Today: Beer Tasting from 6-8pm; Worker Placement Games with Trent & Beth @ 6:30pm; Catanamaniacs @ 7:30pm (gearing up for the big tournament on 9/20!). Wednesday: Riichi Mahjong 2-10pm; Netrunner League Play begins tonight from 5-10pm; The New Season of D&D Encounters, Tyranny of Dragons, starts @ 6pm. And with the start of the new season of Encounters is also the official release date of the 5th Edition D&D Player’s Handbook! We have plenty in stock and available for sale. We’ve had it for two weeks now and I have to say we are VERY impressed. First off, it’s a beautiful book, with evocative art, good easy-to-read layout, nice paper. Next, they’ve really taken D&D back to its roots — the rules are light and inobtrusive. Only 18 (of 314) pages are devoted to combat and movement! Magic is back to how it used to work with spell slots and whatnot, but now with lots of options to keep things interesting and to keep spellcasters able to fulfill their role once those spells are used up. Most of the book is about making characters with many neat choices available and ways to bring out the roleplaying aspects of your characters. A solid ‘A’ grade to Wizards of the Coast this time. And to help represent those characters we have in the new booster packs for the new D&D Miniatures. They are plastic, pre-painted miniatures that come in randomized boxes, 4 minis to a box. We also have copies of the D&D Starter Boxed set and the Miniatures Starter Set to complete your collection. August 19, 2014 What’s Happening? Aside from PAX – part three. Today: Deckbuilding Games w/ Trent and Beth @ 2:30pm; Story Games @ 6pm; Iron Kingdoms RPG @ 7pm. Monday: 1st Edition D&D with Ron @ 6pm; Boardgame Learn n’ Play @ 6-10pm; Lynnwood Magic MeetUp: EDH and more! @ 6:30pm. You may have heard inside the shop that we are grabbing another cooler specifically for root beer kegs. Well, that should be in next week barring any catastrophes. But what does that mean? Rotating Craft Rootbeer. Between you and I though, Lynnwood’s own Big E Ales makes the best around. So we’ll be keeping them on 75% of the time. An Extra Tap for Craft Beer. We already have a set tap for Ales light, dark, hoppy and belgian–not to mention a dedicated draught cider. Instead of sticking with a style for this last one though, we’ve decided that we would rather define it by geography. We have so many awesome breweries in a 15 mile radius, whether it is Edmonds’ American Brewing Company and Salish Sea Brewing Company, Ballard’s Populuxe Brewing or Everett’s Justice Brewing–not to mention Lynnwood’s aforementioned Big E Ales or Shoreline’s upcoming Charging Hippo Brewing Co.. Local beers for the win! So next time you drop by make sure to ask what’s local. See you soon. August 31, 2014 Logging In...
