Have Games, Will Travel #103

Post-GenCon Grab Bag

0:33 - This episode is much later than I'd like, but I'm
finally back from my post-GenCon hiatus.

1:14 - This show is part of the Gaming Broadcast Network.

1:21 - First up on my review pile is 40 Years of GenCon, an
oral history of North America's biggest gaming convention.

4:12 - I was bowled over by Hobby Games: The 100 Best, a
collection of essays by one hundred game designers about their
favorite games.

8:48 - Have Games, Will Travel is supported by RPGNow.com

9:06 - I finally got a chance to read two books I contributed
to, Finis: A Book of Endings to Give People New Beginnings and
the Story Games Names Project.

10:59 - My favorite game from GenCon so far is Grey Ranks, a
roleplaying game about child soldiers during the 1944 Warsaw
Uprising.

12:02 - I haven't been playing much recently, but my group is
getting ready to play Burning Empires (PDF). I've also managed to
fit in some Play-by-Email games of Hammer of the Scots and Sword
of Rome.

13:27 - Don't forget about my other gaming podcast, The Voice
of the Revolution, and my Actual Play weblog, A Fistful of Games.
