<r>X- Crawl. I'm not a fan of pro wrestling, and the idea of wrestling meets D&D totally turned me off. Long story short, I had the chance to play with the creator of the game Brendan LaSalle at Gen Con a couple years ago and instantly fell in love with the game. I still play every few months an...

You guys had a fantastic booth and everytime I got near it (which unfortunately wasn't often as I was stuck at the FDG booth) you were packed. We tried to talk up C&C to our customers as much as possible and I pulled out my PHB about 35-40 times to show customers.
