Visit Skirmisher at Gen Con Booth 314!

As always, Gen Con Indianapolis is the place to be in August, and Skirmisher will be displaying its latest books and other products in the exhibit hall at Booth 314, at the left end of the exhibit hall. Be sure to come by and look at our latest releases, sign up for some of the events based on our games, and speak with us in person! New products scheduled for release at the con include:

* H.G. Wells’ Little Orc Wars, a versatile, easy-to-learn miniature wargaming system based on rules developed by the great science fiction author.

* USSMC FM 7-22: Space Boarding Operations, an innovative book that is designed to read like an actual U.S. Space Marine Corps field manual devoted to boarding hostile spacecraft and battling their crews in A.D. 2089. It is also the official licensed publication of the TerrorWerks (http://www.terrorwerks.com/) live-action event that will debut at Origins in July.

* Old Man of Damascus, a script for the Cthulhu Live 3rd Edition live-action horror roleplaying game.
