Inquisitor66 Posted November 25, 2018 Report Share Posted November 25, 2018 Anyone up for a game of 40k or Kill Team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blustorm Posted November 25, 2018 Report Share Posted November 25, 2018 @MOONEY I'm planning on being at the club around 4/4:30pm to play our Week 7 game. Let me know how things are looking for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything but the custom dice (they’re in the mail), although the game can be played with regular D6s without too much fuss (and I have plenty of those). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fruitbat619 Posted November 26, 2018 Report Share Posted November 26, 2018 Hi I just moved to Portland a few months ago and recently just got back into 40k. Still newish to the game and was wondering if i am allowed to come check it out and play a game to see if I like it? I go to guardian games once a week but other than that i never see any players there. Is there anything else I should know or advice . I live in NW district if you think there are other places to check to play. Thanks- 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is usually some 40K action at the clubhouse on Tuesdays (you're in the right thread), but the end of the year slows things down a bit. Your best be would be @Ish, @Inquisitor66 or @Dark Trainer if they will be around. Good luck, and glad to have you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody's busy with family, holidays, end-of-year work stuff... and so on and so forth. Things should go back to normal after the New Year. As for places to play, Guardian Games is pretty much the epicenter of all forms of hobby gaming in Portland. There's a standing WH40k League Night on Wednesdays at 6:00 PM, you'll usually see a dozen or more players every week. You can usually get a pick up game, but since its an active league, you might have to wait a while... Especially if there's a tournament coming up as everyone is trying to get in some practice games. There's also usually a handful of guys playing WH40k on most Saturdays, but its not a given. Red Castle Games has a standing Saturday and Sunday WH40k Escalation League, starting at a low point value and moving up every couple of weeks, a great way to get into the hobby on a more serious level. It's all the way down in SE Portland, so if you're one of Portland's many car-free residents (like me) then getting there can be a real pain in the proverbial dice bag. The Portland Game Store doesn't have any organized WH40k right now (seems to be more of a WarmaHordes crowd). But it's a very nice store and you can probably get someone to meet you there for a game without too much fuss. Game nights at the Ordo clubhouse are also an option. We don't have any leagues or campaigns going on right now, but you can always drop a note here on the forum (or on the Facebook group), you'll usually get a bite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit out there, but it's quite a nice little shop - and right on the MAX, too. Tuesdays appear to be 40k nights. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early year leagues are common at Ordo Game Night, keep a look out. The clubhouse is a cool environment for gaming as it doesn’t have the many distractions that can exist at other venues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to get a game of 40k in, let me know in advance and i'll make sure to bring my army. The first game night is free to experience the club. After that you can become a champion or just pay $5 per game night. That said, Guardian Games has a Wednesday league they run. Also arranging games before heading out is always a good idea. Using our boards to arrange club games or even local game store games is a great tool to get games in. Let me know if you're interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wzzzzrd Posted November 26, 2018 Report Share Posted November 26, 2018 I'll be showing up for KT, but I'd also be interested in watching a 40K game since I haven't played since 4th edition. Either way bringing the KT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wzzzzrd Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 5th edition, also a small grey mini case. I looked around a bit, hoping they tossed everything out, but I didn't see anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
