Gen Con 2013 Preview – Live and Lean

Gen Con 2013 Preview – Live and Lean
From gallery of W Eric Martin
Although I still have much to add to the Gen Con 2013 Preview – and thanks to all the publishers and designers who have sent me their game info! – I've published the Preview and invite your comments and encourage you to thumb titles of interest. Not because I need the thumbs, mind you, but because to this point I've mostly viewed the games as data and haven't contemplated them in terms of, you know, things that you play. That time will come, I suppose, in a brief window between me no longer adding to the preview and me interviewing designers and publishers on the Gen Con floor – so let's say a period of about eight hours while traveling and in the air to Indianapolis.

If you're a designer or publisher and have yet to send me details of the games you'll be selling or demonstrating at Gen Con 2013, email me at the address in the BGG News header above. Oh, and update your game listings! Your potential customers and I will both thank you...
