Hmmm. Mebbe if all us Matrix Fanboys (Fangirls as applicable) had an official flyer with some detail and webinfo that we could print out and drop off at the local hobby-shop (where the "opponents wanted" and "microarmour for sale" flyers live)? I'd planned to demo SPWAW at a local game convention this spring (but due to mispatching/version conflicts on the boxes I was using, didn't get to do it), and have had people ask what I wa splaying at LAN-game rooms at other cons... gameshops with compter availability and dedicated LAN-gamer joints are less likely to work, but a quick black'n'white flyer can go a looooong way. (I'm thinking the American Eagle shop in Seattle at the mo' - loads of RPGs/wargames, models, racks and racks of Osprey and suchlike guides, and two long multishelve units full of assorted military reference books.) They're havaing a wargaming thing (con? I'd have to find the flyer) realsoonnow, and I bet if someone local were willing to drag in a computer or two to demo, it'd fly...(I'm the other side of the state, so... ) Hell, just dropping off a stack of flyers at the local science-fiction convention would be a good idea; you're out paper'n'ink, and Matrix may get some biz, and if you're lucky you might find someone new locally to play with. Cannae hurt, eh? Second-level note: those demo-monkeys with CD-burners might think of making a few copies of the most/more recent SPWAW package (*not* the MegaCampaigns!) and mebbe War in Russia as an option, for "cost of the disk" distribution. (If that... *I* can afford to give out some freebies - "first taste is free, kid". ) It's up the flagpole, folks - weapons free!
