Hi,

The webcam will be up later today, doors to the exhibit hall open at 1pm, so we'll have it squared away by then.

In the meantime, here's a setup pic from yesterday. We've got two televisions on the ends of the booth to run flash demos of our games and three laptops connected to pole-mounted flat panel screens for interactive demos. The enclosed area is our sales area, with lots of our games and our point of sale system. You can see the convention folks hanging up our banners, which we expect will help everyone find us once the hall fills up. [:)]

Regards,

- Erik

Those posters look fantastic [8D]

Any chance that you will be making copies of them and selling them separately to gamers?

Von Rom,

Well, they're 4' x 6', very heavy duty and cost us several hundred bucks each. We're not planning to make them available as a product for sale since the demand I imagine would be extremely small, but we're happy to show them off - they do look fantastic! They will also be at Gencon this year and likely at the World Boardgaming Championships as well.

Regards,

- Erik

Damn wish I could be there to 1. Check out the demos and 2. Meet you lads!

It would be good to meet up with people who are instrumental in bringing out some quality and prob much loved wargames as you gang are turning out. Many here have a lot to thankyou for. SO many games now on your lists that are essential purchases when they arrive. I dont know of many other companies who can attest to this. Most have one big game that people want. You have many games.

That's just it....I'm interested in one or two games here and there at some other companies...but there are 7-8 games publically in development here, at Matrix, that have me interested. Not to mention what may be coming in the future that hasn't been announced yet....

Like when is Paul Vebber going to announce his operational level modern naval sim has graduated from legal pad status to real development ;)

That is a scary looking bunch! I had no idea the guys from Panther were so long in the tooth. Makes me feel young to look at them and I'm 53. [:D]
