Arcane Legions a Hit at Penny Arcade Expo 09!

Arcane Legions at PAX 09

September 9, 2009 (Bellevue, WA) — Wells Expeditions™ made a strong showing at PAX 09 with the upcoming Arcane Legions mass action miniatures game! 

Garnering even the attention of Penny Arcade's founders, Gabe and Tycho (Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins), Arcane Legions was a huge hit at PAX this year, especially notable considering the main focus of the show, unlike most fan conventions across the country, is not on tabletop games or comic books.

With our banners unfurled and demo tables arrayed at the booth, we surprised PAX's crowd with a game that was both new and extremely exciting, needing nothing more than a table and a friend to play with.  We carried the full line of Arcane Legions' initial release, including Starters, Army Packs, and Boosters, all of which flew off the shelf at an astounding pace!

Could it have had something to do with our outstanding booth staff, decked out in the finest in Roman and Egyptian fashion? 

We here at Wells Expeditions were also surprised by the level of excitement shown by the visitors to the booth.  For a convention full of video game players there sure seemed to be plenty of hardcore tabletop gaming fans in attendance as well, and what they saw, they loved!  

All weekend long we attracted current tabletop fans as well as people young and old brand new to the genre.  PAX's Free Play Halls were filled up for the entire convention with players ravenous for more Arcane Legions warfare. Be sure to visit www.arcanelegions.com for the latest developments as we near the product's worldwide release date of October 7, 2009!
