News for March 5-11, 2012

This Saturday we will be running a Pre-Qualifier for the World Wide Catan Championship. For a $15 entry, we you get a chance to go to Origins free to compete in the Qualifier, then on to the Championships themselves! We have a sign-up sheet in the store. If you are interested, or know someone who is interested, please let us know. Currently we have half the number of sign-ups required to run an official event.

Monday is the official start to our Flames of War Escalation league. If you actually want to find an opponent for mid-week, we suggest using our forums to find an opponent.

Tuesday nights we have been averaging a single game of Malifaux. If we need to either organize a different night or something else, let us know.

We will now be starting the Magic Draft on Wednesdays at 7:00 sharp. Last week we had several new players, so if you haven’t been out for a while, feel free to come back.

Our calendar should be up to date with all the latest happenings.

Cosmic Grub

Cosmic Encounter: Cosmic Alliance finally arrived today! We expect this new expansion to sell out fast.

Also, by popular demand we have restocked Gamer Grub.

Wallenstein and Not Dune

Two of the long awaited games arrived yesterday. Wallenstein was the original inspiration for the game Shogun (conquer lands while keeping your peasants from revolting). A new printing is finally available.

Twlight Imperium: Rex re-implements the mechanics from Dune (which has been long of print).
