New rules are, just buy as many models as you can and put them on the table. Roll a d6, and add +$$$ to the roll. The deepest wallet wins. Really makes for nice short games to get beers sooner 😜

If no one bites, you could see what Mindtaker might offer you.

Overnight parking is $10 per day. They can provide a 1 time pass to leave and come back on the same rate (hence lunch). Else, hourly rates can apply. Ideally the $10 with pass is going to apply to most. It's a gated parking lot with frequent security patrols.

They gave me a list of places within 1 mile of the venue (decent list). But yes, food will be a challenge. We'll be planning for that accordingly. That said, delivery works, also looking at some group orders, maybe a food truck (but this might be prohibitive and not effective for 200 people at once). They do have a restaurant too on site. But yes, plan accordingly.

Yes, but waiting on HOG submissions of event descriptions, etc. Also, there should be a broader announcement soon. Just wanted to update this.

There may be some smaller side events, and open gaming tables setup too. Stay tuned.

Tickets for OFCC 2023 are in the store now. We have a 40k event, 9th age event, and Kill team event as the primary events on Saturday & Sunday. We'll be setting up Friday around 3-4pm, but it'll be open until 1am. Saturday from 8am to 1am, and Sunday from 8am until closing ceremony (3-4pm). So there will be plenty of after event time too and likely smaller fun events too.

The daytime space is booked out, but yes someone could run a side event in the evening (probably after 5 or 6pm), or just play games with friends as usual. We have the space open until 1am Fri and Saturday night 😁

We've got some HOG's identified, not all spaces HOG'd yet. That said, hoping to see tickets up soon,(maybe around March 15th. So far looking like ______, ________, and ________. Working to fill that 4th game system 😜

I've talked directly with the Hotel and they've committed to getting me a detailed floor plan next week. This will allow us to start opening up HOG requests based on less size this year and prioritize systems that can be run. We haven't confirmed the main event systems though (yes, likely 40k, Blood bowl, etc). I'm betting Friday night will be open to many wanting to run an event (just in case anyone is wanting to run a Smaller session as a HOG). That space may open as soon as 4pm for such an event and go late into the night/morning (1am). We've done things like Blood bowl 7's before, Kill Team, Board games, etc. Even Saturday Night will do this too. However, more to come soon 😁

Yeah, agreed. The person I'm using it against, isn't a rogue. But he's crazy about his cooking. It's become a major part of the campaign, thus perfect scenario to plagiarize 😁

I'm using this in our campaign!

Sorry to hear that. Below is our selling thread. And yes you can sell on the forum. https://www.ordofanaticus.com/forum/14-rogue-trading/

Let's not go that far. I for one, appreciate AC 🤣

OFCC Dead? Not a chance! The club is surviving, still has club space, all the terrain, tables, etc. Even if we have to do a smaller venue, SOMETHING will renew. However, that's me just knowing the senate doesn't want it to sink. OFCC this year? Yeah, not likely. Getting it back to where it was might be a challenge for the next few years, but not too far off. I'm hoping we can discuss these things in the next few senate meetings. Help me OFCC, you're my only hope! 🤓

I've got to bow out too (grad party prep). That said, throw some dice for me (or at me), or whatever. Just make someone cry in defeat! 🤓

I'd love to play, just been slammed between work and responsibility lately. Someday carnage will happen again!

Tuesdays and Thursdays lately have been game nights during the week. Also Sundays were regular, but some Saturdays have been played too. Your best bet is to arrange an opponent on the game night thread for the day you seek (this helps make sure the club is open, and you have an opponent). You can arrange in this thread too, but just worth a game night post. https://www.ordofanaticus.com/forum/3-game-night/

Same, haven't played in ages, also pretty sure my Imperial ships aren't painted, but were assembled.

I haven't played in a long time (since @Ish) ran a league for us. However, I agree would love to get a game in again. We played a 4 player gate race that ended in some awesome carnage (although slower to play), but still an awesome experience. a 1:1 two car race seems like a good first time player starting point. However a 3 car (I think it was like 45 points or something was also good to start with. I don't remember our exact starting points for intro games though). Heck, i don't recall enough of the rules to play a game yet...would definitely need to re-read...lol. Pics of that 4 player race (2 cars a piece): My Toys:

I'll be there to get something from the locker (hopefully someone has key) and meet for a trade. Not sure I'll game, but we'll see

I would call that a win. Congratulations resisting the propoganda.

I don't want to nitpick here. But my take on Egwene, is, it's on purpose. **DANGEROUS SPOILER AVOIDANCE DETECTED** (sorry, no idea how to hide text) Just knowing Egwene's larger purpose. Makes sense to alienate her early on, and make her less important on a TV series. This is how writers try to include shock/awe later on.

Agreed. It's not bad in any way. Sure it's an adaptation. But my main feedback is there's a LOT of fat to trim. The discussion above about the constant uncomfortable bondings, and other things. It's just not worth millions of dollars to generate it. Look at Lord of the Rings, Tom Bombadil was never introduced! Yet, everyone felt it was true to the books, etc. Game of thrones, and many other successful brands have done the same. That said, this is FAR better than Shannara. These writers are faced with thinning down the material to make money, without overspending. Until you get to Sanderson's books, it'll be required. Jordan was just long winded.
