You know, I was thinking that BoL's character creation was something that should be showcased.
But I was planning on handing out a list of pre-gen characters to get the game going, and then offer to show anyone who might be interested how to make characters after the game.

One other thing I'd like to ask is this, is there a preference in convention games to run games with or without minis? BoL certainly doesn't need them, but I figure many if not most convention goers will be D&D or Pathfinder players who may be used to playing with them.  

I was checking out the Reaper Miniatures Bones line (very affordable plastic minis) and several of them just screamed Swords & Sorcery so I placed an order for a bunch. Even if I don't use them for the con, I think they'll be nice to have.

 

Any kinda props really spice up a Con game. Having a miniature or a standup mini for each PC is good. Maybe have some sort of bobbles or tokens for the hero points. Gotta have a map on the table. A Gm screen (if you use one) with evocative art. BOL is hard to explain to people; so any art will help.
You know when you say that there are no horses but you can ride a dinosaur it usually confuses players.

LOL!
Yeah, I thought about that.
I figure I'll feature dinosaurs as an element to battle against, but shy away from them as riding mounts.
