I didn't play in any RM games last year but I did the year before and I really enjoyed both games. Didn't you run one of those RM games that year?

Yup, you had played in one of the games I ran the year before last. I was thinking that Cory Magel may have been in that game as well (or maybe it was the later game).
I'm almost tempted to run the second part (first short adventure) to the No Quarter Under the Crown campaign module that I'm writing this year, but would need to provide a modest bit of background (which the characters would learn in the first part (a social interaction encounter might be the best way to describe it, along with some travel)) for its full impact to be understood.
Bruce, if you go are you planing to run some HARP games again?
Would also be nice if we can ever pull the ICE fans together like what was done a couple of years ago (unfortunately the people I went down with had to get back early, so I missed it). It was unfortunate that we were not able to work things out last year with everyone's schedules.
Wolfhound:
Oh, and while I can't speak for ICE/GCP regarding their attendance, the vendor booth selections for the Entrepreneurs Alley area have not yet been decided/awarded by GenCon. So I would imagine that they (ICE) are probably waiting to hear if they can even get a booth yet. Although I think that info should be coming out within the next week or two if memory serves me correctly.
bpowell:
I will be attending with my wife and a few friends. I would love to meet anyone involved with ICE and Rolemaster.
Wolfhound:
Looks like the company that I'm helping to mange that took up most of my time last GenCon isn't going to ahve any product ready to sell at this GenCon (the other members are not getting the things done quick enough for us to have any products available by then), so I am officially throwing my hat into the ring to run 6 sessions of Rolemaster (RMU) at GenCon.
My current plan is to run three sessions in the evening on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings (from 6:00 or 7:00 pm to around Midnight or 1:00 am, 6 hours total) in which I will be running the Dún Crú module that I wrote for GCP nearly a decade ago, but updated to the RMU rules set.
And another 3 sessions in the morning on Thursday, Friday and Saturday (probably from 9:00 am to 12:00, 3 hours long) of an early part of the "No Quarter Under the Crown" campaign module that I'm currently writing for ICE/GCP, also using the RMU rules set.
Both sets of adventures will have pre-generated characters for players to choose from, and will be intended both as an intro to the RMU rules systems (if anyone signs up that hasn't played before) and as a way to raise awareness of those two products.
Times and days are not finalized yet, but that is my current plan and what I'm trying for.
Bruce:
I was hoping that ICE would have a booth this year but I guess not due to their silence on this thread.
I may or may not be going this year. Money is a real issue so getting a badge is a big factor right now. I am thinking of taking up an offer from a friend to run games for another company. They purchase your GM's badge and everything, but we'll see what happens over the next few months.
