Seeing as this is my first PAX, I don't have any first hand experience and wanted to know ahead of time: How extensive is the non-video-gaming presence at PAX? I don't really need any full-on role playing, since there's really not enough time for that over the time I'll be there and I haven't RPed in forever anyway, but board and card games with new people could be a very welcome experience. I've seen the thread about Munchkin, which sounds awesome, but I was also wondering about CCGs as well as things like Arkham Horror, etc.
Please give me happy answers. :P

It's a very nice strategy Civ-like kinda game, for 3 to 8 players. Games can last anything from 3 hours to 8-9 tops :P
Accelerate!
Please don't go. The drones need you. They look up to you.
I like the TI expansion, makes the game much more...confrontational.

So, anyway, is there enough space at PAX? I remember that at the Gen-Con there is this guy from FFG who sets up 12 (!) player matches of TI3. (But going there is for my -next- trip to the US XD )

I'm sure though, if you post what you're interested in there will be several people who are willing to play.
Hell, if you bring it, they will come.
And I'm sure that one of the girls I'm bringing would be willing to throw down on anything you bring

Oh, and now that you mention it, I've got my Legend of the Five Rings CCG deck and my "Brotherhood" VS System deck somewhere...
Maybe I should bring Starcraft the boardgame too? hehe

Haha, not with my group playing. I take great personal pride in my Monster Bag, and an equal amount of pride playing Diana Stanley any chance I get.
I'm personally hoping to get a game of Middle Earth at least once over PAX.
Met some awesome people, but god damn, learning it was a bitch.

Probably option B.
Ca$h and Gun$ or something similiar to that
You sir... are getting a beer from me if you want it.
Ca$h 'n Gun$ is a fun game. I gave it as a bday present to a friend several months ago.
You'll see people dive into the fray XD

More like this.
Ooh, those are the Nerf six-shooters, right? I think I saw those somewhere... it looked really neat.
They are not the neatest thing that NERF has done, but they are cool. Too bad there is the No-NERF policy at PAX. Oh well, that gives me more time to fine-tune the new rules.
I think it's just to limit the possibility of incidents occuring, given the # of people and whatnot.
I remember hearing a story that during the setup at the old building that somebody shot a nerf into the ceiling and they had to get one of those portable electric lift thingys to get it down.
Regardless, it would be better if we didn't take each other's eyes out at PAX, and I'm not sure other attendees would be too happy to get caught unwillingly in the crossfire.
Also: If I brought nerf for security, it would be my Longshot. That sucker stings.
That being water balloons that don't break.
Dern... Thanks for the heads-up, Qs23... I was planning on bringing a mod'd Mav to PAX as part of my cosplay, without that knowledge... It will have to do outside the enclosed festivities!
Yar, VThorn... Like Qs noted, likely not the "neatest" thing Nerf's put out, but, I could see it being that with the most impressive or surprising potential, heh. Regarding their shooting capability: unmodded, they can shoot roundabout 25 feet, and 35+ modded (I've read).
If you know a place, I am there.
