  • Introducing: The Aftershock Quick Sale Table!

    Introducing: The Aftershock Quick Sale Table!

    “Staffer Steve” here, and I have two questions for you…

    #1. Do you have any board games or RPG books you’ve been meaning to let go of?

    #2. Would you like to help the Nuke-Con?

    If you answered yes to both questions, well my fellow Nuke-Head, have I got some good news for you!

    We’re trying something new at the May Aftershock by hosting a sale of “gently used” board games and RPG books. So, if you have such items that you’d like to donate, bring them with you to the May Aftershock, and we’ll take care of the rest!

    On the other hand, for those of you looking to buy board games or RPG books at reasonable prices, then the May Aftershock is also for you!

    It’s a win for everyone as the donators will get back some storage space, the game collectors will get games at good prices and all proceeds will help Nuke-Con fund future events!

    So stop by the registration desk to drop off your donations and/or purchase donated items at the Nuke-Con Quick Sale Table. It’s as simple as that! 

    See you at the Aftershock!

  • Return of the Aftershock

    Return of the Aftershock

    Staffer Steve here, and I…

    Wait… do you feel that?

    I haven’t felt one of these in over two years!

    THE AFTERSHOCKS HAVE RETURNED!

    For those you new to the sensation of an Aftershock, allow me to explain…

    Periodically, Nuke-Con arranges for one-day special game events, known as “Aftershocks”, which are held at locations around the Omaha area.

    Related: Aftershock Game Days

    They have returned… and our first Aftershock in over two years is taking place at the Holy Cross Lutheran Church!

    We will need GM’s! We will need game hosts! And we will need gamers… so many gamers!

    We will have board games! and tabletop RPGs! and miniatures!  Bring your friends!  Everybody is welcome!  We must all Escape Reality, one game at a time!

    The Aftershock happens May 27th, 2023 at 10AM and goes to 10PM, for twelve hours worth of Escaping Reality.

    Get your tickets at the door for $5 per person for the entire day (or take $1.00 off with a donation of two cans of food for the church’s food pantry)!

    I’ll see you there!

    UPDATE: I just received word that Nuke-Con artist extraordinaire Fredd Gorham will be hosting an Artist Jam at the Aftershock, so we’re calling all artists to the event!
