| OMG bear baron, you are my hero, but im sorry mike, nothing can compare to Star Wars minis !!! and KoTOR one and 2  | |
Well, I would like to think my new profession is pretty simple... I kill people, very quietly and quickly and deadly and all the sort of the same thing.... or I can just force lightning the bitch and get it over with more destructively and loudly LOL | |

| Another question....
Have you figured out how you're going to run the Bloodwar/Heroclix prereleases? | | | |

| More questions......
Really just a suggestion, but for Dreamblade this month in the last week maybe it would make more sense to run the Edge event on the Wedensday and do the Sealed event Friday when the new minis are released. | | | |

Another question....
Have you figured out how you're going to run the Bloodwar/Heroclix prereleases?
It is looking like the DDM prerelease will be at 10 am, and Heroclix will be at 4 pm. This way when the DDM crowd thins out we can start Heroclix. This is not set in stone yet, as we are still looking at options.
In regards to DreamBlade, I will look at shuffling things around to make more sense. Baxar's War wasn't on the radar screen when I did the scheduling.
FYI - GameKnight now has meat.   Mmmmm.....meat. | |

Hey stranger! Yes meat. It comes from cows (mostly). Some would argue that our meat selection really isn't meat, but that's up for you to decide!
Puzzled?
Good! Ha ha ha! We now have "Hot Rods" available for your snacking pleasre!
See what you've been missing John?

| On another not, as I mentioned before, I am working on a "Game Day" for EN world people combined with Manx mimis people. The date has been set, November 26th. I'm still working on details though.
I'd like to know:
1) Who is planning on attending?
2) What would you like to see there (D&D, other games, demos)
3) Time frame - all day or a few hours. Start/End times.
4) Contributors - DM's, Demos, or???
I'll start a separate topic for this and we can banter about it there.
Cheers | |

| Hello,
Beer Baron, those arrangements look great. I am glad that I could help you set up something that will benefit everyone.
I posted over in the other thread that I will not be able to attend, but I will be there in spirit.
Now, for this week, who is ready for minis on Thursday?
Cheers

Hey Idzy,
Apparently i've been gone for a while since it appears you got into another minis game! Wizards has got you hooked doesn't it. Just don't sell your TV to support the habit.

| Retail kits are not here. WOTC remains quite as to when, etc.....
In fact WOTC is remaining quiet in regards to tournament results that aren't registering, Friday Night Magic (tomorrow), and some other stuff.
Idzy, go poke them with a pointy stick would you. | |

Well dreamblade didn't cost me much, and I dropped SWM so there should be no threat to my TV. | |

Ummm....maybe.  Did you not get an email with a sanctioning number? I faxed it in, but now they aren't accepting faxes anymore, it all has to be done online. New rules too, all tournaments must be sanctioned at least 7 days in advance (Dreamblade Edge and Friday Night Magic the month beforehand, for the whole next month).
We may be stuck without sanctioning for that night. Do you want to run a theme night instead? Or just have an open game with no reporting? | |

| Dreamblade today saw 6 people show up to play, Nico, Richard, Bach, Chris Smythe, Rob and myself. I faced Bach in the third round as we were both 2-0 and we played a vey close game ending up in a 4-4 draw. I ended up winning the tournament on strength of schedule but we had three players at 5 points (Rob, Bach, and myself).
Ad for the mounted D&D minis event there were 7 out to play, Richard, Nico, Scott, Chris V, Paula, Kerry, and Jay. Richard went 3-0 to win a Dreamblade booster so congradulations to him.
As they were playing DDM Smythe and myself sat down and hammered out a killer November and December schedule for Scott. There's still some stuff needed for the game nights on Wedensday's to round out the schedule but we have a Dreamblade Edge event schedules for each month as well as a Three Dragon Ante tournament in November. If you have suggestions for games you'd like to see on Wedensday let Scott know. | | | |
