Attention Gamers!!!

The Midwest's Fastest Growing Gaming Convention, ORBCON, is closer than you
think!

This year's Orbcon will be held at the Adam's Mark Hotel in Columbus, Ohio,
on the weekend of Feb 20 to 22 1998.  RPG's, RPGA events, Sanctionioned
tournaments, LARP's, CCG's, board games, miniatures - if it's a game, it'll
be at Orbcon!  We also have some special events planned including:

* A Cthulu by candle light event

 * A special Shadowrun event featuring a computerized decking simulator to
allow action to continue while the decker is making a run (great for any
cyberpunk genre game)

And more to come...

We also have an incredible Dealer's Room chock full of gaming goodies that
you won't want to miss!

Prices are as follows.$12.00 until Dec. 31 1996, and $15.00 at the door.
Daily prices are Friday $5.00, Saturday $10.00 and Sunday $5.00.

For more information, see our web page at http://www.marcon.org/orbcon

Orbcon is a not-for-profit gaming convention run %100 by gamers.

        By the beans of java, my thoughts acquire speed
        The hands acquire the shakes, the shakes become a warning
        It is by caffeine alone that I set my mind in motion
