Passing this along:

"CaptainCon 2015 will take place Friday, July 17 through Sunday, July 19 in Taunton, Massachusetts - midway between Boston and the Rhode Island border.  Last year was a massive success thanks to our Kickstarter backers and all the people who attended, so we've gotten ourselves a bigger pirate ship with over 9,000 square feet"

I am not yet sure if I can make it, but I know a couple of people looking to start tournaments, including for FS:A!

I would definitely be interested in hitting this up, even if its just for one day. Only issue is that Gwen is due on the 31st, so there is that.

And with twins - especially for the first go around - going in early is very likely.

I know there will be 4 hours of Firestorm: Armada demos being run by klarg1, whom you met once I think.  But also lots of open gaming.

So CaptainCon ended up being quite fun!  Two guys ran four or so hours of FS:A demos, and then over the weekend the four of us ran about eight hours of Dropzone Commander demos!  We also got about half a game of FS:A in before retiring Saturday night.  The con was dominated by the Warma/Hord tournament, but we had a good time.  There will eventually (probably) be some summaries/write-ups/picture galleries from the con on these blogs:
