We have 86 people pre-registered this year for Barrage. Last year at this time, the number was under 40. We are expecting a large turnout.

We will have TWO Star Wars themed role playing games on Friday at Barrage. The first will be run by Bill Slavicsek, the author of the Star Wars RPG. The second will be by Ed Watts using 7TV. Don’t miss out on these great adventures.
Scroll about half way down the front page of the Barrage site. You’ll see the list of vendors who have already signed up for Barrage. We expect a few more to be added shortly.
We’ve added a Torchbearer RPG to Friday night at Barrage. This is an innovative fantasy RPG run by Bill Acheson.
Guest GM Emeril will have a table setup during Barrage with small card and board games. This is a great way to spend an hour or two between larger miniatures games. Emeril introduced me to games like Forbidden Island and Gloom at HarCon. This is a great way to spend a little time between other games and also try some games you’ve seen at your local hobby store but haven’t tried yet.
We plan to offer three or four RPGs on Friday evening at Barrage. The first one added is a Star Frontiers game. Star Frontiers is a science fiction RPG for space opera type games. Sign up today for a chance to play with Zeb Cook, one of the authors of Star Frontiers.
This year we wanted to try to run a handful of role playing games on Friday afternoon / evening at Barrage. If you are interesting in running a role playing game, contact Buck Surdu or the Barrage Webmaster. These would be one-off adventures. D&D, Tunnels and Trolls, Star Frontiers, Empire of the Petal Throne, Traveller, or something else would be good.
If you already have an account, you can sign in and begin to sign up to run games. Later this week, I’ll start updating the gaming grid with this year’s games. If you don’t have an account, create one today. It’s free and easy. Once you have an account you can sign up to attend the convention or run games.
Mark your calendars for Barrage 2019, which will be held on 27-28 September. Registration for GMs, vendors, and attendees will open in July 2019.
