New 40K Activity

March 29, 2013   cathleen.feduke

Here is the link to the Facebook group.

Dan Crook has volunteered to set up all kinds of 40K goodness at the store.

To start with, he set up a 40K Facebook page.

Then he set up a league. The first meeting was Thursday, the 28th. The price will be a $25 buy in for the whole league. That day will be a practice 500 point game.The following Sunday Dan will put together a pairing for the next week. The next two weeks will be 500 point games. Then the next two weeks will be 750 point games. then to 1000. May the 16th will be the last day at 1500 points. After this game the prize for first place will be handed out, and maybe even some ribbons or something cool like that.

Dan will be here for the practice game and the final game.

I am also thinking that some Game Vault 40k league T shirts might be cool. If they pay an extra $5-10 they can get a shirt as well.

More information may follow here.

Another 40K Bonus

March 12, 2013   cathleen.feduke

Our incentive last month worked and 40K players are showing! Let’s keep it up by making this a regular thing. Again for March we will reward you for playing 40K on Thursday nights. Play in 3 out of the 4 Thursdays this month between 5pm and midnight and get 30% off one box set of your choice. (Doesn’t even have to be 40K.) Please come to the counter to tell us you’re here to get credit for showing up. You must be here for at least two hours each Thursday to get credit for that night. Please note that showing up with a 40K book and not playing is the same as not showing up. In fact it’s worse, you’re taunting people who want a game. If you want credit for being there you have to be willing to play.

Swap Meet!

March 12, 2013   cathleen.feduke

Join us this Saturday (03/16) for another amazing swap meet!

Rules:
Everything you trade must be legal (no drugs, weapons or children)
You MAY NOT trade cash. In lieu of cash come to the counter and get “funny money” to trade with someone. Funny money may be traded freely with other customers. When you’re finished with your trading turn in all funny money for 100% store credit.

Although we will hold this open through 2pm for those that want to linger and sell, you will likely stop finding sellers a little closer to 12 or 1pm. Come early and bring your stuff!!! It doesn’t have to be gaming related – I’m not sure if you’ll find a buyer or not, but you can bring whatever legal stuff you like.

Warmachine League

February 24, 2013   cathleen.feduke

Umbra – Warmachine League – February 25th-March 25th

Something bizarre is occurring across western Immoren. A new and unseen threat is on the rise—someone or something that will alter the wars of the Iron Kingdoms forever. The effects are being felt all across the land, whether it be the sudden disappearance of an entire village’s population, unnatural seismic catastrophes, or any number of other unexplainable phenomena.

Who or what is behind this? Gather your army and face your foes at the sites of these strange anomalies. The truth must be discovered.

Join us every Wednesday as our official Warmachine day or come in for chance (good chance) pick up games any day of the week. Ask for your patch at the front desk. We have enough for 16 players. Unfortunately first place does not get the Champion coin. We do have a nifty set of Privateer Press dice for them.
