KapCon X

KapCon X was held in the Northland Community Hall in Wellington, NZ over Wellington anniversary weekend (January 20th & 21st) 2001.

The turnout was the highest ever, with 55 people attending over the course of the weekend. The format was slightly different from previous years, with a mix of three and four-hour slots and only four main gaming sessions, with a LARP and final impromptu session taking up the extra time.

Despite this, more games were run than in 2000 - 29 games, and about 24 scenarios, not including the impromptus. Call of Cthulhu was once again the preferred system, but the visiting RPGA delegation made D&D 3rd edition a strong contender; other systems included Blue Planet, WHFRP, Shadowrun and Traveller, plus the usual assortment of systemless and homebrewed games.
