I'm going to try and make it out. Put me in the category of still needing to build a warband though.

I can make it, but I can't make a competative enough warband to make the night enjoyable. So I probably won't come.

So no one wants to trade for my Bralani, Centaur, or Ice Devil?

Tyler man, you're looking at it all wrong. Theme nights aren't designed to be uber-competitive, they're supposed to be fun. So stop whining, man up, and get your ass down there on thursday!! Besides, none of us are going to have tier-1 bands, we all have the same restriction, remember that.

To everyone else, count me and Paula in, see you thursday!

Here's a handy list of female minis. I don't think it's 100% complete but it's a good reference point.

It's good to see all the collectors coming out of hiding. I guess a new set will do that.

This week:

Wed - A&A minis, Bach's RPG
Thurs - D&D minis "ladies night" 100 points or more female minis.
Fri - FNM, Dreamblade Edge
Sat - Rememberace day, no games scheduled.

I will be open after 12:00 noon on Saturday, so there is a possibility for something if anyone is interested. Throw some ideas out there.

we could have a casual D&d minis event, 500 pt epic to make it extra fun, I know a lot of people want to try out the new epics! Or giant 4 way mini madness epic, teams, or just an open game day, play settlers, or whatever

Hello all,

Mike, do you have an Axe Solider in drag in your warband there.  I think you mean Axe Sister.Â

@ Beer Baron & Idzy,

There is a rumour around of Starship Battles being delayed.  Any truth to this that you are aware of?

@ Beer Baron alone,

I forgot to ask when I was in today, when exactly are you expecting Dungeon Tiles II to come in to the store, and what about Cityscape?  Also, are you bringing in any more copies of Complete Arcane?

Cheers

Re:  SSB's
I am not aware of any delay, but this is WOTC.  They have been sold out of SSB starters for a while (good thing I got a pre-order in).

Re:  Dungeon tiles II
The release date is November 14th.  I don't know if I will have them that day or not.  It's not worth going direct for only 1 product, but I may pick it up from a secondary supplier if it is convenient to do so.  I put you down in my book to contact when I have them.

Re:  Cityscape
Released today, however I only brought in 1 copy.  It looks good.  Also releasing today are DragonMarked (Eberron), and Scourge of the Howling Horde (1st level adventure).

I haven't heard anything about delay for SSB, only that we are not going to be demoing it. I guess if the starters have already sold out that explains the lack of demos.

Going by what's been said on the Wizard's boards it was just a delay in shipping by Amazon for the Starship Battles. Perhaps they didn't get enough to cover their orders. How much did you order Beer Baron?

Nice to see 8 people out for ladies night tonight.  Good luck to everyone next week for the sealed event, as I will not be able to make it out.

Yup, good fun. Those shadowdancers are fun. Especially with Mounted Drow and Rikka to provide flanking.

Dreamblade tonight.

Rob's running a demo. Don't forget to bring some of those Wizards warband boxes.

And I'll be running the tournament. The more people there the more rounds we'll play. Come out to beat Scott.

I'm really torn, I'm hoping people show up for the demo so we can increase our player pool, but I'm also hoping no one shows up for the demo so I can play too. I didn't bring any boxes today, but I will try to remember to bring some next week.

Party on J!

Well Dreamblade was fun. I went undefeated. But, sadly there was a 4 way tie for 1st with points, and Rob was our winner. Statistically I was tied for second, but the cursed alphbet put Scott behind Richard for only 3rd place.

Ah who cares, it was fun and i got to play, which I don't normally do. Thanks again Mike for running it.

Today is Saturday, and Paula/Kerry are here, is anyone else coming by?

Hello all,

So, a few questions at the end of the weekend.

1)  How did the GameDay go, how many people out, etc.  I heard that it was OK, but that was about all of the detail I got.

2)  Did anything happen on Saturday?

3)  How many did you have out on Friday for Dreamblade?

Cheers

8 people out for Dreamblade Friday. A new record. Half the people were borrowing warbands but that's okay. Feel free to come out next week if anyone is interested and I'm sure we can accomodate you with a warband to play with. It's a super fun game.

I believed the 3 that were borrowing warbands left with enough stuff to build their own for this week.  so hopefully we have a few more addicts.

that said I won't be able to make it out this friday.

Hope you had fun with whatever was played on saturday and I am looking forward to more D&D on Wednesday.

If interest gets up high enough for Dreamblade we could make it a weekly thing. I'd volunteer to run an extra tournament on the 24th. As long as we know by this Thursday I'll put in a sanctioning request for it.

Or instead of sanctioning we can try a theme, perhaps mono-faction warbands only, or a no rares theme.

Let me know what you think.

Guys, I would like your opinion about my idea.

http://www.maxminis.com/Forums/tabid/104/forumid/51/postid/677640/view/topic/Default.aspx

If it sounds like a good idea, I'll e-mail Wizards. If the part at the bottom of the main post is true then I'll have re-think some things and take another break from minis to try and fix it.
