The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

I'm running games at Dundracon (Feb 18th-21st) in San Ramon, CA and panel discussions and games at SpoCon (Aug. 12th-14th) in Spokane, WA. Just wanted to see how many Marines will be in attendance at either of these conventions.

I would go to the one in San Ramon but it is a good 300+ mile drive each way for me.

I empathize. It's 765 each way for me. Still, if you can make it, the game should be a loud one.

No way on 10 Miles Per Gallon and 3.50 per gallon that would be well over 200 bucks to drive each way(which would also be bout the same to fly it) .Sorry man maybe if I ever get a 2nd car that is friendly on gas I'll drive out that way.

Wow! Dundracon...haven't thought of that in years. Used to go every year. It still at the Dunfrey Hotel? What's the costuming like there? Years ago, I just went for D&D minis... Not too far away for me, about 1.5 hrs.

It's at the San Ramon Marriott. I've always done straight table top gaming, so I couldn't tell you much about costuming there. Great place for games.

At the Marriott-it must have expanded pretty well! Yeah, the gaming part of it is outstanding, it'd be great if it's also got some costuming included now too!

I live in Puyallup WA (western WA). SpoCon might be doable. What kind of a con is it? I'm not into gaming.

It's a sci-fi/fantasy fandom convention. They haven't announced the whole line up yet, but they often have some pretty big names as guests.
