4 major announcements from Gen Con 2019

What is in the article:
1. The reveal of Cyberpunk 2077 – Afterlife: The Card Game
2. The launch of Pathfinder Second Edition
3. A flood of Star Wars expansions
4. The arrival of Marvel Champions

I saw Pathfinder 2 in the wild last night at Barnes & Noble and flipped through it… and was kind of disappointed. I don't like the new layout. I found my eyes drifting around the pages and not being able to focus in on the important stuff. That's just me though, anyone else get a look at them?

Seth Skorkowsky is a friend. So glad for him, his vlog is amazing.

This last weekend our gaming group had an old member from out of town come in to visit. We got a house on airbnb for the weekend and played Dungeons and Dragons and board games all weekend. Also, my Cyberpunk Red starter kit came in, holy crap the art is amazing....

Sounds like rolling for an OP character…

Truck Carrying Gaming Dice Spills Onto Highway, Rolls A Perfect 756,000

On Friday, September 13, a truck bound for the Georgia-based tabletop and video game company Trivium Studios took a turn too sharply, spilling 216,000 gaming dice onto Interstate 75 in Atlanta in what could be the biggest unintentional dice roll ever.

According to Trivium Studios’ community manager, speaking to Kotaku about the incident, the truck was carrying three pallets of Chessex six-sided gaming dice for use in an unannounced tabletop game. Approximately half of the truck’s load wound up strewn across the busy highway on Friday afternoon.

Haven't heard about Space 1889 for a long time (no not since 1889)… Where's my updated Castle Fakenstein?
