Hey, guess who just bought WOC? Hasbro Interactive. The same people who bought Avalon Hill. At this rate GenCon 2002 should be fun, as it will consist of 20 booths run by a total of three computer companies, plus a marginalized handful of people who sell things that require literacy. And of course 10,000 people who want autographs of assorted celebrities and coudn't care less about gaming.

So I would not worry too much about the RPGA. Seems a lot like rearanging the deck chairs on the Titanic. I think more drastic measures are called for. Exactly what, I have no idea. But I'm sure it would be a really good start if Hero Wars was outstanding. We will soon find out, I guess.
