town. We will have all of the Year Eight Core mods (including the Core

Living Campaign Special Sessions!!!
There's a special 1-hour Q&A session about the new upcoming Living
Forgotten Realms campaign (LFR) with a global admin and some of the
Southeast Regional staff on Saturday night. (Click
here for details.) This is a great chance to learn a little
more about what you can expect from LFR and talk to the people that
matter about what you want from LFR.
There's
a special 1-hour Q&A session about the hot new Witch
Hunter:Dark Providence campaign (WH:DP) with one of the setting authors
and one of the campaign module authors. (Click
here for details.) Have a rules question? Wonder why
certain rites or talents work the way they do? Curious about
what's in store for WH:DP for 2008? Come and find out!
Location
EconoCon will be
in a new location this year. We're going to be at the Holiday Inn
Select in Norcross. This place is a nicer hotel (with an indoor pool
and jacuzzi, and a bar in the hotel). It also has much less traffic.
It's in the northeast part of Atlanta on Peachtree Industrial
Boulevard. There are plenty of places to eat nearby.
