The initial hype for the second anual Free RPG day has started. This is an event like Free Comic Book Day where retailers and companies will be offering free RPGs in order to bolster interest in the hobby. Hopefully this year the event won't be limited to the United States only. The news so far: "Impressions Advertising & Marketing has announced the initial list of sponsors for the upcoming Free RPG Day event on Saturday, June 21. The following companies have commited to Free RPG Day 2008: Goodman Games Green Ronin Publishing Mongoose Publishing Pelgrane Press Q-Workshop Skirmisher Publishing Troll Lord Games White Wolf Publishing Wizards of the Coast Each company will be producing unique and never-before-seen product giveaways from current and upcoming RPG lines. The big highlight of the sponsors comes from industry leader Wizards of the Coast, which has commited to three giveaways: a unique D&D 4th Edition adventure, unique adventure tile and unique paint miniature. Several publishers are undetermined as to what they will be giving away, but White Wolf has promised quickstart rules for its new Hunter: The Vigil RPG, Green Ronin has commited to a Song of Fire & Ice Quickplay, while Troll Lord is bringing its previously unannounced new StarSiege RPG in quickplay format. The only thing gamers need to do is find a participating retailer (as they sign up) at www.FreeRPGDay.com. "

I'm not sure if this is available in Canada. Last year it was not.
If it is available we will do it!

Let me know if you do, I will move you over to local events, as well as do some cross pormotional advertising on facebook and such. I would love for something like this to catch on here.

The initial list or retailers is out and it does indeed look like they are all in the US. Why they don't expand this to Canada I have no idea. You can find the initial list here: www.freerpgday.com/stores.htmNote no one in Michigan or Ohio, so this definately isn't local for us.
