Gen Con 2016!
I have been attending Gen Con since 2013. For Gen Con 2016 I wrote a series of blog posts chronicling my adventures there. Check them out! I also have a full compilation of my Gen Con 2016 photos here down below.
Also, here is a great big gallery of all of my Gen Con 2016 photos, enjoy!
On the road!
Toasting to my friends with my late night Whataburger.
I was asked where my WiP Wednesday post was for this week, so I took this photo of where I was at that moment–the middle of nowhere in Arkansas.
Our lovely accommodations!
Time to get some metal into our diets! Trying out the Indy location of my favorite Chicago burger joint.
Cheers!
Now that is what I call a burger!
In line to get our badges.
We actually made it though the line in only 34 minutes!
I decided to get the burger of the month
Two hours until the doors open!
A little “Love Letter” while we wait
45 minutes to go, the crowd is getting thicker
The ceremonial dice toss.
In we go!
I see Wyrd!

Doom the Board Game
Demo of Through the Breach: my first flip during character creation.
I found a wild Liz!
Game 1 of the Malifaux Tourney
Game 2 of the Malifaux Tourney
After the beating I took in my second game of Malifaux, I needed a beer and some noodles.
Go, Nick, go!!!
Game 3 of the Malifaux Tourney; the noodles and beer did the trick and this game went much better.

It’s like the tide rolling in…

I think I found my new look at Gen Con! Unfortunately the game did not come with this smashing outfit.
