FFG's 2009 convention schedule

By Scubadude, in UFS General Discussion

Ok so we got gencon pinned down so that is all good . However I was a little worried about US Nationals since Origins is a convention I am just wondering are we still having it at Origin's?

Or are we simply only getting Steve , James, and Paul like last year when only Steve and Ledezma were there ?

I guess either way I will be asking this on monday when we record our march SOTG.

Unconventional

thanks chris.

Also for personal and fanboyish question if you can ask what costume is the new tira gonna have. the sexy black one with pig tales or the other one I would apreciate it. gran_risa.gif

Please note - I am answering this only on personal speculation, and not in any sort of an official capacity.

I would suspect that Origins is still going to be the site of the US Nationals.

White Wolf is also not having a presence at Origins, but they are moving the V:TES US Nationals there from Gencon.

What that official Schedule means is those are the shows that FFG is going to show up to with a full booth and product.

You don't need a trade booth and product to be able to run a major event. (See Canadian Nationals for the last two years.)

I remember when Comic Images was contemplating dropping their booth at Origins. They were still going to run Raw Deal Events, just not have a booth.

Speaking as someone who has talked to folks throughout the industry, many of the folks that you see at Origins you will also see at Gencon. There is a tremendous expense for companies to put on booths at shows like Origins, and quite often the returns don't justify the placement of the booth.

So keep in mind, the announcement doesn't mean they won't be running any events. They just won't be there with an official booth presence.

FFG didn't have a booth at Origins last year.
