Monday: New Stuff!

There are a few cool new things gracing our shelves this week. Here are our Monday arrivals to brighten your day:

Sentinels of the Multiverse Card Game... the original Sentinels of the Multiverse was very well received and now we have the next game in the popular series (not to confuse anyone, this is a brand new stand alone game based in the same universe).

Also new on the shelf is the Flames of War - Open Fire! starter box. It provides everything you'll need to start gaming with 15mm WWII minis. Not only do you get a super sweet full color rulebook, but also about 120 minis, terrain, dice and some other useful tidbits.

Warhammer 40k

40k players, don't forget that we'll be hosting a TOMAHAWC event tomorrow morning. Bring 1500 points and $10.00 to get in. Those fantastic dudes Lee & Ryan will be taking your entry fees and running the event.

If you aren't familiar with TOMAHAWC head over to their website and check them out.

... And because I like pictures, here's this for you.

Circle Gargantuan!

Here's a nifty comparison photo to give you an idea of the Woldwrath's scale.

This thing is monstrous and we've got it in stock now.

It wants you to buy it, if you don't you're going to wake up tonight with a Woldwrath's glowing eyes in the darkness at the end of your bed. You should probably do what it wants.

Used Warhammer

So, since Games Workshop has nixed all metal miniatures in favor of the more popular plastic (and finecast -  arguable?) we've decided to start moving all our metal minis to our used case. The first ones to be transferred over are all of the Fantasy metal blister packages. 

They're all roughly half off the original marked price. As we sell through the blister packs, we will start adding the metal boxed sets to the used shelves (both Fantasy and 40K).

Come by and check out our expanded used selection!

New Stuff and Restocks Too

Our shelves are abound with cool new things this week and there is still more to come!

From where I'm sitting right now I can see Spartacus, a brand new board game set in ancient Rome. It
borrows some artwork from the television series but doesn't seem to be subject to the pitfalls of other TV based board games. It's got an 8.something on BoardGameGeek which is very respectable.



Also hitting the shelves today is Dungeon!, a new D&D fantasy board game. Dungeon! is a family friendly, slightly simplified version of Dungeons and Dragons. Players get to choose a class and take off to adventure through the dungeon. The winner is the player who manages to bring out the most treasure from the adventure. This game is also sitting atop the BGG Hotness list this week!


The much anticipated Elminster's Forgotten Realms is also out this week. This supplement was done by the creator of the setting, Ed Greenwood.

As far as restocks go, we've got several more copies of Super Dungeon Explore, Gloom and about a million Pathfinder Map Packs.

Our main order comes in tomorrow so expect more to come this week!

Seasons - A Fantastic New Board Game

This game is awesome, you should definitely give it a try!



The first shipment sold out quick but never fear, we have it restocked now and we're ready to play. 

Draft cards, roll dice and manage resources! It doesn't get any better than that. AND... most importantly (according to me) it plays fairly quick. Come by and check out our demo copy and if you love it, we'll gladly sell you a brand new one. If we're not busy you can probably even get us to demo it for you!
