In the evening, we had a full gaming area with the Rifts RPG group, two bloodbowl games, a group playing a board game, and a couple guys playing a Warhammer Fantasy battle with their new Skaven army.
We have two games going, both with one night adventures! The first is a one shot D&D 4.0 event. The other uses the Fudge system! Both gamemasters are RPG veterans and the players have varying degrees of experience.
Privateer Press, the makers of Warmachine and Hordes miniatures, Monsterpocalypse CMG, Iron Kingdoms RPG, and a line of paints, tools, brushes, even two boardgames has begun to feature thier PREMIERE retailers. Guess who they chose to be the first? Why Unique Gifts and Games of course! (thanks Wil!) Here is the link: http://privateerpress.com/company/privateer-press-retailer-spotlight
Last night was our second monthly Tarot card reading class! (third class overall). We will have another on the last tuesday of March! If you missed the first two, you can still attend the upcoming one! It’s never too late to learn your fortune!
We had a full house in the gaming area for Board Game Night! 17 players in 5 different games.
I’m in the Warmachine/Hordes tournament on Saturday, had my first and only practice game with the army list I made. Lost, but encouraging, I know what I did poorly.
Look for some special news having to do with Privateer Press and our store soon! More info later.
I played a scenario of Check Your 6! with Steve. It has been an ongoing Guadalcanal scenario book. My Japanese forces didn’t do so well, but did manage to get a couple bombers to drop thier payload over the airfield. Time will tell.
We also had a few Warmachine players drop by to get some practice games in for this saturday!!
New news! A couple Warhammer 40k players are thinking of starting a group gaming night during the week…….details to follow when they nail down thier plans!!
Well, yesterday, our local press ganger (privateer press demo person) was kind enough to stop in and get a newer Warmachine player a little warmed up for his Adpeticon tournament.
Today we had a couple Bloodbowl games. First was mine, and man, I had it in the bag, but my opponent was able to knock the ball away and huck it down field away from me, ruining my chance to score at the end of the 2nd half. Now it is OT and he had to get going, so we will finish another day. ARGH! the suspense is killing me.
Second game is still going on, but near the end of a 1-0 match.
I must say that the GW Bloodbowl rules are very consice, compared to say Mordheim. I love Mordheim, but there are too many rules questions that crop up that are hard to define. Bloodbowl has none of that. I always have fun when we run a league here!
We had a sunday tournament! Prize was a Ultra King Kondo! I was able to participate in this one. My first game I was able to kill off my opponents first monster with one throw attack into two firey buildings! And then finish off his second monster the same way! All with one life left on my monster. Alas, it was not to be, and I could not keep the victory train going. Look for another tournament in March!!
