If you are then Captain Pump and his band of merry Raiders have got just the event for you!

Wednesday, 08.28.14 in the middle of Burning Man, deep in the dust at 4:15 and Antioch from 10 AM to 10 PM you can participate in what is (as far as we know) an event unlike any seen before in the history of Burning Man....

What's that you say?

RAIDER-CON 2014

Yes, you heard it right here ladies, gentlemen and all points inbetween or beyond, you can come play interesting, fun and challenging role playing games with friends and or strangers in the middle of your burning man experience.

We're still working out the final details, but so far it looks like we'll have the following games:
Paranoia,
Call of Cuthulu (done with Jenga)
My Little (Sparkle) Pony Adventures
and many many (okay, just a few) more.
We're gonna run 3 slots during the day, so no need to commit yourself to 12 hours of a game, but we sure hope you're having so much fun that you decide to anyway.

More details will be posted once our games list is finalized.

To be clear to everyone, this is a con devoted to Tabletop Role Playing Games.

No video games, no one in our camp even has a generator.
We considered board/card games but decided that there was too much moop involved.
We're finalizing our game list right now, once that is done I'll post the games we'll have available for play.

Alright, I'm going to have to have get some plywood, glue and sacrifice a set of Munchkin and or cards against humanity. Sure it'll be a cumbersome card game but it might not blow away.

Lost Days of Memory and Madness: Fall of the Elven Empire
The Elven Empire sits in its golden age. The elves, arrogant and ruthlessly powerful, have forced all others to kneel or be ground into dust. From the center of the Empire rules the King and his Eternal Court. But their hubris has already planted the seeds that will blossom into the destruction of the Empire and the fall of the elves. This is that story.

I'm sorry if your favorite game is not represented, but we hope you'll come join us to play something else.
