    Default Origins 2017

    June 14th to 18th in Columbus Ohio,

    LINK: Origins Game Fair

    Perhaps some of these?

    Or others like it? How many people participate in Origin games? Would printing up a bunch through an online print service help?

    PrinterStudio.com - Personalized Mini-European Playing Cards

    Like the WGS Damage Cards from this thread: Want Damage Cards Instead of Chits

    If there are a lot of people playing, this would be the way to go, printing up a deck with 30-ish Participation cards, and a few Ace, Bullet Magnet, Victim cards per deck.

    Just thinking out loud.

    Mike... I have some things brewing right now for the 'Drome's participation in Origins 2017. We will have to talk soon, as I like this idea!

    Fantastic card work, Mike.
    Will the former participants be allowed to get one of these?

    Ken, I would like to run a game or three at Origins next year. Please include me in the scheduling of games.

    I'll also be looking for a room-mate as I'll be flying solo this year. If anyone else is attending and looking to share a room get in touch.

    Peter you are already on my list. Look for a private message in the next few days. You might want to check with Maverick about sharing a room. I know he is coming in but can't say for sure but he doesn't want a room all to himself.

    Thanks for the heads up on ORIGINS. I have to check with the base commander (wife) but I think she will up be for this. Went to the one when Andy was there so has been a few years. We usually go to the Reading air show that same weekend but have done that for 5 years and she would rather do something else.

    Well have made reservation at the Sheraton even though a few blocks away. To see old friends, even though met you all one time in person, will be special. My other excuse is that I lost all my pictures of the AF Museum. Looking forward to seeing all of you again.

    Repeat posting of the Participation Card on this thread (Link: Origins 2017 - Schedule of Games), cause I forgot about this one.

    But there are some sample Ace Skill Cards on that post, and there is a Sails of Glory card in my album (Link:Sails of Glory.org - OldGuy59's Card Album) on the Sails site, for any who are part of that Forum.

    Thanks for bringing this back to the fore, Mike! I must admit I had forgotten about it

    Just got home last night. Had a great time, though my games fell short on attendance
    I was great seeing all the 'Drome mates again, though we were missing a few.
    Meeting Simon (Maverick) was simply wonderful.
    details later when I get some more sleep
