    Addendum: I realize you can download the mods before they are pulled from the site and still technically play them. But let’s be honest here people generally don’t want to play “retired” adventures.

    I am hopeful that play of the crusade arc will be at least extended to Arcanicon, and that their impending departure will spur a round of crusade arc play. I would be happy to get in numerous crusade arc modules before their demise at the convention. I think it will functionally be a last chance.

    So, think Crusade arc modules in the open library slots for Arcanicon guys!

    ArcaniCon is technically still A2: Coming of the Destroyer Arc. A3: War of the Paragons does not start until Origins 2017.

    All Soft Points released recently (such as those from U-Con) have been marked as A2.

    Okay, I would have sworn they were A3, but did that change later?

    All A3 adventures begin at Origins 2017.

    Arcanicon adventures are A2 adventures.

    For some reason I thought the premieres at UCon said they were A3 which made wonder if were starting the new arc with some soft points.

    An additional note at this point (January 15th, less than 2 months to ArcaniCon):

    For A:RPG, at present we have 31 people who have indicated they will be attending ArcaniCon. Of those people, we have 6 people willing to judge the main event and 7 willing to judge the soft points. Which is currently good numbers in terms of tables and GMs, but less good if there are a whole bunch of people who show up without notice.

    Please remember that we *cannot* guarantee that there will be a table available for anyone who does not pre-register, as we will not have enough time to find judges at the last minute. If you are even thinking of coming, please sign up. There’s no penalty for signing up and then not attending if you determine you can’t make it. Anyone who registers *after* February 15th will similarly not be guaranteed a table, so please register and save everyone the hassle.

    For 5e Events, we have 4 people who have indicated they will be attending, 2 of whom are judges. This is unfortunate, given the outcry at the fact that we initially did not have plans to offer any 5e and adapted to meet the supposed demand.

    So I thought it might be useful to resurrect this thread to discuss the planning for open slot ARG tables. I will try to keep track of tables/desired discussed on this thread and update planned events as things are discussed.

    We don’t have a convention schedule, but we know the special (which is usually two rounds but may be three) is Saturday, and the two soft points are Friday.

    I am particularly interested in getting in the crusade modules Judgment, Desecration, Condemnation, and For Hates Sake; since this will essentially be the last place there will be a chance to play them before retirement. But I will list any tables that people arrange here that I see.

    Slot 1: Thursday evening, exact time TBD
    Module: Judgment (flexible of which 1 of one of the 4 above we play when)
    GM: TBD
    Players:
    1. Ken M — psion/shaman
    2. Chris C– gnome ansharan tank
    3.
    4.
    5.
    6.

    Table #2: Friday morning, start time 8:00 am
    Module: Desecration (flexible of which 1 of one of the 4 above we play when)
    GM: TBD
    Players:
    1. Ken M — psion/shaman
    2. Chris C– gnome ansharan tank
    3.
    4.
    5.
    6.

    Table #3: Saturday morning, start time 8:00 am
    Module: For Hates Sake
    GM: Eric Gorman
    Players:
    1. Ken M — psion/shaman
    2. Chris C– gnome ansharan tank
    3. Scott — martial
    4. Perrin — martial
    5.
    6.

    Table #4: Sunday morning, start time 8:00 am
    Module: I strike at Thee
    GM: David Chappell
    Players:
    1. Ken M — psion/shaman
    2. Chris C– gnome ansharan tank
    3. Scott W – martial
    4. Perrin – martial
    5. Holly – divine
    6.

    Anyone interested?

    Ken let me touch base with the other two folks going with me to the con. Depending on our schedule we might be able help you with a Friday morning and Sunday morning slot. Depends on what time people want to leave to get there. The Friday slot would be more iffy and I have to be at work early Monday morning, but we should be able to do something Sunday morning based on how people are feeling then. Once I know more I will let you go. Of course if you get a table together with other folks feel free to run with that. \":)\"

    Given we are basically five weeks away from the con I was wondering if there was any more available information concerning the soft points and the special. Thanks!
