Orccon 2009 Live Blog: Playtesting and Municipium demo

Playtesting will be a top draw this weekend. Not only do I expect to play in many of Michael Schacht's playtesting events but I've just run into jim pinto (yes, he's like k.d. lang) from Alderac Entertainment. He the man in charge of their board gaming department and he has some interesting new titles that he's offered to show me. At least one seems to be up my alley so I'm looking forward to giving them a look later this evening.

I've just finished teaching Municipium (myu-nih-KIP-ee-um – unless you like church Latin) to some excited players. We had about four additional folks listening in and I think the next demo will likely fill again. I'm fond of this middle-weight Knizia (okay, maybe light-middle) and the art has really grown on me.

I'm off to teach Roll Through The Ages now and have an 8:30 PM appointment to play Valdora with M.S. The con is filling up already.
