Re: [GZG] Epic Carrying Case
Seems to me that the thing to convert would be a large sailboat. Cheap to operate (not a lot of fuel even when you use the diesel), air conditioning, large swimming pool, and so on. Let's the convention be internationally portable and the convention could then add 'sandy beaches and fruity rum drinks' to its list of offerings.
The only downside is that in bad weather, there'd be some real fog of war as the miniatures randomly changed positions on the boards (as did the terrain, dice, and anything else not nailed down). But get a big enough boat (say 120'+) and pick decent weather and you'd have a good con.
And it'd be mostly using green, renewable resources (wind, solar power for the electrics).
