So Gencon 2010 is over and I can honestly say this year’s con was a bit different that years past. For starters I wasn’t signed up for eight hours  of events per day and secondly this was my first Gencon where Warmachine was my game of choice.  This year I got my first taste of Warmachine at Gencon and I can say it was a little crazy playing in a tournament from 9pm to 5am but it was a blast. This year we saw the WoW TCG displayed by their new owner and they seem to have it together at least initially. Gencon 2010 also saw classics games with new releases including Pulp City and Malifuax.  I personally didn’t pick up any of either game but I have a list of Pulp City ready to be purchased pending a demo of the new rule changes. Which brings us to the new game dare I say the new hotness, it still to early to tell but judging by the purchases of some of the local guys it has a shot at being one of our go to games. The game in question would be MERCS.

I will strive to scour the web and the stores themselves to bring the most current and useful informatin about upcoming events and whatever else I feel needs to be told. So without further delay here is the News for the Southside…

Malifaux taking off on Thursdays at the South Side GP

Straight from the Greenwood Game Preserve’s Facebook group it’s official Malifaux is growing in popularity enough so that Thursdays have become the dedicated night for Malifaux players to throw down in the creepy world of Malifaux. I personally haven’t had a chance to check out the Malifaux crew at the store but I know a lot of the players from the Warmachine\Hordes group are getting into Malifaux and I have nothing but positive words to say abut those guys. What other reason do you need? Interested in Malifaux? Stop by and check them out!
