Anyone else going to this show. It's in its second year and it was a fair alternative for me from GenCon since it was local

They have a good assortment of game companies.

I really enjoyed myself at this show. It's not quite at GenCon level but it was still  really good! I went all three days but on Sat I also went with a group of friends all of whom have not gone to any other type of convention so it was fun watching that.

[member=314]Transmute Jun[/member]  I picked up a few games while I was there
Gather Round Games - Someone Has Died - You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login
TMG - Ghosts in the Moor (pre-release; game technically comes out in February) - You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login (their other game Steam Works is a favorite of mine)
AEG - War Chest - You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login
AEG - Custom Heroes (this is the game the creator of Mystic Vale wanted to make first) - You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login
Archon Games - Eschaton (plus expansion) - You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

I did want a few more but was trying to stay inside a budget!

Sounds like you got a good haul! I have PAx on my bucket list but haven't made it to one yet. If I did go to one, I would prioritize the shows that offer True Dungeon,

there was so much more i wanted to buy but I did it - I stayed within my budget. Though now I am thinking about 1 smaller game I didn't buy. Though I do have the Sideshow Project Raygun Court of the Dead Mourners Call Kickstarter coming soon as well so we shall see

This isn't as helpful for newer games, but keep an eye on Amazon. They have had a number of rotating discounts on games. My husband has picked up about 10 new ones since BF at 30%+ off each.
