New Stuff: September 22nd

Thursday, September 22nd, 2011

Hello all of you happy gamers out there! Welcome to another Thursday! That means we’ve got some new stuff! Actually, we only have one new item in today, but it’s a pretty cool one!

Z-Man Games
The Walking Dead Board Game! (Yes, this is finally out! And this is the comic book version of the game. There is another version based off of the TV series coming out soon!)

Yep, that’s pretty much it for new stuff. But we did get in quite a bit in restocks, but it might not look like it from the list.

Chessex
D10 Dice Sets
Poly Dice Sets
(If I were to list all of the restocks, there would be 60 sets of dice on here!)

Fantasy Flight Games
Call of Cthulhu Arkham Horror Board Game

Wizards of the Coast
Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition Player’s Handbook

Yep, that’s it. Now onto our events!

This Friday we’ve got our usual Friday Night Magic! Come in with your standard deck and play! This event is growing and growing! Entry is still only $5.00! We begin around 6:00 pm.

Also this Saturday at 6:00 pm, we will have our regular Magic the Gathering Saturday Night Booster Draft. Only $15.00 for this event, but that covers all your boosters and prizes!

Mark this on your calendars: September 24th! We will be having the Magic the Gathering Innistrad Pre-Release Event! This will be a sealed event! What does that mean? Entry is only $25.00 and that gets you six boosters to build a deck with! Then we have a tournament! You also get free foil promo cards! We are taking sign-ups now! We will not do any over the phone sign-ups. You must come into the store!

So not only are we doing the Innistrad Pre-Release, we’re also going to have the Launch Party one week later! That’s right! As if holding a huge event on the 24th isn’t enough, we want to do it all again the next Saturday! But we’ll be giving away a different foil promo card! Stay tuned for details!

And in case you were wondering, the new MTG Innistrad cards will go on sale the Friday right before the Launch Party!

For those of you who came in on Sunday the 11th for our Board Game Night, you may have seen we were quite busy! So don’t miss out on the first Sunday in October for our next Board Game Night. We start at 5:00pm and go until 10:00pm. That’s right, we stay open late for this! Mark Hom comes in and sets up several games to be played! By the way, did I mention this event is free?!

So we’ve got details for the Dead Gamers Society’s Rendezvous! Here it is directly from the DGS page!

Enter the world of best-selling author Jim Butcher’s Dresden Files, where the creatures of the NeverNever lurk around every corner, prowl through every shadow. Only the determination, faith, and hope of mortal kind is able to stand against the rising darkness — be they supernatural cops, wizards, werewolves, changelings, or just plain ordinary joes.

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!
