[Deptheads] Ted Alspach is a go for Gateway 2011

[Eric Burgess]

We got ourselves a third Guest of Honor for Gateway 2011. As requested, I
reached out to Ted Alspach and he's thrilled to come down. This is a nice
one, too, because he usually goes to PacifiCon that weekend.

Ted is well-known as a board game designer who also does unique maps of Age
of Steam, has published cool versions of Werewolf (Ultimate Werewolf) and
has done a lot of party and light euro games. He will be bringing a bunch of
his Essen releases which should excite the rail game, party and euro game
fans. We're working out his effect on our Werewolf schedule in particular -
we'll probably want to extend it, which will be fun in particular light of
the conversation we've had recently about family games.

Ted is also the author of a popular eurogame cartoon called "Board 2 Pieces"
and he is willing to provide cover/t-shirt art for our convention booklet.
He'll come up with a witty cartoon unique to Gateway 2011. Hopefully,
that'll be a fun way to define this show. You can see more at his Board 2
Pieces website or the Bezier Games site (also his). Three Sages sells his
games exclusively at the con, too.

We're sorting out his schedule now and I'll send more details when they
become available.
