Divine machine Golem: Last Day of the Universe is a card based mecha TTRPG. While the game offers incredibly in depth character creation, pregens will be provided for the purposes of this game.

Taking place in a hyper advanced future, the final galaxy is surrounded by an infinite tide of living biomass. The Federation of the galaxy has put its resources together to create Golems, bleeding edge warmachines. You, as a superhuman martial artist, have been selected through various means to pilot these machines only you can survive operating.

There's more to the Golems than you were told.

I would like to host two tables of Battle of Hoth. I'm more than willing to teach.

Star Wars: Battle of Hoth is a game of heroic and fast-paced battles of miniatures that's set on the ice planet Hoth and reenacts one of the most famous scenes of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.
The game does have some team options, and this could work for learning, but it really does play better at 1v1.
Scenarios take well under 1 hour, but I would also like to play a campaign, which could reach about 2 hours (4-6 variable scenarios)

Become the new emperor of Rome in this strategic worker placement game set in 44 BC, Rome. Each turn, you will build structures in different provinces assigned to you through a rotating board. Balance war, politics, trade, and religion while scheming against your rival players.

In Age of Rome, each player is assigned a hero with their respective player board, then are given secret quests and starting resources of Denarii, Followers, Scheme tokens, Legions, and Votes. Then they spend up to nine rounds competing on a rotating board to earn Glory points.

Each round consists of four phases:
1) Scheme phase: An Event card is revealed and turn order is determined; players activate Schemes in turn order.
2) Building phase: Players build structures in turn order.
3) Action phase: Players take actions by placing Followers in turn order.
4) Income phase: Players receive Income and the Provinces board is adjusted.

Players can earn Glory points in various ways. They may build structures, place Followers to vote and win a majority, send Legions to conquer regions, trade or collect items, or even build a Pantheon. Completed secret quests also earn Glory points. After the 9th round, the game ends. The final score is determined and the player with the most Glory points is declared the new Emperor of Rome.

All Ages Welcome

On a perfect day in Pawsburg, a supervillain plunges the city into an unnatural blizzard, and a team of animal superheroes must save lives, stop the freeze, and defeat Iceberg before winter becomes permanent.

I'd like to host a table of Risk G.I. Joe Special Missions-I'll be happy to teach and moderate, would love to play. I have to say, this only looks like Risk (and it looks a *lot* like Risk), but this isn't Risk.

In RISK G.I. JOE: Special Missions, 2-4 players each join one of two factions — G.I. Joe or Cobra — and seek to complete missions or resolve plots in an effort to score the most objective points (OP) after three rounds of play.

One of five master scenarios guides the action, leading to conflicts erupting in hotspots around the world. The game includes multiple unit types — GIs, Skystrikers, Wolverines, Cobra Troopers, Rattlers, and H.I.S.S. — with variable movement, initiative, and battle bonuses, and units defeated in battle are only temporarily lost, cycling back into play over time. Action cards create new avenues for moving and gaining units not present in the traditional game, and scenario and objective cards will influence player strategy.

Lobster Archipelago is a game I am currently developing. Players compete to explore a board full of islands and lobster traps, while building a deck of cards to propel their boat and help them place the most buoys. This would be a playtest, and I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for at this event. I'd be happy to discuss the game and the type of experience you're trying to cultivate. I actually have another game I could bring as well, so if you're open to a play-testing area I have options. I've been to Pax Unplugged so I'm somewhat familar with the vibe at these events and I'd love to contribute. Thank you!

Join Kass for a selection of small-press RPG offerings! There will be two or three games on offer, to be decided at game time. No experience necessary, and all materials provided!

Something is killing people in the city's long-abandoned subway tunnels—leaving behind strange symbols, mutilated bodies, and whispers of an urban legend brought to life. When a cursed object tied to the deaths resurfaces, you're called in to track it down before the streets drown in blood.

I would love another opportunity to share this game. Depending on who shows up, I might play or teach and moderate.

Build your very own thriving jungle by discovering various wild animals, insects, and plants in this beautiful board game.

Life of the Amazonia is a strategic meeple placing game that combines bag building and pattern building. Players will restore land, place various animals, and plant trees and flowers to enrich their jungles and create the most ecologically rich jungle. Various lives must be placed in the jungle taking into account each unique characteristic of the plants and animals in order to create synergies within one another. To carry out these actions, bag building that fits in with the player’s strategy is crucial.
