Supporting the OSR (Sell me your game!!)

This link is making the rounds of Facebook right now, it is a good read and I am sure we have all been in the author's or the father's place before.

Which go me thinking...

I like supporting the OSR.  Sure, I have bought the "same rules" dozen of times over now which would be under other circumstances insane.

Anyway not trying to ramble here (oops, failed that one so far) but I guess here is where I am at.

I plan on showing my support of the OSR at Gen Con again this year in the best way I know how.
With money.

The second way I know how is talking about it here.

So...If you are selling anything for the OSR or related products (like say dice bags with the OSR logo) at Gen Con then tell me here!  Go ahead and post something below.

IF you are not selling something at Gen Con, that's cool, post here too.  Let me know about your Kickstarter too.

I am not promising I will buy your product, I am promising though I will buy something posted here.
I'd like to buy it at Gen Con direct from you if I can.  Failing that I'll buy it from my FLGS.

Help me help you.

This might be a "pie-in-the-sky" type of project I am currently trying to get together, still in the very beginning of the writings stages. But here we go:

I am thinking of trying to make a collection of rules from Original to 2E, with a liberal dose of blogger house rules thrown in. Still working on what would be legal, but I would also be giving a world in which I use said rules.

At the moment, it is called the Sydell Project.

Weird Adventures will be on sale at Gen Con.

Can't afford table space at Gencon, but I sell Labyrinth Lord adventures via RPGNow. I am running the games as a sort of advertisement at Gencon, though.

@ Trey. Cool! Where?

@ Digital Orc. I wanted to get into some LL games, but I couldn't.

I should pick up LL with the "new" covers, but I like my purple one.

At the OSR Group Booth. Where else?

ASE1 wil also be there, and maybe ASE23 if I finish it on time.

Redwald: 4 new magic systems, 12 new classes, and other alt rules. Not finished yet, but it could still do with some OSR support and the playtest version is free and can be found here . . .
