WYSIWYGames Talks About Upcoming Planet Of The Apes Miniatures Board Game
After seeing the image of the Caesar miniature pop up on Facebook, I've been dying to catch up with WYSIWYGames to talk about their upcoming Kickstarter for The Planet of the Apes Miniatures Board Game.
The concept of the vertical play on the game board is awesome!
Cryptozoic - Rick & Morty & Their DC Tabletop Games
Cryptozoic has come to the show with Rick & Morty (which is awesome) as well as some news on their upcoming DC tabletop games like their deck builder and some expansion content too.
Make sure to check out their Rick & Morty games as they are a lot of fun.
Gen Con Museum (50 Years Of Gen Con)
We stopped in at the Gen Con Museum in the Lucas Oil Stadium to have a look through some of the exhibits which have been showing off how the show has changed over the last half a decade.
It has been utterly awesome seeing some of the old D&D manuals and more that have come to life and the move towards board and miniatures games over the years.
bring me the marvellous, magnificent and all things most magical.
infinity, of coarse.
KD:M, naturally
shadows of esteren , if you can find them.
We should be talking with Kingdom Death/Adam a little later this weekend so watch this space. Infinity is in Day One if you want to check it out!
thanks Ben
I agree on shadows of estern vastly underrated game imo yes I think it’s THAT GOOD
I really hope yall have more from Time of Legends: Joan of Arc. A demo game perhaps!
Need to talk with more of the vendors, please!
It’s on our list, got a lot of appointments today 🙂
Any more news from Mythic Realms Pantheon?
Are the mythic games chaos at Gencon?
Chaps even…
They are. Leo was interviewed on yesterday’s blog IIRC.
Any chance of seeing the guys and gals of Flying Frog Productions to find out how things are moving on with all the Shadows of Brimstone stuff (especially delivery to us here in the U.K.)
Take a look at Big Trouble in Lttle Chinia from Everything Epic.
Also, Hirst arts is there.
…and they’re still going… somehow… just!
Time to catch up…
WOOHOOO – Finally ticked over my 1000 karma!
you should also unmask every cosplayer you see, just on the off chance it’s Adam Savage
He would have gotten away with it too if it wasn’t for those meddling kids
Great seeing you all having a great time! Wish could have gotten together but maybe next year after you get warren to come with you

Hope we get some Star Saga vids looking forward to seeing what changes they’ve made from Dungeon Saga
Amazed that the jeg lag hasn’t hit so far
Models look great. Will they be painted or is that up to us?
Wasn’t there going to be coverage of the Corvus Belli seminar?
Well done for keeping up the enthusiasm, looks like a great con to be at, but exhausting at the same time.
Love to see some indie games from companies that we might never have heard of.
Still catching up, catching up and up!
The end of day video just goes to show how awesome Dawn and Gianna are as they normally have to cover the event on their own. Great job everyone, looking forward to today’s installment.
One of my goals in life is to attend Gen Con. Love all the coverage for those of us that can’t be there!
I have never been to Gencon, or any con for that matter. Would definitely like to make it to gen-con someday.
More Fallout, please
Impressive!
Keep the coverage coming! In the final stretch!
This was fun
All I can say is Kingdom death!
