GM: Dana Betts Mega Civilization, a huge version of the legendary development game Civilization, is a game of skill for 5 to 9 players covering the historical development of ancient civilizations from just after the last Ice Age to the dawn of the new era at the end of the Iron Age — a time span of almost 8,000 years.

Hey all! Yes you read that right. Impossible Realities Gaming and Cosplay Convention has been around for TWENTY FIVE YEARS. It all started when Dana Betts, Eric Merzetti, Matt Mazerolle and Melissa Woodcock dreamt up the idea for a not-for-profit sponsored gaming focused event to support all the regional gaming stores and other cons, with a smaller more intimate event in mind to keep venue costs to a minimum, which in turn meant the door cost stayed low for the players. All games were run BY volunteer gamers FOR gamers. Our numbers over the years have gone up and down, and players have grown up, moved on, had kids, got their degrees, and now their kids are coming to play. Execs have rotated in and out, but our passion remained. While we aren't big and flashy and having hundreds or thousands of visitors, our small format meant we could keep doing this without worries, and PLAY GAMES with prizes and game giveaways from our sponsors.
