Hope everyone is ready for a safe and happy Halloween!

We will be celebrating Halloween from Noon to 8 PM on Sunday, October 31, 2010 so feel free to drop by and have some candy and grab a loot bag! Don’t forget to watch “Walking Dead” on AMC later on Halloween night!

Picture above is Logan K as Jace Beleren! This costume is truy amazing and the picture does not do it justice! Shaun and Kelly (Logan’s mom and dad) were telling me it took a few days to put together- there is just so much detail in the lining of the hood and the brooches, Just a truly great costume! Nice work you guys!

Not a dream. Not a fantasy. It’s actually here and one day early!

UPDATE: Fixed the usable sets in Type 2- origianlly I had listed “Alara” block as in Type 2, but they rotated out at the start of the month. My mistake.

I’m sure everyone is eager to play with their new cards! So, here’s the perfect opportunity to build a new Type 2 / Standard deck with a twist! You can choose to play either a Mirran-affiliated deck or a Phyrexia-affiliated deck (rules below!), what better way to get the feel for this new “Mirrodin” set?

This Saturday, October 30, 2010 at 1 PM we are hosting a “Scars Of Mirrodin” Game Day! It will be no charge to play (FREE!) and the good people at Wizards Of The Coast (WOTC) were kind enough to send us some amazing new cards to give away as prizes (including a preview card of the next Magic set called, “Mirrodin Besieged“)! Here’s a great link with tons of information on this great artifact block:

August 2010

The rumors were true!

Releasing this August 7, 2010, Games Workshop will be releasing a brand new sculpt on a familiar favourite: Chaos / Chaos Space Marine “Daemon Prince“! We are taking preorders for this item right now! Just send me an e-mail or message me on FaceBook!

While I thought the other Daemon Prince was amazing looking, this new one has an adding advantage of looking great and being made from plastic! Another definite plus is the price: the old metal Daemon Prince has an MSRP of $42 CAN, while this new one’s MSRP is only $39.50 CAN! Be assured our prices will be even lower than the GWS prices! Order it today!

Matt L has been doing an amazing job hosting our D&D Encounters, but something has come up and he’s forced to cancel the July 15, 2010 meeting and promises to host a double meeting on the following Thursday!

So again, the D&D Encounters meeting that was scheduled for Thursday, July 15, 2010 has been cancelled. There will be a make-up session the following week on Thursday, July 22, 2010.

Thank you all for understanding and again thanks to Matt L for his tireless dedication and bang-up DM job!
