix, but no one was there to run a game last year.

I'll be there selling art and C&C books. I'll see if I can prod Steve into sending someone out to run games. Or find someone there willing to do so.

Not sure what sort of time I'll have since I generally end up doing lecture panels.

[brotherdew]

I'm fairly new to the game, but I have been running other games for several years.
I might be able to swing by Soonercon and would be willing to run a game preferably on a Saturday, but might could do a Friday game.

[Dark Okie]

I would hate for someone to go out of their way. I was just going to try to join one if it was available. I plan on running a game that weekend, but using a system called Fortune and Power. I am not comfortable enough to run a C&C game yet, but that could change between now and June.

Steve needs to deploy "Homieclaus" down to Soonercon to run some gameage!

Trust me I wouldn't be going out of my way. I live in southwest Arkansas so I'm only a few hours from the Con and besides there is nothing better than the first time at a new Con.

Brotherdew,

I will be running a game at Sooner Con on Friday. I am not sure on the time yet since I am still talking with the organizers.

[brotherdew]

Great, I have to see if I can get off that Friday, shouldn't be a problem. let me know the time. My son will probably come with me.

I may not be able to stay for Saturday as work may require my time that day, so a Friday game sounds awesome.

[Dark Okie]

Cool

I hope your son would want to join us in the game as well.

[brotherdew]

Dark Oakie I just wanted to let you know that my son won't be making the trip to Soonercon. He has a school trip that weekend.

[Dark Okie]

That is to bad, I hope he enjoys the school trip.

What time is best for you on Friday, since you are traveling so far? I know the con opens at one.

[brotherdew]

I plan on being there at one and may be looking for a cheap place to crash Friday night if you know of such a place. I have vacation time reserved for the weekend and I plan to stay for most of Saturday as well.

[Dark Okie]

I was looking around for a hotel, The ones I saw close to the convention were at least 100.00 a night. The further out you go, the less expensive they are.

I did find this hotel, the price is not that bad, and I think Soonercon was here one year, I have never stayed in it though. It is a mile and a half away from the convention.

Dark Okie I was just wondering when we are playing and how to find you when I get there.
I'm really looking forward to the event and getting to know a fellow C&C fan.
Do I need to roll up a character or will you be using pregen characters?

[Dark Okie]

Hey there,

I have not received a specific time, I was planning on doing it at one but that is when the con opens, and I imagine their will be a delay. I will try to get more specific info to you as it comes to me.

I was thinking of having the characters start at level five. I was going to have a pregen, but if you have something in mind let me know. Here is what they have on the Soonercon page about C&C. I look forward to running some games and getting to know a fellow Crusader.

I had a great time at Soonercon. I sat in on two C&C games ran by Dark Okie and we had a lot of fun.
I Just wanted to thank him for his hospitality and CKing skills.
I posted some pics on Facebook from the game.

[Dark Okie]

Thank you for the kind words Brotherdew. I had a great time as well, and thanks for helping with the new players that came to our table. I was nervous about running C&C for the first time, but it went smoothly.

That weekend we had four middle school age kids come to our table; who had very little rpg experience and contributed well to the adventure. A good time was had by all.
