I went last year and it was a lot of fun.
Be aware this is a miniture wargames con. There wasn't any RPGs. But I'm sure that if someone wanted to run a game it would be welcome.

My review of the 2010 con origionaly posted in NGD
I really couldn't find an appropriate place for this so I'm putting it here.
I went to the battle at the crossroads convention www.battleatcrossroads.com (http://www.battleatcrossroads.com/) in Cambridge Ohio back on Feb 20th. There wasn't any RPG's, but it looked like fun. It was all miniatures games
Admission was $3.00 very good price
Food was tasty and inexpensive. I believe it was one of the organizers wife. $3.00 got a sloppy joe, cookies, bag of chips and a can of soda.
I played a vietnam era air combat game. I don't remember the specific system. I lost both of my planes. pretty fun.
The next game was Sailpower. www.sailpowergame.com (http://www.sailpowergame.com/) You might have seen it at Origins. it's the one with the really cool sailship models in the mini room. I first played it late last year at the Charleston WV game convention back in the fall. www.charcon.org (http://www.charcon.org) I liked it enough to buy the book. The models are a little pricey and out of my range for now but you don't really need them to play. This time I won over all based on points. And as a tourniment winner I've been invited to play in a invitation only game at Origins. If I can make it.
The only downside of the day was the water. It tasted like a swamp. Next time I'll bring my own as I hate buying water.
