Have we got events for you!
This Saturday, we have the Magic the Gathering: Mirrodin Besieged prerelease tournament! For those of you who have been to our prereleases before, we’re always packed! This time, Wizards of the Coast is doing things differently. Pick a side! Mirrin or Phyrexia! What side you choose determines which promo foil card you get! We only have a limited amount of cards. If you haven’t signed up yet, we’re full! We are taking names for a wait list though! We will start at 12:00pm (noon) sharp! If you’re not here, we will drop you from the list!
If you can’t make it to the prerelease event, maybe you can make it to our Saturday Booster Draft! If we have enough, we’ll be using the Mirrodin Besieged cards for it! We are not taking sign ups for this, but show up early for this one! We usually start at 6:00 pm.
This Friday we’ve got our usual Friday Night Magic! Come in with your standard deck and play! This event is growing and growing! See how other players are using the new Scars of Mirrodin in their decks. Entry is still only $5.00! We begin around 6:00 pm.
The new session of Dungeons & Dragons Encounters has begun! This time we’ve got Keep on the Borderlands! Encounters is run every Wednesday night at 6:00 pm! Come on in and play!
The Dead Gamers Society comes in every month to run a few games. Let me tell you, these games are getting bigger and bigger! February will be no different!
Sunday, February 6th, the DGS will be coming in to run two games. Mage is one of them. Come in and play a wizard in the modern day! They will also be running Geist! That’s right, that’s short for poltergeist! Come on in for a ghostly good time. Now, it is possible that these games might be moved to the 13th because the 6th is Super Bowl Sunday. But I’m sure Louis will keep us updated. Oh! Speaking of February 13th, the DGS will be coming in that day to run Haus of Mirrors!
On February 12th, the Dead Gamers Society will be playing their London Fog game. Come play in Victorian London! Always a popular event!
For more information, check out the Dead Gamers Society Facebook page or Meetup page.
So this week, Dicehouse Games was able to get in special orders for ten people. That was twenty-two items! Everyone who put in a special order receives a 10% discount. Looking for something we don’t have in stock? Special order it and you too can receive a 10% discount. If we haven’t been able to get your special order, chances are our distributor was out, but I guarantee that we are doing our best to find it from somewhere else!
That’s about it for this week! See you all in seven!

New Stuff: January 13th
Thursday, January 13th, 2011
Hey you guys! Welcome to another thrilling Thursday at Dicehouse Games! So it looks like we’ve got another pretty decent restock day instead of new stuff. But it wouldn’t be a “New Stuff” newsletter without actual new stuff.
Reaper Miniatures
Gerrin Goblinkicker, Dwarf Hero
Mousling Heroes: Bard, Thief, Knight
Fire Beetles
Plague Doctor (Pathfinder)
Yeah, that’s it. I’m guessing game companies need some time to get back into the swing of things before sending out a barrage of new stuff for us! But here’s the restocks!

Gloom Card Game
Flying Frog
Last Night on Earth – The Zombie Game
Looney Labs
Monty Python Fluxx

Of course, we still do have Saturday Booster Draft Tournaments. Come in and build your draft deck with Scars of Mirrodin! The entry fee is $15.00, but covers the three boosters you receive and prizes!
The new session of Dungeons & Dragons Encounters has begun! This time we’ve got Keep on the Borderlands! Encounters is run every Wednesday night at 6:00 pm! Come on in and play!

On Sunday the 9th, A Day of Darkness with the Dead Gamers Society! They ran three games for you: Geist the Sin-Eaters, World of Darkness Mirrors, and for the first time, Mage the Awakening! We had a full house for this one! I believe they will be here either February 6th or the 13th. I’m sure Louis will clarify that for us soon.
For more information, check out the Dead Gamers Society Facebook page or on Meetup.com.
So this week, Dicehouse Games was able to get in special orders for four people. That was six items! Everyone who put in a special order receives a 10% discount. Looking for something we don’t have in stock? Special order it and you too can receive a 10% discount. If we haven’t been able to get your special order, chances are our distributor was out, but I guarantee that we are doing our best to find it from somewhere else!
That’s about it for this week! See you all in seven!
