Fear the Con 2: Savage Ghostbusters
First game for Saturday is Josh’s Savage Ghostbusters game (Ghostbusters setting using the Savage Worlds game system). I’m playing Johnson McCoy, a redneck high schooler. Check the mullet, yo.
Your Morning Head: Fear The Con 2 – 1st Day Recap, pt 1
Sweet fancy Moses, I’m tired this morning! Fortunately, coffee and little chocolate donuts have swept in for the rescue! Yesterday was an unrelenting day of gaming goodness here in the greater Saint Louis area. Games started at 11:30 AM and pounded on for twelve hours. The con’s being held at Memorial Hall in Saint Charles, […]
Fear the Con 2: Succession Wars
Finished set up for the next game, which is an Out Of Print number called Succession Wars. It was published by FASA back in the eighties. Chris Hussey is reffing. I have a very sketchy understanding of the rules. And I have drawn the most challenging territory to play. About to have my ass handed […]
Fear the Con 2: Let the Games Begin!
In my first game of the con… Playing Don’t Rest Your Head. What’s been keeping me awake? The sky is falling, man. The sky. It’s falling!
Your Morning Head: FtC2's World Wide Wing Night
I had a terrific time at last night’s World Wide Wing Night, Fear The Con’s pre-con social event. Here’s how it works. Gamers. Wings. Beer. Cigars. Brilliant combination.

Mutha F*ckin' House of the Dead: OverKill
Warning: MAJOR SPOILERS. If you care about the ending of the game, don’t continue reading. Seriously though…you should. You might thank me for the warning. I loved the hell out of House of the Dead: Overkill. The fact that every sentence contains “Mother F*cker” in it causes me to cuss more. It even causes my […]
Fear the Con 2: Cigars 101
Chad gives a presentation on how to smoke a cigar. Surprisingly awesome!
Fear The Con 2: At The Hotel
I’m at the hotel where most of the out-of-towners are staying. It’s the Best Western in St Charles, Mo. It kinda sucks. The FtB discussion forums have seen a lot of discussion about how the hotel botched reservations in advance of the con. I experienced some of that myself. They lost my first reservation. When […]
Eh…Terminator looks better
The new Wolverine trailer just premiered this morning online and you can watch it below, courtesy of MTV. Not sure what to make of this one yet. I love Hugh Jackman, I love the X-Men, and everybody loves Wolverine…but this film looks a lot like Elektra to me, and that wasn’t the best comic book […]
