The countdown to the opening of New Mexico’s premiere game store began with sponsorship of New Mexico’s Sci-fi Convention Event of the year: Bubonicon 42, themed “Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy.”
Games from the Sci-fi genre play a big role in the Ares Wargames presentation.
Retail manager Rod Hinton was sighted running a Battletech demo at Bubonicon.
Special note: Deathdealer 6 is recruiting Mechwarriors to join the squadron for the upcoming campaign which will be held at Ares Wargames beginning September 25th. No experience required. Watch this blog or follow Ares Wargames on Facebook for more information.
The Bubonicon convention, held August 27-29th at the Albuquerque Grand Sheraton Airport Hotel featured board games and card games including Horus Heresy and others.
While the Ares photographer did not capture all of the interesting vendors, there were sightings of Darkman from Star Trek and Boba Fett from Star Wars.
NOTE: A rumor going around has the Star Wars 501st Legion supporting the grand opening of Ares Wargames!
Volunteers from the Ares team manned the registration booth, served as runners, moved supplies and helped out as needed. Hats off and thank yous to Matt Springer, Ares General Manager and Liam Rapson.
Darth Vader: “No disintegrations.”
Boba Fett: “As you wish.”
