Works for me.  Only thing that needs to be accomplished for my game is determining players before GenCon, so that people can get minis if they need them.  After that I'm good starting whenever.

Do we want to still have a game on the 20th, and just do a pickup game or something?

I'm okay.  As Travis said, when we get the players set, we can get characters created and buy mini's at GenCon if needed.

I'm ok if we want to work on characters and do something else.  It'd be nice to be able to talk about what people are building. 

For Travis' game, I expect it makes sense for the new PCs to select the set of starting units.

For Steve's game I'm curious how Aerospace elements will be handled / integrated into standard games.  For units, do the XP expenditures for heavy and assault apply to vehicles and Aerospace fighters as well?

Will there be an option to change the 'Mechs for PCs moving from AR to ID?

Assuming that the characters survive, what are the implications for continuing characters given age?  Yamamori is the youngest PC I believe and he'll be 77 when Klondike starts, though Steve mentioned potentially doing something between the beginning of the Exodus and Klondike, likely the Petagon Civil War.

For Steve's game, should we be looking at a particular Clan for preferred last names for new characters, or at least the bloodlines in general?  It could be helpful for Steve or someone to bring the Klondike book for the bloodnames to the game on the 20th.

I'll post the ID stuff in that thread as it probably makes more sense to answer there than here, but I think all of those questions at a minimum need to be answered before people can finalize characters and unit selection.  The goal being in time to take orders to GenCon.

OK, so:

Effective Immediately: the game on July 20th is a pick-up game day.  Campaign will resume August 3rd.  Steve & Travis will be at the store to answer questions.  Hey Bryan: you've talked about wanting to GM something.  Give us a pick-up game.

My church just moved the administration council meeting to the 3rd, and so I will not be able to be at the game until after the lunch break.  I will get my mini and sheet to someone.

My post-GenCon film shooting schedule was extended by a week yesterday, and now we're filming on the 7th of September.

So, QUICKLY, which date in September can people make more easily?

The 14th, or the 21st?

Rob, honestly?  Neither.  My anniversary is the 15th, my wife's birthday is the 22nd.  The 29th is my son's birthday.  Is early Oct an option if  the 7th won't work?

I won't have any idea until late August, so just go with whatever date works better for everyone else and I'll try my best to make it.

I can do either, but the 21st is slightly superior.

I am not sure about Sept. I have a granddaughter that is turning 18 and so don't know what my wife has set up for that. My wifes birthday is later in the month, so I can count on the weekend of the 21st probably being tied up. The granddaughter birthday is, I believe will be celebrated the 7th weekend. So the 17th.
Side note, Sat. I have to go to IWM at some point. I am getting the DCMS that I shot for Alpha Strike to Southpaw for use at Gencon. He is running some demos of A. S. Waiting to hear back from him.

Due to that whole buying a house thing, September just flat out sucks for me.
