Are you a fan of the D&D Adventure League and are planning to participate in DDAL events at this yer's 1d4Con?

Help us bring a D&D Adventure League Global Administrator to 1d4Con 2016:

https://www.gofundme.com/sfm3bsvg

If we can bring him, it opens up these two special events and adds a third benefit:

1) Author Only (DDAO) Adventures

2) Fai Chen's Fantastical Faire: http://dndadventurersleague.org/fantastical-faire/

3) With the opening of D&D Game Master's Guild and Wizards of the Coast charging for each adventure in the new season, there will be a $1 charge to play each Adventure League Game (This is in addition to admission price). If we reach the goal of $1000, then no one will have to pay a fee to play.

Final Reminder:

1d4Con 2016 Pre-registration ends this Saturday, April 9th
http://1d4con.com/preregistration/


Make sure that if you are pre-registered and have processed your payment, that you are also connected to our Warhorn Event:
https://warhorn.net/events/1d4con-2016

If everything is in order, you will be cleared to sign up for games.


Also, if you haven't checked the schedule in a while, we've had some games removed, others added, and even added some panels to check out. There is also a scheduled viewing of Dr. Horrible Sing-A-Long Blog:
https://warhorn.net/events/1d4con-2016/ ... 2016/04/15

Our biggest planned event is for Warmachine/Hordes. If you prefer something more organized where you are take your character from game to game, then check out these events: Vampire/Werewolf LARP, D&D Adventure League, Pathfinder Society, and Greyhawk Reborn. If those aren't your jam, then check out our list of non-organized play traditional RPGs, indie RPGs, and miniature games.

Otherwise we have a big library of games (board games, card games, and dice games: http://1d4con.com/game-library/) available and 4 dedicated Open Play tables.

There is a lot happening and time is running out, so don't miss out!
