Starting this Sunday we are going to see if we can get a few Star Wars LCG players to come out around 2PM. Feel free to join us. If you haven’t played the game yet, come out and we are sure someone will loan you a deck.
We have 2/3 of a order from Battle Foam put together. If you want foam designed for your X-Wings, Warmachine/Hordes, Malifaux or Flames of War, let us know and we will add your request to our list.
We have a local National Candidate Master that wants to start a chess night. He’ll be here starting July 2 for the following few Tuesdays around 6 or 7 to try to find opponents. If you are interested, let us know – or just show up.
Just a reminder that this week’s FNM is 2 Headed Giant. If you’d rather draft we have a pod of Modern Masters, and a pod of Return to Ravnica block.
July 13 and 14 are the Pre-Releases of Magic 2014 (M14). The first starts at Midnight Friday. Two more on Saturday at 9AM and 6PM. Two Headed Giant happens at 2PM. Sunday, we have our last two at noon and 6.
Sunday July 14th we’ll be modifying our prize structure. Instead of our usual 1 pack per win, on Sunday we’ll go to 5 rounds and you must have a 3-2 record (or better) to win prize packs. This is an experiment, so vote with your dollars as to which format you want.
I know what you are thinking, isn’t the Malifaux 2.0 event on Sunday? Yes, but at 6, we turn the store over to a geek folk band called The Doubleclicks.
Never heard of them? Here, listen to this.
So, we’ll see you Sunday night. The suggested donation is $5, but bring an extra $2 for a cold Mexican Coke.
Friday June 7th is the release day for Magic The Gathering’s Modern Masters. It is also the day of our first Modern Masters Draft.
Sign up in advance at the store to ensure a space!
Continuing their trend of switching things up a bit, they’ve decided for June’s event, to do some more boardgaming, and what better choice than the biggest “gateway” games of them all, Settlers of Catan!
In Settlers of Catan, players try to be the dominant force on the island of Catan by building settlements, cities, and roads. On each turn dice are rolled to determine what resources the island produces. Players collect these resources to build up their civilizations to get to 10 victory points and win the game.
Featured last year on Wil Wheaton’s Tabletop, Settlers has won multiple awards and is one of the most popular games in recent history due to its amazing ability to appeal to non-gamers and gamers alike.
They’ll be running several tables of Settlers, each table highlighting the core game and it’s numerous expansions.
Dapper D8 games are social events, a place where gamers from the area can gather together and hang out, trade stories, and build new friendships. While you shoot the breeze with friends new and old ……you’ll have your pick of delicious home-cooked foods of all kinds to nibble on, prepared for you by our volunteer chefs.
All this, and it’s even completely free! Free food, free gaming, and a lovely space to meet with friends and talk about your favorite hobby. Sounds pretty great, doesn’t it?
Everything kicks off at 6:30 PM and will run until 9 PM.
We hope to see you there!
