40K RPG cancellations....?

By kwinland, in Fantasy Flight Games Gen Con Experience

Howdy,

Did anyone else notice the large number of 40K RPG cancellations at GenCon. I was at first surprised at the HUGE number of Dark Heresy, Rogue Trader, Deathwatch, Black Crusade and Only War games being run, and had a bunch of generic tickets for my friend and I to get in to a few.

Sadly, a large number were cancelled, and the remaining games were either filled or GM no-shows. Does anyone know the story?

Cheers,

Ken

I was at a cancelled Black Crusade game and was one of three players who showed up. If we could have gotten generics, I would have run the module, but no one was interested.

I'm not sure why this happened but FFG seems pretty determined to have more volunteers for next year. I got the card for Jaffer Batica, an FFG event co-ordinator, so I might contact them for next year.
