Special Report: Agent Cells Located!

International Intelligence – Sacramento Control Special Report:

Three Special Agent cells have been located! The agents in these cells will aid in our  mission to locate Agent 66.

Dossiers for all Special Agents in these three cells will be released shortly. Be on the look out!

Mission Briefing: Eyes Only

International Intelligence’s Sacramento Control (Westercon) was hacked.

The intrusion was detected and repelled, but not before important personnel and mission records were destroyed.

Our biggest loss? Agent 66.

Agent 66 was sent out into the field in July of 2011, with instructions not to check back in until July 7, 2013. Our best deep-cover agent, Agent 66 could be anyone. Without the missing records, we have no way to initiate contact.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find Agent 66. Agent 66 must return to Westercon at the Hilton Arden West in Sacramento, on July 4, 2013.

Find the answer to the most important question there is: Who is Agent 66?

Hotel Announcement!

(blare of interstellar trumpets)

Westercon 66 is pleased as punch to announce that we have our hotel!

We will inhabit time and space July 4th-7th, 2013, in the Hilton Arden West, located only minutes from the state capitol and Old Town. Early arrivals will have fireworks aplenty to ooh and aaaah at! The ginormous Arden Fair Mall awaits your shopping pleasure equally nearby, in case you need a final touch for your hall costume, or just want to check out the enormity of it.

Room pricing is a simple $109/room/night, regardless of size. Parking is complimentary. The hotel is non-smoking, and offers wi-fi, as well as all of the function space we need!

Of course, we’re still over a year out, so the rooms aren’t available yet for reservation, but now you know where you’re going to hang your hat, or helmet.

Start making your plans to get to Westercon 66 – it’s gonna be awesome!

Gallifrey!

Yep, it’s con time again! This weekend Westercon 66 will be at the long-running and infamously fun Gallifrey One!

Look for our fan table – you can register if you haven’t all ready! And, of course!, we will be having a party. Stay tuned for details.
