It’s that time of year again as my favorite gaming convention starts really gearing up for four days of fun in Indianapolis this Summer. Tickets for Gen Con 50 go on sale today beginning at 12pm EST! I know we’ll be covering the show (as always) and I certainly hope you’ll join us to celebrate gaming history. Gen Con runs August 17th through the 20th at the Indiana Convention Center.
From Gen Con:
It’s almost time!

During Pre-Registration, attendees from the United States can choose USPS Priority shipping or 24-hour on-site Will Call pick-up. After Pre-Registration closes, badges will revert to their standard prices and must be picked up via Will Call.
