Hello,

Whatever happens, good luck to everyone tonight.

@ Beer Baron - Do you have Dungeon Tile III in yet?  Lots of stock?  Also, I am assuming check in after 9:30 on Saturday, yes?

Cheers

Assuming something D&D related happens I'll try not to TPK everyone before the game begins.

Dungeon tiles have been my arch-nemisis since WOTC posted them as a January release. The release date was yesterday, Feb 27th. I will be getting them from a distributor tomorrow. If they show up. If they have them in stock. If Capricorn is in Virgo.

Hey All. Well I have now joined the ranks of people who had heavy machinery fall on them. Yep, one of the conveyer belts collapsed landing on my right leg. If that wasn’t bad enough the Belt had about 30,000 bags on it. So the next thing I know I’m on the floor leg under a collapsed conveyer belt buried under 30,000 bags. Thankfully I escaped any really serious injury, but the leg is still pretty banged up, so I won’t be coming out for minis tomorrow. But rest assured I will be there for star wars and the pre release

Jay,

Get rested up.  We will be rematched on Saturday at the Pre-release if tradition holds.  I don't want you to miss that.

No minis for me tonight. Too many things to do such as get ready for Star Wars tomorrow.

Oh procrastination.... is there anything you can't do?

If it doesn't snow and hold up all deliveries for a day or more even after they phone and say they will be out today so have a cheque ready.

It's snowy and the streets are sloppy, and traffic sucks. So who's going to brave the elements to come out to our 200 point sanctioned game tonight? Who isn't?

Oh and the shirts are here. They cost a bit more this time for the extra colour. But they are the nicest ones yet.

And the Liquor in the front, poker in the rear shirts are in as well. $10 cheap!

Bit of a disappointing turnout with only 4 people showing up.

Richard (3-0, beat Paula, Norman, Kerry)

Storm Silverhand
Bralani Eladrin x2
Dromite Wilder
Greycloak Ranger x2
Wolf Minion x2
Xeph Warrior
Frostfell Rift

Paula (2-1, lost to Richard, beat Kerry, Norman)

Harmonium Guard
Maug x2
Justicator
Dwarf Artificer
Hammerer
Warforged Scout
Caves of Chaos

Hmm. According to my calculations, that's 202 points.

Norman (1-2, beat Kerry, lost to Richard, Paula)

Cleric of Lathander
Maug x2
Xorn x2
Hammerer x2
Soldier of Cormyr
King's Road

Kerry (0-3, lost to Norman, Paula, Richard)

Free League Ranger
Wemic Barbarian x2
Gnome Trickster
Shadowdancer
Hero of Valhalla
Xeph Warrior
Don't know map

And Paula is now my heroine, since she pulled my name out of the bin and won me a Gargantuan Black Dragon. Raar!

They've sent me automated emails saying it was delinquent. I emailed them back and gave them my upload info, and resubmitted it. DCI software has told me twice now that they have received it. I guess all that is left is to drive down there and smack somebody upside the head with my laptop.

Ya, ya, I'll be there.
I was channel surfing and guess what I ended up watching? The second half of the movie The Children of the Corn. That was just odd.
And just to syche you all out, I'm not coming to the pre-release with my gigantic minis case attached to my arm.
Oh and Baron, I don't think I'll need the bucket this time.

Feels like forever since I've been to a tournament. Sure was nice to see all the new faces. I had a good time and have to tip my hat to Scott for his organizational prowess.

So...who left their mark on the trophy this time?

Hello all,

Yes, it was an excellent Pre-Release.

I may have gone 2-3, but all of my games were fun to play and any of them could have gone either way with a few different dice rolls (and if I had fixed a couple of mistakes in my strategy).


Cheers

I did. I beat Norm, Mike S beat Jay, and then I beat Mike in the finals. The curse of going undefeated in the swiss rounds continues as for the third time in a row they lost their semifinal game.

I should be there. My batteries are a bit recharged for Dreamblade after the time off.

Did a new repaint come in? One that actually looks decent?

Happy Monday everyone.

First of all a big thank you to all who came out to make this another successful pre-release. We had 22 people out and a good time was had by all. As stated above Richard is our winner, and gets his name on the trophy.

I got the posters in today. There is only a limited amount (10), so I'm reserving them for people who pre-registered for cases of the new set. If your name is on my list, then you can get one, while supplies last.

Also in today are the Dungeon Tiles III, Hidden Crypts (finally). There is also an order coming this week with the Unhallowed figs and retailer packs. With luck they should be in by Thursday.

Cheers!

Happy Tuesday everyone.

Just arrived are even more Dungeon tiles III. WOTC just got here, with new boosters and retailer packs.

For Star Wars fans there is a repainted Tie Intercepter (I sort of predicted this one). In the D&D pack is a repainted GreenSpawn Sneak (yes MJ it does look good), Epic Rune Carved Stone Giant card, new module and Chaos Hammer template.

On another note, can everyone see my avatar? I seem to having problems getting it up there.

Also, I was looking at the scheduals. Why isn't there a limited event (draft or sealed) till at least May?

Kerry says he's out for Dreamblade this Wednesday. I assume Paula has her D&D group. Smythe is still out of town. Haven't heard from Nico yet. I'm assuming Bach has to work, so chances are he won't play.

That's your Tuesday Dreamblade status report.
