So, I plan on going to the three largest Eastern US gaming conventions next year to run a lot of Wyrmstone games. Specifically, I will be going to GenCon, DragonCon, and Origins.
But the big question that I have is this: where would you like to see Wyrmstone? Are there college conventions (like University of Maryland's TerpCon) or others that you would like to see us at? Local cons? Larger cons we've missed? Let us know!

Hey Okies (and/or Wichita guys who want to drive), my August got totally hosed on the gaming front, so I can't schedule a game this month. However, The first weekend in September is Labor Day. Yay! So there's a new event on the calendar.
As Iconic Classes and Specialties have gone the way of the dodo, along with Banned Actions being replaced by Restricted Actions, is there anything else that needs to be updated?

I am in Vegas and up $44 at the Blackjack table. Sadly, despite being in this fantastic city, my thoughts still turn to Wyrmstone. Every Organized Play game has an adventure where gambling is involved. Spymaster has Double Tap. Dawn of Defiance has Queen of Air and Darkness. I've found that most mods in this mold hold a group of uninteresting rolls to determine the winner. How could we spice up Wyrmstone gambling?

I posted on the Crafty Games forum here: http://www.crafty-games.com/forum/index.php?topic=3832.0
After a handful of Wyrmstone games I am feeling that Fantasy Craft combats are not that challenging. The one exception has been running Cleansing of Black Spur (not converted for Wyrmstone, just for pregens) where there was one opponent that had a humongous number of Vitality. Is that the solution to making combat more challenging? Make it longer? Seems like a poor plan.
How are your experiences, playing and GMing, with combat balance and challenge level?
Are species feats from the FC rulebook allowed? Specifically, is Draconic Heritage allowed, provided, of course, that it fits into the character's concept/backstory?
So I saw the giveaway and was very excited, but when I clicked the link it said that relatives of employees couldn't do it. Does that disqualify me then? It's not that I'm mad about it, I would just like to know whether or not I need to save money for a book or not.

Looking at the FC catalog, I saw 2 downloadable (from DriveThruRPG) scenarios - Cleansing of Black Spur and Their Darkest Hour (billed as Copper & Silver scenarios to boot). Are either of these usable as Wyrmstone modules (perhaps with a touch of locale tinkering)?

One of the types of Electrum missions listed are Interactives. I have played many Interactives during Heroes of Rokugan and loved every one. What are people looking forward to doing in a Wyrmstone Interactive?

I have recently become enamored of Veromani. It reminds me so much of Florence in the Medici time period. On a whim, I thought I'd try my hand at a Veromani Mercenary Company, something very much in use during the time of the House of Medici and Machiavelli.

I'm one of the few GMs in my gaming group, so I'm always the one running the games. GMing can be a thankless job, especially in Organized Play campaigns. Something I really appreciate about Wyrmstone (and Spymaster) is that the GM gets a substantial amount of experience when he burns a scenario.
In Spymaster, that really made burning scenarios not a problem. Sure, you can never play that adventure, but at least your character didn't get left behind in power by the others that were able to play. In Wyrmstone, with the addition of treasure and loot (instead of Spycraft's Gear), the GM is really hurt in this regard by burning a scenario. Essentially, he'll never get a chance to get any money or treasure from the adventure.
I have been trying to think of fair ways that this might be avoided,[..]

Species Feats for the Shahani are in place in the Species Apocrypha. But we're looking for a few more. Got a thought? Air it here! Got a beef? Air it here!
hrmm....looking over the allowed races, i was wondering why players couldn't play orcs? most of the other races i get, but i was wondering what the reason might be.
According to your picture of the Wyrmstone worlds there are dragons out between Shahan and The Hollow.

Is that actually just something artistic, or is there some sort of aspect to Wyrmstone that hasn't been revealed yet.

Have people discussed the use of the Spellbound PDFs and the cool specialized casting classes they cover? I am interested in exploring the flavor of the Channeler and others in the context of Wyrmstone.
