See how other players are using the new Scars of Mirrodin in their decks. This month we’re giving out foil Wild Nacatl cards. Entry is still only $5.00! We begin around 6:00 pm.
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!
The 11th of December will see the Dead Gamers Society come in and run their World of Darkness London Fog game! New and experienced players are welcome. Use one of the pre-generated characters available or bring your own Victorian-era beginning level character.
On December 19th, the Dead Gamers Society comes in and run a Geist game and a Haus of Mirrors game! New players are welcome! And of course, the third Saturday of the month, they come in for their famous Vampire: The Requiem game! Come in and be a blood sucker in the City of Angels!
As we get closer to the holidays, Dicehouse Games usually has a charity event, consisting of games to be played with an entry fee plus an auction. Of course, all proceeds will be going to a certain charity. So we’ve made the decision to go with Children’s Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) for this year’s charity. Tuan will be running a Magic the Gathering Standard Tournament on Saturday at 1:00 pm. I will be running some sort of a Savage Worlds RPG adventure on Sunday, probably at 1:00 pm. We are looking for other volunteers to run games as well. If you would like to run a game, we ask that you be able to collect a $5.00 entry fee from all of the players. Also, if you would like to add any in-game bonuses, that would be great. For example, in the Savage Worlds game I will be running, if anyone wants to make a re-roll of the dice, they can do so for a dollar! We will also be having our usual auction at the end of the event on Sunday. So far, we’ve got Privateer Press sending us a signed copy of the Hordes MKII rulebook and signed posters! Chaosium has sent us several RPG books: Call of Cthulhu, Basic Roleplaying, Masks of Nyarlathotep, and The Yith Cycle! Fantasy Flight Games has sent us Warhammer Invasion and Android! Some of the other game companies who have said they will contribute to us is Mayfair Games, ToyVault, Goodman Games, and Cubicle Seven. Possibly even Wizards of the Coast will be sending some stuff our way. So when is this shindig going to happen? December 18th and 19th! I know it’s the weekend before Christmas, but do you really want to be out there shopping? And maybe you can win a game at the auction and give that as a gift? Either way, that weekend will be loads of fun!
So this week, Dicehouse Games was able to get in special orders for nine people. That was fourteen 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!
“This is my “depressed stance.” When you’re depressed, it makes a lot of difference how you stand. The worst thing you can do is straighten up and hold your head high because then you’ll start to feel better. If you’re going to get any joy out of being depressed, you’ve got to stand like this.” ~Charlie Brown

See how other players are using the new Scars of Mirrodin in their decks. This month we’re giving out foil Gatekeeper of Malakir cards. Entry is still only $5.00! We begin around 6:00 pm.
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!
In a small field, just outside of a sleepy town in 1940′s middle America, Martian Saucers hover in the night sky. Having chosen their first target, a large group of humans gathered around a traveling carnival on the outskirts of town, a legion of Martians march to war. But not all the Humans are defenseless. As the crowds flee in terror and are vaporized by the saucer’s death rays, one brave group of circus performers step forward to defend their planet – Earth’s first line of defense! This will be their greatest performance…and maybe their last. Invasion from Outer Space is a board game from the people who brought you Last Night on Earth. It uses the same mechanic as Last Night on Earth, so both games are compatible. Joe Sosta will be coming in to demo these games on November 21st! Come on in and join the fun. Learn to play. New players are welcome! **Please note, the date has changed from the 14th to the 21st.
The Dead Gamers Society come in the second Sunday of the month (November 14th) to run their monthly Geist Game! Come in for a ghostly good time! They will also be running a World of Darkness Haus of Mirrors this day as well! This is the same game Julie Scott ran at the Rendezvous, but will be ongoing! Woot!
The DGS also come in the third Saturday of the month (November 20th) to run their monthly Vampire game! Become a blood-sucker in the city of angels. The 13th of November will also see the Dead Gamers Society come in and run their World of Darkness London Fog game!
As we get closer to the holidays, Dicehouse Games usually has a charity event, consisting of games to be played with an entry fee plus an auction. Of course, all proceeds will be going to a certain charity. This year, we are either going to be donating to Children’s Hospital of Orange County or Make a Wish Foundation. Looks like we’re leaning towards CHOC. We will keep you posted on this. We already have a signed copy of Hordes MKII and posters coming in from Privateer Press.
So this week, Dicehouse Games was able to get in special orders for nine people. That was sixteen 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!

So let’s talk about events!

They’re also a nice bunch of people too! They are coming in to run a Sci-Fi Day. Make no mistake, these events they run at Dicehouse are getting bigger and bigger. In fact, this Sunday we’re opening up earlier at 10:00am just so we can get things started off right! Here is the schedule of games to be run through the day:
10:00am to 2:00pm

Aliens 5 (Savage Worlds system)
2:00pm – 3:00pm lunch break

Just added – Dark Heresy (So many people want to play this one, they added a second game in the afternoon!)
You don’t need to know how to play any of these games! Just come on in for some fun!
Don’t forget, 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.
As many of you know, we have Friday Night Magic (FNM) going on at 6:00pm every Friday (that’s why it’s called Friday Night Magic!) and Saturday Night Booster Draft at 6:00pm every Saturday (of course).
The Archenemy event was a fun event! We have even more Magic events coming up too!
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 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.
Jesse’s Pathfinder game is still postponed. But details should be coming soon! Keep your eyes open for it!
This week, Dicehouse was able to fill special orders for ten 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!
