Entirely devoted to games and gaming, no comics (well, except for a cosplay contest, today and unavoidable feature) and a sprinkle of TV fan club... Organizers claimed 27,000 visitors and surely oin Sunday (the day I went with my fiancee  8)  ) lot of people were there playing  :D

Alas, very little seemed to be dedicated to any vintage games. RPGs are still in the doldrums here  :cry:  The bright spot was L'Era di Zargo, a role playing system based on Original D&D rules set in the Zargo's Lords setting: Zargo's Lords was the very first Italian fantasy game made by the Italian company International Team (Italians love English names for companies  :mrgreen:  )in 1981 (!), now a classic game fetching always high prices. There was a Original D&D Tournament announced but I have no more news.
