Is there going to be a 40K event?

Sorry about the delay in responding to both of you. Let me just state that the OF senate is still in the process of making an official OFCC announcement and thus, any specific info regarding HoG submission or what game systems will have events is still TBD. I'm hoping HoG submissions can start by Feb 1st and I think it's likely we will have at least one 40k event, but until we have an official announcement I can't guarantee anything. 

Thank you for your interest and hope to be able to give both of you (and the rest of the OF club) some official information soon. 🙂

If anyone is interested in a Kill Team game, I can bring my minis/terrain with me. Otherwise, I can work on terrain or clubhouse cleanup, watch Mordheim games (if any), etc. 

Please post here if you plan on attending. In case of extreme weather (ice, snow, etc.), I will post a cancellation notice at least 24 hours prior to the Game Day. 

THE PLACE

Location: 717 SE Main St. Portland OR 97214 (map) - Around the corner from Kokiyo Teriyaki and up the stairs. Cost to play games is $8 for Ordo Members, $3 for Ordo Warlord Champions, and FREE for Emperors & Imperators! As always, your first Game Night is FREE! 

THE GAMES

Games we play: All, with a focus on Warhammer 40k, Kill Team, Bloodbowl, Necromunda, board games and more.

While it is possible to find a pickup game at Game Night, it is much better to pre-arrange a game before coming down. New players are always welcome, feel free to stop by and check it out.

BUT WHAT ABOUT COVID-19, RSV, Flu, etc?

Although Oregon and Washington no longer have mask mandates, we still require all our players to be courteous and conscious of their opponents and other players around them.  If you're feeling ill in any way - please stay home, and make sure to communicate with people you've been in contact with.   Ordo will continue to have masks available for anyone to use, and we're happy to make certain rooms mask only if anyone requests it.

GAME NIGHT EXPECTATIONS

Please be aware that as always, the Czar has the ability to ask a player to leave if the Czar feels it necessary. Game Nights are meant to be enjoyable, low-stress activities, so let’s have fun.

Great to see everyone today! I had a great KT game with @Kampfer , then I got to watch four games of Mordheim. I'm impressed that the Ordo collection of fantasy terrain could handle all four boards and still have plenty left over for at least two more!

Thanks everyone! Hope to see some/most of you in a couple weeks. 😀

Kampfer has first choice as I responded second lol

Gotcha. I just want to make sure that anyone that wants to play KT has a game. Being the GN czar, I don't have to play a game; I can do other things while I'm there. 

@Kampfer and @BigMick37 I'm down to play either of you or you can play each other. As I stated previously though, I am a bit rusty as I haven't played a game in almost 6 months. I have four Kill Teams from the Compendium to pick from - Space Marines, SM scouts, Chaos SM, and DeathGuard. BTW, I would prefer to play earlier that day rather than later, so I can check out the Mordheim action when those players show up around noon.

Got room for another Mordheim player?

Hi there. Welcome to Ordo Fanaticus!

Just so you know, I believe @Wentwizard is running a specific type of Mordheim campaign. Here's a link to the sign up form and campaign info:

I think if you stop by on Sunday, you can chat him up for more info. I'm not sure how many total players will be there. Last time, we had 4 players and a couple of spectators. 

I'm planning on bringing Kill Team with me. I'm a little rusty, but I'd be up for a game. Alternatively, I can work on clubhouse cleanup and building terrain if I don't have an opponent.

I am going to stop by to do a trade. But I'll bring 1000 points of semi-painted marines if anyone wants to play.

Just FYI, this post was for last Sunday, Dec 11th. I haven't heard of any plans to open WOW for tomorrow, Dec. 18th. 

I am planning on being there about 10-15 minutes before 10am, so I can clean tabletops and the bathrooms before people arrive. 

See you all in a couple hours! 🙂

I figured I'd go ahead and post a notice for a Game Day next Sunday - 11/13. There is an OF Senate meeting scheduled for 1pm, so the big room will be reserved for that purpose. However, if anyone would like to schedule a game, the other rooms will be available for open gaming during 10am - 3 pm. Please post here if you plan on attending.

I'll be there, working on terrain in the morning and participating in the meeting during the early afternoon.

THE GAMES

If you're looking to game we will be here. Opting to lay low? Stay home and stay safe, we'll catch you next time.

THE MISSION

Games we play: All, with a focus on Warhammer 40k, Kill Team, Bloodbowl, Necromunda, board games and more.

While it is possible to find a pickup game at Game Night, it is much better to pre-arrange a game before coming down. New players are always welcome, feel free to stop by and check it out.

BUT WHAT ABOUT COVID-19?

Due to the current Multnomah county mask mandate, all attendees must wear masks.  Players are encouraged to spread out their games and avoid congestion. Do not attend game night if you experience any of the symptoms found here.   Oregon's Mask Mandate expired on March 12th - but we do require all our players to be courteous and conscious of their opponents and other players around them.  If you're feeling ill in any way - please stay home, and make sure to communicate with people you've been in contact with.   Ordo will continue to have masks available for anyone to use, and we're happy to make certain rooms mask only if anyone requests it.

GAME NIGHT EXPECTATIONS

If the pandemic has taught us anything, it’s taught us we don’t need more stress in our lives. As a result, Ordo is expecting an even greater level of friendliness and fellowship at Game Night than our normal high expectations. Please be aware that as always, the Czar has the ability to ask a player to leave if the Czar feels it necessary. Games are meant to be enjoyed, so let’s have fun.

Big thanks to @SixCoal for coming down and helping to clean/organize the big room, library room, terrain room, hallway, and bathrooms this morning. 

Planning on being back at WOW in two weeks. I might actually play a game this time. 😏

I'm gonna stop down and catch up, give you a hand. Feel like I haven't seen you in forever!!!

I'll be there from 9:30am to around 11:30. It would be great to see you! 😃

Doesn't look like there is much going on tomorrow, so I'll just be there for a couple hours in the morning. 

I'm planning on being there for a few hours to work on clubhouse cleanup and organization. Afterwards, I might stick around to work on terrain, hang out, etc. 

Straight from GW HQ!

I'll be by around 11am to hang out a bit before the senate meeting starts at 1pm. 

I think the big question is this - Are there enough volunteers to make OFCC happen? Right now, the OF senate is about one-third the size it was back in 2019. Most of the Senate is currently occupied with simply ensuring that Game Nights and tournaments are still happening at our clubhouse. The next OFCC might not be big as the previous one, but if we can get a sufficient amount of volunteers to help out and organize, I think we can definitely make something happen. 😎

A RD hobby progress thread.  I had not idea how much I've missed this.

Yes, they are one of my favorite threads to read as well. 😀

Doesn't look like there's much interest for open gaming tomorrow. I'll go ahead and cancel this session.
