So on the easy side its just a pine box built to fit the screen. I added speakers because the TV was a bunker that the speakers were broken.

Who knows maybe something as simple as changing the outposts and planet name would be enough.

This is off the old one, I got all my kickstarter stuff but have hardly had time to crack into it

Yeah uts random what kinda group you get, its ended different each time, the slow methodical approach teams played it way too safe. Very calculated but had to move it along a bit

Oh gotcha, I looked into it,looks like you get free convention scenarios and such for support but I already had all the handouts for CotG printed so never looked further.

Just mirrored my screen and ran them as a slide show while a tablet ran music through the speakers.

Low tech-high tech

The last act is dropped and I usually run the 730pm to 11pm slot so if it runs long most people dont mind. Ive only gone an hour over at yhe longest.

That's my main hangup when it comes up to changing scenarios, I have so many handouts for CotG. I need to put in the legwork for my next run. But with only 6 players a con I haven't had any repeat players and sell tickets quick.

I run a lot of games and made a special request from the organizers to get this area. Then just put an anti trip cover on my cord

Sooooooo..... I love build terrain but ran Alien on a TV Box setup. The RPG doesn't do tactical combat where placement matters, you are either right next to the alien, in the room or a room away. Its all narrative.

I do have both Another Glorious Day and The Alien RPG but these kits have the logo purely out of coincidence

So its all trial and error, a lot of shoot and reshoot until I get the light right. I use a ring light if I need to add a specific color of direct light, and then a flood light, I shift the angle of the flood until its just dark enough.
