We plan to play the Arkham Horror board game at open gaming night on 3/5. Feel free to come, RSVP on the calendar if you can.

Do you have what it takes to walk the darkened halls of immortality? Can you resist the Call of the Beast? Are you strong enough to unravel the mysteries of the elders? 

Play Vampire the Requiem RPG starting in February the first Tuesday and third Wednesday of every month at Pair a Dice Games 6 PM. 

Presented by the Fanatical Gamers Society of North County and Pair a Dice Games.

Welcome everyone! Currently the FGS has been meeting every Friday night in Oceanside. (for more information PM Paul) We are currently speaking to our friends at Pair-A-Dice Games to have an Open Gaming Night on a specific Saturday night every month (i.e. every 2nd or 3rd Saturday evening) Once we come up with a schedule we will let you know and it will reflect on our events calendar as well as on Pair-A-Dice Games event calendar.  If someone wants to bring/play a certain game on any open gaming night one only needs to post what it is they want to play and number of players that can join in.  We will also try to showcase different games when we can.

Regards,

Paul

Our local Press Ganger Paul is putting on a Foodmachine charity tournament on 12/19 so get your Warmachine and Hordes armies (Mark II, please bring one 35 point and one 50 point list) and come prepared with lots of canned food to donate. As an entry fee, players bring donations of canned and staple goods to be donated to the local food bank/pantry. A unique tournament format is used to encourage donations during the event.

Privateer Press, the creators of the Warmachine and Hordes game systems and miniature lines, provides unique award support for the event including special prizes for the tournament winner and the most generous donor. Additionally, a prize will be award to the location that hosts the most successfully event in terms of goods donated. The Thrall Harvest is national in scope with charity tournaments happening all across the country annually from November to January.

Please see our forum thread for more details as well as the calendar event entry. Beyond the entry fee of an as yet to be determined number of cans you can spend more cans to re-roll your bad dice or force your opponent to re-roll their good dice. This is not a competetive setting, we are out to have fun and collect as much food as possible for our neighbors who aren't as fortunate as we are. If you want to buy a tourney win by bringing hundreds of cans of food please do!

Everyone is welcome,  all donations will be for the North County Foodbank. Non-perishable food or cash are welcome. Pair-A-Dice Games (the host for this event) will be offering discounts for anyone who donates food all that weekend!!

Yes, that's right: Privateer Press has decided to release a PDF version of the new MkII rules online four months ahead of the release of the book (scheduled for January 2010). Read the full scoop on their site here. There is a link not only to the rule set there but also to a PDF of the cards for the models. Unfortunately the default size of the cards is 8.5" x 11" so you'll have to do some tweaking at print time to get them small enough to fit in a card sleeve. I'm not sure if they will be legible at that size but I'm sure they can at least be printed small enough to make them less unwieldy on the tabletop.

In case you haven't seen the calendar we have two events coming up in October 2009. There's a Warmachine/Hordes tournament scheduled for 10/10 and a Call of Cthulhu roleplaying session scheduled for 10/17. Click the links for details or visit the Events Calendar page.

It looks like trying to clean up spam posts during the data import was a bad idea. I did a fresh import of all records and it looks like the forums are working fine now. Thanks for your patience.

I upgraded the site today to a newer platform for better security and spam-bot protection. However at this time the old posts aren't showing up when you click on a topic so I'm working on resolving that now.
