synDCon 2010 - MD, DC, VA
Good day, just taking some time to stop around the Pathfinder forums to let you know about our local (MD, DC, VA) convention synDCon 2010. Don't delay preregistration prices ending soon.
We have a lot of events on the calendar and we'll have availability for a lot of open gaming. In addition, some of our events will directly support the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
These will be four days of gaming, for gamers by gamers.
Of particular interest to this community will be our Pathfinder games. We'll have over a dozen Pathfinder Society adventures spanning all levels. For a comprehensive list of the adventures please visit our site and then go see our game listings here. Or select the site and navigate using the left hand side menu.
In addition to Pathfinder Society games, we'll be running well over 20 Legend of the Five Rings: Heroes of Rokugan (L5R) adventures, including an appearance and seminar by Rob Hobart to discuss the future of L5R.
Among our events we'll be running over 30 different Living Forgotten Realms adventures from heroic all the way to paragon tier, including some adaptables. Matt James, freelance designer and co-author of Monument of the Ancients, has been feverishly working with Erik Nowak & David Phillips on a synDCon exclusive D&D 4e Paragon Level mini-campaign called "The Palace of the Frozen Skulls", which will premiere at synDCon 2010.
Steve Jackson Games' Men in Black will be hosting the Munchkin Regional Tournament.
Lee Garvin, author of Tales from the Floating Vagabond, will be running a game for that system as well as a Kids Track adventure using his d20 rules The Noble Wild.
Seminars by Dave Chalker, Geek's Dream Girl, Matt James & Erik Nowak, Sandy Antunes and others.
We'll have social LARP games using Camarilla rules for Vampire: the Requiem, Changeling: the Lost, Geist: the Sin-Eaters, and Werewolf: the Forsaken.
For the miniatures gaming crowd we'll be hosting a Warhammer 40K tournament, and several other miniatures games.
Mind Storm Labs will be running some games of their ENNIE Nominated Post-Apocalyptic Role Playing Game, Alpha Omega.
Our preregistration prices will be in effect until January 31st. To take advantage of those go and register at our Consupport Site - synDCon. Select one of the registration packages. Then go to the event summary page and select every event you'd like to register for and add them to your cart.
synDCon 2010 will be held from 12-15 February at the Rockville Hilton Hotel and Executive Business Center, 1750 Rockville Pike, Rockville, Maryland, United States 20852-1699. The hotel is steps away from the entrance to the Twinbrook Metro station (Red Line), which links the facility to downtown Washington in 15 minutes. The hotel is also just a few minutes from I-495 (the Washington Beltway) and I-270, with a wide variety of restaurants and shopping along the way, including White Flint Mall.
To make hotel reservations please contact the hotel directly and request the synDCon pricing.
Since this event is happening over the Valentine's weekend we'll have some events highlighting that holiday, and the hotel will be hosting a dinner at their restaurant for the event. Check with the hotel for reservations.
Thanks to all, and I hope to see many of you at our games.
