Information on the next events.

With news coming in left and right, here's an update for you all. On October the 1st and 29th, we will be working with our local Pizza Hut to help raise money for their world hunger drive. The first one will involve specifically Magic the Gathering and Dungeons and Dragons(along with other systems I'm sure). With a wealth of a donation from a local gamer David Miller, we will be making a bunch of decks, and for $3.00 players will receive a random deck that will contain 2 rares, and a wealth of commons and uncommons, and we will have a random deck tournament. The prize is yet to be announced, but this should be an exciting event. We will also be holding raffles and other activites. Entry is $2.00 and raffle tickets are $1.00, or 6 for $5.00. Bring your collections and if you would like bring your stuff for open gaming, I"m bringing my orks just in case, lol. It will be held at the following location:

Effingham Recreational Complex
808 hwy 119 South
Springfield, GA 31329

We hope everyone comes out and has a good time.
Thanks

We are going to have a warhammer 40k tournament, 1200 points standard organization. We will be using missions from either the main rule book or battle missions to keep things simple. The Winner will get a standard Black Aluminum KR Multicase brought to you by our buds at KR Multicase!

We invite as many players as possible for this and the prize will also be a dci promo card from the available assortment.

There will also be 2 heroclix tournaments. One will be a standard no losers bracket. Winner can pick a figure from the available assortment. The second will be a multiplayer game, but we will be using a giant board composed of the hexagonal pieces from heroscape. Dark Grey grids will be hindering terrain, blue will be water, and elevations will be obvious. Once again we invite as many people as possible to this one as well. Winner will pick a figure from the available assortment.

WAAAAGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This guy's waaagh friggin rules!

Updates for July

I hope you all had a happy 4th of July and enjoyed the Star Wars Clone Wars Marathon on Cartoon Network Yesterday. Anyways on to the updates. First of all I would like to mention some of the games we will be playing on August 6th that are not tournaments. There is a fun boardgame(great for kids) that we will be playing called "Oh Gnome You Don't!" It reminds me of Candy land, and its hilarious. Basically what you are trying to do is get from one part of the board, to the last part while steeling gyms from other players, selling items in the local shops to get more gyms, and it's fun. Quick too! Another game I want to play, just gotta round up everyone else interested, is called Ascension "Chronicle of the godlsayer." It's a trading card game where you don't have to buy more cards than what comes in the game. No Boosters, rare cards, etc. Just buy it, get your friends, and play. The idea is to win by getting the most points through defeating monsters and having certain cards. It's fun. The last one I want to mention is Pathfinder RPG. We don't have a tournament for it, but I think it is necessary for all the 3.5 fans to make the move to this system. It is well written, everything is in one rulebook, and it puts a new twist on races and classes you already know from Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 and it's respective sourcebooks. Such as one of Sorcerers. When you take the sorcerer class you take a bloodline which in turn makes your sorcerer more focused. Sort of how Clerics have domains or how you can take paragon paths in 4th edition. I highly recommend making this switch.

Thats all for now. Will update again as more news follows.

Heroclix Online early review

We finally have it, Heroclix online. This is similar to how Magic Online works, where it works on the same format of playing. The control Screen is great. You can see your collection, create forces, purchase boosters, find tournaments and find open games. Right now for the price of 1.95 plus a starter set and in July, an exclusive figure, you can't beat it. Worth it for that. It's even the Fantastic Four starter, so you get an AMAZING doom figure. Now for the bad news.

Navigating in the map, during play is kind of... questionable. It's not impossible to get where you want on the map, but it does take patience. You cant just click a point and drag your mouse quick (when I did it it took me everywhere but where I wanted.) You have to finesse it, and move only in short increments at a time. The next thing that is kind of... That's pretty much it, everything is straight forward and the actions are great. I plan on playing more, and when it takes off, expect to see bozziusmaximus at plenty of online tournaments.

Thanks
Jared
