The Committee


This event will see the following Demos/Playtesting sessions (As always these may be subject to last minute changes):

1. Colin & Ryan Pearson Games:
They are a new independent game's company and have made their first game - Mercenaries, a deck building skirmish RPG!
The game sessions will be 3 - 3 1/2 hours, and they hope to get 2 or 3 games played during our event. As there are 4 available scenarios in the box each game will be a different theme. The game is for 2 - 5 players but for demo purposes 4 is a good number. It can also be played cooperatively or competitively.

2. The next is a playtesting of a potential new Kickstarter game, Master of Olympus by Richard Buxton.

3. Tales from the Loop role playing game run by Darran Sims.
BigTrax and Magic Tricks
Tales from the Loop RPG, Three to five players and 3 to 4 hours play time. 
Newbies welcome!

"This news is even better than getting a brand new Sony Walkman, one of your childhood toys is actually based on a real British tank. A proper full sized Bigtrak on display at the County Show with more tanks, old steam engines, magnetrine ships, market stalls, and even a magic show. What could go wrong?"
