  1. I would like to call everyone's attention to the following updates:

    Two INFINITY events added. Please join me in saying a big THANK YOU to @Exile for carrying the Infinity torch (lightrod? glowglobe?) and running a Friday and a Saturday/Sunday event at OFCC 2019.

    And another special THANKS to @FKA Obscure Reference for adding in a BOARDGAME TOURNAMENT on Saturday.

    More information to come on both events. Keep watching this thread for updates.

    For the Good of the Order!

  2. I brought a Shadowsword with my GSC last OFCC and none of my opponents seemed to mind blowing it up every game. 😃

    On the other side of the coin, we did have some one running a three Knight list end up with one of the top sports scores that year. Where is that dude? He coming back again this year??

  3. At the top of turn 2, I once got a Castellan down to 3 wounds left. Then bottom of turn two ended and I had no army left. 😃

    I was the captain of my team so considered it "taking one for the team" as almost no one else on my team had a list that would have fun playing against a Castellan plus two other knights plus IG. I had fun when I rolled for turn 1 and got it combined with playing GSC with only their index entries, my opponent was sweating just a little bit. Then my turn one charges failed and we had a good laugh.

    Knights can fit into OFCC with proper planning and understanding of what others will bring. In my opinion, they better be painted like a golden daemon if i have to look at it across the table! 😋

  4. Hilton Vancouver

    301 W. 6th St.

    Vancouver, WA, 98660

    Hotel Group Code: OWG for our special discount rate! Click this link to book your room now!

    Hello everyone! I wanted to take some time to put together a good informational post about our venue. Some of you might already be familiar and we are happy to see you returning. For all the new people coming through, this venue is the nicest place I have seen an OFCC happen. From the humble beginnings of the barn and the armory, the Hilton delivers comfort and luxury like no other!

    Map & Directions

    The Gaming Hall

    We booked the largest venue offered by the Hilton, The Heritage Ballroom. That’s 11,000 square feet dedicated to your gaming weekend. High pile carpets caress your feet as you stand across from your opponents (Yes, I played barefoot one year). 18 feet of ceiling space softens the roar of battle coming from across the hall. Brilliant dynamic lighting sets the mood and provides for a not-so-squinty Sunday morning. A dedicated entrance on the east side of the Hilton along with a section of 5 minute parking make loading your things into the hall fast and convenient.

    Parking

    Parking is not included in your room stay. The Hilton has parking in their secure garage for $18 per day. However, there are plenty of parking options for the weekend. Any public metered spot is available for free on the weekend. There is also a cheaper pay garage NE of the Hilton, the Park N’ Go located with an entrance off W 6th St.

    Feel free to use the 5 minute loading/unloading zone located off Columbia St to unload your army and bags into the hall. Please note, we will be using part of this area for loading/unloading of terrain and tables Sunday at 4PM.

    Local Attractions

    What venue would be complete without some cool stuff around it? The Downtown Vancouver area always delivers. Almost all of it walkable.

    •        The Vancouver Farmers Market takes place every weekend morning across the street in Esther Short Park.
    •        Esther Short Park will host Viva Vancouver Latin Festival on the same weekend.
    •        Loowit Brewing Company is right out the hall doors and across the street. They fill growlers!
    •        Joe’s Crab Shack and its infamously long wait times is within walking distance and will provide Shark Bites by the tray full.
    •        Take a tour of the new waterfront reconstruction built on top of the hollowed gaming grounds previously provided by the Red Lion at the Quay.
    •        So many other restaurants, bars, and everything else all right next to a great gaming weekend.

    Please follow the steps below to get our discounted room rate before they are all gone! We have a limited amount of rooms available at this low price, so act fast. The room block closes on 8/9 and has the possibility of running out of rooms.

    We cannot wait to see you there!
