BITS: UK Convention Attendance this weekend

[richardtalbotuk]

BITS will be attending two conventions this coming weekend:

Up in the northern sector in Edinburgh, BITS will be attending Conpulsion 09 on both days running a Mongoose Traveller powered RPG scenario - "Masks" in Slot 1 and on Sunday BITS will be helping out with a game of Power Projection running over Slots 4 and 5.

Avenger Enterprises will also be there running games and seminars so it will be a Traveller packed weekend.

Join us at Teviot Row Students Union, University of Edinburgh.

The rather high admission fee is preventing me from joining you at Compulsion...(once you factor in the airfare and all that). But, I would be most interested to hear what you and the other good folks at BITS have planned for the future. Do you ever think of just putting your Convention games in the raw as PDFs off your website? What are the publishing plans for the group? Also, why not do some podcasting by hooking up with some of the other offshoots SFRPGs. I am sure Cthulhu Rising folks will be there with Yog Sothoth folks...maybe if not this year maybe next year have a cross-game collaboration that we could all hear/experience like we were there.

The bits con games are brilliant - I've played most of them over the years. The quality is like that of all their published material which I highly recommend.

"The Angels Share" is a forthcoming 8 part adventure in the style of the traveller adventure - linked scenarios with an overall story arc - which is going to be published in two parts - the first four scenarios with extra side bars, patrons etc will be out quite soon. Proper traveller fare

Thanks for the comments on our convention games - a number of these have made it into print over the years: Spacedogs, Delta 3 Is Down and Cold Dark Grave are all past convention games.

As the previous poster mentioned, we are also converting our series of "In Search of Angels" games into two (or perhaps three) books, of around 144 pages, to be published through Mongoose's Flaming Cobra imprint (with a lot of extra stuff compared to the original convention games). The main delay to this is that I'm changing jobs and also doing a lot of deckplans for Mongoose at the moment...

We do have other convention games which we may publish either in our "little white book" format, or as a larger compendium in the future.

I'd love to get more products out, but life keeps intervening...

I played Delta 3 is down at travcon a couple of weeks ago and it was absolutely fantastic,a great role play section and a great action section. All my trav buttons pressed.

Hi Andy,
I just wanted to ask (again ) if there are any plans for any
more 101 books (my personal favourites)

I know I heard a rumour about a possibe 101 guns book, I would love to see more of those little gems (heck, I'd especially love to try and add something in one of them)
