This Saturday a pick up game of World of Warcraft the Boardgame is forming at the Bulwark. We have several committed players already, but a few slots are open. Come by around 5:00 if you are interested in learning how to play this great game from Fantasy Flight Games. If you are a fan of the video game, you will love this incarnation of the franchise.
The Bulwark is proud to welcome the Chico Beer and Blades club! This Diplomacy group has been negotiating deals, breaking alliances, and tenuously hanging onto their “friendship” for almost a year now. The group will be meeting this Saturday to discuss new league rules, the state of Piedmont, and to play a game. Visitors and newcomers alike are welcome to watch and encouraged to participate. If you have any questions feel free to contact me!
Good Evening Ladies and Goblins,
It is I, your humble commissioner Bylliam Toofgobbla, and at once I must apologize for my absence and silence over the past few weeks. You see, I was hiding on vacation up until recently and had several meetings scheduled in order to ensure this upcoming season lives up to it’s expectations.
The pitch is ready, the grass is dying, and we have kidnapped a fresh batch of cheerleaders. In fact this is thanks in no small part to the charity of the Dark Elves. Yes friends, it seems myself and Chairman Baus had several incorrect preconceptions about the talented race from Naggaroth. That is why I am excited to announce several teams from the Dark Elf ilk will be playing this season.
As well, the Tall Oak Thorner’s victory over The Tentacular Spectacular was not just an inspiration to fans, but an inspiration to teams! The Tall Oak’s sponsorship by Destruction Direct will net them a pretty penny in the upcoming season, and that potential has cause several other teams to sign up for this august league. Therefore, it is my pleasure to announce that we will be splitting up into two divisions of six; the Destruction Division and the Order Bowl.
That’s not to say that we are going to have our hard times either. Unfortunately recently Maneat Baus was caught up in a nasty affair, and had to resign. Without his candor and leadership I am sure this season is going to be tough going forward, but the Dark Elf management talent has perforated our previous management team, and really stuck it to the stragglers.
I look forward to what this year has to bring, and welcome back the legacy teams, as well as the new ones. First meetings will take place on Monday, at the Bulwark in Altdorf. As we are guests in Altdorf this season, please keep the looting to a minimum.
James Proffer will be hosting a Vampire: The Eternal Struggle demo this Sunday at 3:00. If you are interested in picking up a new TCG that has some great party play mechanics and several play styles this is great game to try. James has volunteered to bring his stack of cards and teach people how to play, so if you are interested all you have to do is bring yourself, and a smile! If you want some more information about V:TES check out the wikipedia entry which has a fantastic breakdown of the game.
The Bulwark is pleased to welcome Team Chico RPGA every Wednesday night! The RPGA is the official fan club of Wizards of the Coasts, who publishes free episodic modules. To play in the RPGA simply bring a first level Forgotten Realms 4th edition character. Playing a character in the RPGA has a lot of benefits, you can drop in or drop out of a group at any time, and your character is playable throughout any RPGA game in the nation. The Team Chico RPGA group meets every week at 6:00, and is always welcoming new players, characters, and prospective DMs alike! If you have any questions, or would like to create a new character email the Team Chico RPGA coordinator Don Boucher at boucher@improvementdirect.com!
This Sunday the Bulwark will be opening it’s doors at 3:00 PM for 500 points of Warhammer 40K. If you are working on an army this is a great time to try new tactics, learn the rules, or just come in to paint and socialize. Last week we had a very competitve game of Kill Team and it was a great chance for people to learn the basics of how infantry move, shoot, and to meet the people they would be moving against and shooting at. Also, if you are interested in Warhammer 40K come in an check out this great game, with a great group of people!
We are happy to announce each Friday we will be closing the Bulwark so New Haven by Night can take the stage. This Mind’s Eye Theater group has deep roots in the Chico area, and joined an international gaming organization called One World By Night about two years ago.
If you have any questions about playing in the World of Darkness Vampire Chronicle, New Haven By Night, email Chris Foster and Ryan Huber at NHBNStaff@irondragongames.com. New Haven by Night typically starts at 8:00 and ends at Midnight.
