Actually, we are very lucky he lives in the area, and is a very nice fellow who agreed to come and hang out with us. Paul has said he will come and visit with us, answering any questions about JG, his artwork, his work in the computer game industry, and any other aspects of his career. A great opportunity for a Judges Guild historian or enthusiast! Proabably not needed to be mentioned, but Paul wrote the best of the Judges Guild items published (Dark Tower & Caverns of Thracia among them). He did tons of artwork for TSR (the classic cover of the Dragon's Mountain box set one example) and especially Dungeon Magazine (covers and interior). He also did a lot of artwork for other companies (covers for ICE's Shadow World series) during the 80s and early 90s. In the last decade Paul has worked on design for id and Ensemble studios (Quake, Arena, Age of Empires III, Halo Wars) and helped establish Guildhall, a graduate level program at Southern Methodist University focusing on game design. Anyway, it goes without saying we are very excited to have Paul, as he hasn't been a part of the pen and paper gaming community in awhile and does not appear at conventions very often. If you have any questions for Paul, we are going to try to set up a "live" question and answer session in person and online Friday or Saturday night; failing that, I will be delighted to forward any questions anyone here might have to Paul. Actually, if I can get the chance, I will try to come up with a short set of questions and get a "one on one" with Paul at some time during the con. Anything you are interested in finding out from Paul, just post it here and I'll try to shoehorn it into our conversation that weekend! Mike B." Games I am...

Posts: 524 Jan 23 10 9:55 PM Ghast Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I'm in! I'm running one of the five sessions of the Tower of Mythus, a Swords & Wizardry-based megadungeon adventure that's being run in a series. Kind of like a living campaign, within one or more conventions. I'm also running an all day marathon game of AD&D with an open table for players to come and go as they wish and a big ol' pile of pregens. I'll be using the Castle of the Mad Archmage by Greyhawk Grognard Joe Bloch. That maddness will take place on the Sunday of the convention. http://black-blade-publishing.com

Posts: 3705 Jan 24 10 4:44 PM Necromancer Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I am SO going again. I had a blast. Our hosts were the best hosts of any con I have ever attended. The convention attendees were good people who were respectful of their hosts, game masters and fellow players. The list of special guests (gaming luminaries) is even bigger than last year. The game masters put on games that everyone enjoyed. If you want to play in old school games this is the con to attend. Games I am...

I'll be running an OD&D session at the con, too, using a sublevel from my Cromlech Tor dungeon ("The Ambit of Ordeals"), slightly modified it for convention play.

Posts: 524 Jan 25 10 9:42 PM Ghast Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Yeah, it will be good to see both of you guys again. I was hoping to have a chance to grab a seat at your table, PJ, but if I'm remembering correctly, I may be running a game for Matt at the same time (unless that's been changed, which it may have). I need to sync up my con schedule with Mike's on the con website. The Cromlech Tor maps that you had with you last year looked intriguing. http://black-blade-publishing.com
