Elf Lair Games

10/22/2025

It's been a scramble since things fell apart with Gary Con, folks, but I'm pleased to announce that Elf Lair Games will be appearing at EGG Con in July, and I (Jason) will also be announced as a special guest there! I'm very much looking forward to attending this small convention right on Lake Geneva! I hope some of our fans can come join us!

Early badge and Passport pickup will be from 5:00pm until 8:00pm on Wednesday, July 15th at CON Registration in Harbor Shores on Lake Geneva.

Well, folks, it looks like Elf Lair Games will NOT be at Gary Con this year. This is heartbreaking, but I was shunted to a waiting list after having a presence there the past two years in a row. When I inquired why, I got a repsonse that:

1. had a lie in it (claiming Pick Up & Go Games made a special request for us to get a booth last year - that DID NOT HAPPEN, though I did collaborate with them the past two years)
2. Listed sugar-coated platitudes like "other companies that have never been here before deserve a chance." Read: "companies with bigger names that are more prestigious than you."
3. "We had to cut [more than] 10% due to changes in the guaranteed booth space for sponsorship tiers" Read: Other people with more money than you are being given tons of space, so it was nice knowing you, kid.
4. "Believe me, I WISH we could give you space based on your presence here before." No, no, you don't. If you did, you would.
5. "We know how important Gary Con is to small companies who need a chance...that's why we DO what we do." So...why am I on a waitlist, then?
6. "You're exactly the kind of retailer we WANT to see get a chance!" Really? THEN GIVE ME A BOOTH.

Then he had the gall to say he hopes I'll continue to come to the con. Anyway, I guess that's that. If I somehow get offered a booth, We may appear. Other than that, it's been fun.

I'm probably going to try to appear at PAGE in Philly in 2027 (I'll be there with Troll Lord Games in 2026). There's a local con or two here I'll look into. If I can work up to it, maybe Origins, but that's expensive.

I'm sorry to have to deliver this announcement. I always look forward to seeing everyone. Hopefully something changes. I'll keep you all posted.

So I just joined Medium as an experiment. Published a piece of fiction I've been sitting on that I wasn't sure what to do with. Take a look, give me a thumbs up or clap or whatever they do over there. It would mean a lot. I understand after I do a bit of writing here I can start monetizing, so...

Hey, folks, if you're looking for something to read, Bill is a FANTASTIC author. He wrote the intro fiction and one of the mini-settings in Thirteen Parsecs and that doesn't even touch on his illustrious career as a primary writer for Palladium Books back in the day. He's got a new superhero novel on Kickstarter right now and he deserves your support. Help him out if you can!

In Hudson City, hero Praetorian, burdened by 75 years of sacrifice, dares a villain to trigger a quantum doomsday device.

Mirrors are mysteriously vanishing from public spaces all over the city. People are suddenly finding their memories fractured and beset by dreams of a strange, fractured world with sickly yellow skies where shadows move against the laws of physics. The party is hired by a Joanna Oddmuth, wealthy collector to discover what's going on and, if possible, recover a very precious antique mirror that vanished from her collection. An underground artist collective claims the mirrors are “portals for the Veiled," and a dark force is on the rise, seeking to merge two worlds together.

Can you stop the cult of the Yellow Sign from unleashing a sorcerous apocalypse that will hearken the rise of Carcosa on Earth? It's all up to YOU with the first of our Single Page Scenarios for Night Shift®: Veterans of the Supernatural Wars!
