I have been on the phone with the hotel a few times today. They are telling me that it is a system screw-up that will not let rooms be booked under the block. I am told it will be fixed today and i am awaiting for a phone call with the all-clear.
Akira…the actual slots are Friday afternoon and evening, and an all-day special on Saturday.(5 slots). We blocked the hotels Thu-Sun to get the rate for people wanting to arrive early. As time gets closer, i am sure there will be people trying to organize tables for Thursday, Friday morning, and Sunday.

So for clarification, the convention is the 4th (fri) through the 6th (sunday), not the third (thurs) through the 6th, as posted? So I should not come in Wednesday night for a day of gaming on Thursday?

October 6, 2015 at 2:28 pm #269916AnonymousInactiveSo JP are you wearing the dress this time and having your nails done?
‘Cause it won’t be the same unless Kermina makes a grand entrance…October 21, 2015 at 11:32 pm #270064AnonymousInactiveWell… I was waffling on it. It really depends on the special event… If there is a larp event, I will… My daughters (particularly the youngest one) really liked it when I put a dress on (she asked me to do it for her birthday, which I did). The eldest and my wife were much less impressed.

November 4, 2015 at 7:49 pm #270189AnonymousInactiveAny word on where Arcanicon 2016 will be set? Inquiring minds want to know. Not the least of which knowing would help me decide whether or not to put together a costume and for which character.
November 4, 2015 at 8:44 pm #270190AnonymousInactiveChicago, I think

Pretty sure someone said it was going to be a previously unknown Auxunite fortress. Not sure where exactly though.
November 4, 2015 at 9:01 pm #270191AnonymousInactiveSorry should have more concise. Where “in-game” are we going to be? Where is this legendary fortress supposed to be? I assume somewhere in the Blessed Lands?

An Origins module did release the location of a previously unknown Auxinite fortress. So that might be the lead into an Auxenite fortress special event. If so, I think the fortress was in Milandir.
Though personally I’m hoping for something even bigger.
November 4, 2015 at 11:20 pm #270194AnonymousInactiveSomething bigger than a fortress?
So you want to loot a citadel? How about the Citadel of Silence?

Right. So…one slot of Friday then? And we all go home minus our character?

(actually Henry has said that one of the problems of doing anything with the Citadel of Nier, now the Citadel of Silence, is that you need so much more than 4 hours to do justice/anything meaningful with the weirdness and dangers that exist within. The Arcaniscon format, with effectively 5 slots to dedicate to it, might be the right venue to do it someday).
November 5, 2015 at 1:09 am #270198AnonymousInactiveI am like, getting so like. TOTALLY excited about Arcanicon because like, you know. It’ll be like SUPER TOTES AWESOME!

Is the Citadel still a total “no one returns” site? It was turned into one large smoking crater by the release of the wrath of hurrian after all.
“All that remains is the ruined Citadel and four bodies lying in the scattered tower… the bubble of entropy that had protected the denizens of the Citadel is burst…
November 5, 2015 at 1:53 pm #270201AnonymousInactiveIn the old campaign we went to a small Arcanis con in Atlanta. Derrel Weaver ran us through what I understand was a non-canon possibly unauthorized mod where we sort of dream walked through what the “suicide mission” went through. My memories of that are somewhat vague but I recall some seriously weird and dangerous stuff went on. Unless you REALLY have a death wish avoid the Citadel of Nier at all costs. That said I’m sure Henry could make it even worse and better in his special way.
And I would agree it needs more than the four hour treatment. I’ll be honest a BI set there could be epic! - AuthorPosts
