07.29.10
Hey there all of you happy gamers out there! It’s another Thursday and believe it or not, we did get our order in on time this week! Yay! So let me get right on to it!
Alderac Entertainment Group
Thunderstone (OK, this isn’t exactly a new game, but it’s new to us.)
Privateer Press
Hordes Primal Mk II Softcover

Studio 2
Pathfinder Adventurer’s Handbook Genius Guide
And of course, we have restocks!

So it seems this is a light week, but after last weeks huge amount of new stuff, you deserve a break.
But that doesn’t mean we won’t have any events!
As always, we have our Friday Night Magic coming up tonight! We also have our Saturday Night Booster Draft, this time featuring M11 of course. Looks like we’ve got another Peasant Tournament at 12:00 pm Saturday as well! It seems that those who participated last week had a good time that they want to do it again. We’ve also got the Magic 2011 Game Day coming up August 14th. Main event participants each receive a full-art Liliana’s Spectre card. Top 8 finishers also receive an exclusive full-art Mitiotic Slime prize card.
The Dead Gamers Society comes into the store twice a month to run other White Wolf games. Right now, the first Sunday of the month, Geist is run. They are also planning on starting a Promethian game to be run on the same day as Geist. And on the third Saturday of the month, they come in and run Vampire the Requiem. Although I believe that the Vampire game is over for the summer and they have started new season of Hunter, Werewolf, and Mage. But I’m sure their Facebook page can clarify that!
We still have the Dungeons and Dragons Encounters going on that previews the Dark Sun world coming out soon!If you want a sneak peek or a taste of it, come join in the Encounters game that goes on every Wednesday at 6:00pm. Participate each week in an encounter that’s part of an ongoing campaign, played out over the course of a few months. Plus you’ll earn “renown” points as you defeat enemies, solve puzzles, and complete quests – then get cool, exclusive rewards to use in your future D&D games. The more you play, the greater your renown. Dicehouse Games welcomes Jeff Poole as your Dungeon Master in the Dark Sun Encounters sessions. Each session will start at 6:00 pm and run about two hours every Wednesday night. If you’ve never played D&D before, that’s OK. Beginners are more than welcome. And you don’t need to bring your own character. One will be provided for you. If you have any questions about the Encounters event, you can contact Jeff at perrina39@hotmail.com or call him at 714-742-1086. This campaign of Encounters will be coming to a close at the end of September, but we should hopefully be starting the new set after! We’ll have more details as they come in!
There is also a Voltron tournament this Sunday! Darren Shimasaki will be running this tournament. And the prize will be the limited gold Voltron figure! We will be starting on Sunday at 1:00 pm!
This week, Dicehouse was able to fill special orders for eight people! There was a total of 10 orders! They all get 10% off their order! Looking for something that we don’t have in stock? Special order it and you too can receive 10% off!
That’s about all for this week! See you in seven!
