I was looking to attend the NOVA Open this year, which is a decent sized con on the East Coast right outside of DC. When I was checking the list of games that will have tornys at the con this is what I saw:

FFG Games:

Armada, SW Destiny, SW Imperial Assault, L5R, SW Legion, SW X-wing

Obscure Games:

Beyond the Gates of Antares?, Dark Age, Konflict 47?, Deep Wars?, Wrath of Kings

Not Present:

Runewars

I know there has been alot of doomsday talk but when you see something like this I dont know how you can have an optimistic view of this games future. Id like to say that the con supports the games that are popular in the area but I live within 30mns of the con and I have never even heard of Deepwars or Beyond the Gates of Antares. It really seems odd that a con that supports so many FFG games and also quite a few obscure games wouldnt have Runewars. Needless to say im extremely disappointed.

I selected Runewars over Wrath of Kings because I thought that the support and player base would be immensely better. I am not entirely amused
