Howdy folks! That's right....not only is the Wyrd Blackfridaythanksgivingholidaywyrdbirthdayapalooza happening next week. But, registration for the Midwest's coolest miniature gaming convention opens on Monday November 21 at 8pm CST. I have assembled a fantastic team of Tournament Organizers for this year and we have a huge amount of Wyrd stuff for you all to do this year:

1) Meet and Greet and Cake Match: We always start Adepticon with a party. This is it. All day Thursday we have our gaming tables setup for open play as well as our Cake Match. That's right...we said cake. The cake is real. We encourage everyone to get their baking on and bring their tastiest baked goods for the judges to test their endocrine systems in an attempt to find the BEST CAKE of 2017! Malifaux themes are encouraged and awarded points for theme. But, taste is the real deal.

2) Costume contest: like to get your cosplay on? Every day, I will select the best Malifaux themed costume I see that day to come back Sunday and compete for cheers from the crowd in order to select the winner. Want to stand the best chance? Bring a costume for each day. Team tournament also has an award for costumes this year.

3) Gaslight Achievement League: The scavenger hunt of AdeptiCon. Lots of achievements to check off your list. Some serious. Some goofy. Some challenging. Some easy. Every Wyrd game you participate in counts towards the Achievement list.

4) Henchman Hardcore: HH format makes it's return this year on Thursday afternoon. Do you thnk you know the best Henchman team? Come find out! Justin Dexter will make sure you guys have a great time.

5) Enforcer Brawl: another new addition last year makes it's return. One model. Everyone can do that right? But, which is the greatest Enforcer out there? Better bring your best! Victoria Myer Hrenda is the Stadium master for this event

6) Through the Breach One Shots: Making it's inaugural debut at AdeptiCon. That's right. We are bringing Roleplaying to AdeptiCon. We will have a different One Shot adventure each day. So, if you have wanted to try it out, now is your chance.

7) Team Tournament: A favorite of AdeptiCon. Find a buddy and team up against the toughest competition out there. Make your weirdest or cheeziest combo and see how it stacks up. Cheryl and Kevin Kucharski are teaming up to make sure this event challenges everyone. More info can be found on the Team Tournament Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/245375925877815/?ref=group_browse_new

8) Master of Malifaux Tournament: A big draw for Malifaux at AdeptiCon. The first North American big event. This is the event for those looking to test their Master mettle against the heavy hitters of North America. Bret Rice and John Hartigan are heading the big daddy of AdeptiCon.

9) Story Encounter: Tired of heavy competition on Sunday? Looking to just have some fun playing original strategies written with a theme before heading home? This is the event for you. Joe Deheve is penning the tales to tantalize you again this year.

10) Demos, Demos and more demos!: We have have every game that Wyrd produces for you to try out in the Malifaux Hall. So, stop on by and give Evil Baby Orphanage, Showdown Icons, Jetpack Unicorn, Puppet Wars, Through the Breach, Malifaux, or Darkness Comes Rattling a try.

11) Wyrd Booth: Wyrd will once again be joining us in the vendor hall. Stop by their booth and say hey to the Wyrd crew that joins us this year. Oh and make sure to pick up the latest release for your games ;)

12) Cool Wyrd Folk: Not sure who will be joining us from Wyrd yet. But, in the past we have had Kelly, Aaron, Mason and others from staff no longer with the company (hey Drew! Hey Zee!) hang with us and share insight into the games and the company and just have some laughs. 

13) Prize Support: Each year we have great sponsors. Prize support has come from great companies like : Wyrd (of Course!), Knuckledusters Miniatures, Angry Mojo, Mats By Mars, Dice Dojo, Games Plus, KR MultiCase, Secret Weapon Miniatures and many more.

Ticketing has changed this year. The weekend ticket has dropped in price! This is due to the swag bag now being an add-on item rather than an auto include for the first 1000. There are still a limited number of swag bags and they are still worth far more than the cost. Also, the ticketing system has been improved so if an items sells out before completing checkout it does not make you start from scratch. The items that are still available will be charged and your order completed. You can then go back in and fill gaps. Items do sell out fast. So, make sure to jump in early and register fast for the items you absolutely want to get in on and then go back and figure gap fillers out when you have more time.

Whew! That really is a lot when you list it all out like that. And there even some other companies that have stuff going on and awesome hobby seminars. 4 days of awesome! Come join us.
