Thursday, July 1st, 2010
Hello all you happy gamers out there! It’s another Thursday and we have new stuff! Of course, right? So let’s start off the second half of 2010 playing games! Oh, and we will be closed on Sunday, July 4th. But we’ll be open on Monday the 5th, when many other of you folk will be off of work!
On to the new stuff!
Alderac Entertainment
Legend of the Five Rings RPG 4th Edition (We finally got this in!)
Fantasy Flight
Warhammer Invasion LCG Burning of Derricksburg Battle Pack
Warhammer Fantasy RPG The Winds of Magic
Kenzer
Knights of the Dinner Table #164
Reaper
Brandle Birchstaff, Arch Mage
Collin Coalshadow, Thief
Twilight Creations
Zombies!!! 9 Ashes to Ashes
And of course, we have restocks!
Flying Frog
Last Night on Earth – The Zombie Game
Steve Jackson Games
Zombie Dice (I’m telling you, we can’t keep this one in stock!)
Z-Man Games
Pandemic
Onto the events!
Magic the Gathering! You know we have Friday Night Magic and Saturday Night Booster Draft. So that’s not new, but what have we got coming up? Well, Magic Core Set 2011 is coming out soon! So that means we’ll have the pre-release here! This is next week folks! If you’re interested, we are taking sign ups now! And of course, pre-orders for M11 when it comes out on the 16th.
M11 Pre-release – 7/10 & 7/11 (The Wizards of the Coast reps came in and talked a little about this and it promises to be as good as M10!)
M11 Launch – 7/17 & 7/18
M11 Game Day – 8/14
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. 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!
Speaking of the Dead Gamers Society, we had their Sci-Fi Day here this past Sunday and it was absolutely huge! Thank you to all those who participated! It was a great day for gaming!
The D&D Encounters game is still going strong! Dark Sun! That’s right! Dark Sun is coming back! 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 week, Dicehouse was able to fill special orders for five people! 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 it for this week. See you again here in 7!

The Dead Gamers Society will also be coming in June 27th to run another fun day full of gaming! It looks like it will be a Sci-Fi day! That’s right! All games will have a Sci-Fi theme. Looks like there’s going to be a Dark Heresy game along with a War of the Worlds type RPG. These days are always packed and everyone has a great time.
The Dead Gamers Society also comes into the store twice a month to run other White Wolf games. Right now, the first Sunday of the month, Geist is run. And on the third Saturday of the month, they come in and run Vampire the Requiem.
It looks like the Malifaux league has gotten off to a good start. And it’s not too late to join and earn some points!
We also have the return of Dungeons & Dragons Encounters! This time the encounters will be featuring the new Dark Sun Campaign Setting coming out this summer! 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 will be welcoming 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. Jeff does ask you show up about 15 minutes ahead of time on the first session in order to get everyone signed up and characters out. 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 event is limited to about 4 to 6 players, so we will be taking sign ups. So if you’re interested (and we are expecting lots of people wanting to participate), please give Dicehouse a call or come in and sign up!
For those of you who are interested in Pathfinder, check this out! Starting Sunday, June 13th, Jesse Burciaga will be running a Pathfinder game in the store. Come on in with a level 1 character or create one in the store with Jesse! We are looking for about 4 or 5 regular players to come in on Sundays and play a regular campaign. So sign up now! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Jesse at his email address: pariah77@hotmail.com. He will be happy to answer an questions you may have!
This week, Dicehouse was able to fill special orders for nine people! 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! Oh yeah, and pre-orders get a 10% discount too! Come in and check out the new GTM magazine and pre-order what you want!
That’s about it for this week. See you again here in 7!
