Comic Quiz!

Take the comic quiz!

Blaine has put together a very challenging comicbook quiz. Just follow the link and click on either “Marvel” or “DC” to take that specific quiz!

 http://www.bureau42.com/view/10566/bureau-42-geek-test-comics

 

Blaine informed me earlier that I scored 75% on the Marvel quiz, I’m sure there are people out there that can beat that!

If you’re familiar with the Marvel universe, give it a try (and if you can remember the day and time you took the test, I can ask Blaine how you did!)

Steamroller 4: Saturday, November 26 at 12 Noon Edmonton St. Albert

Like iPhones and all things Apple, our Steamroller events have moved on (evolved?) into it’s latest, and I hope “best”, iteration: Steamroller 4.

Over the past 3 Steamrollers, we’ve learned a ton of stuff- we experimented and made changes to our system and over the course of time come up with a solid event system that I think works very well.

What can you look forward to? What does your $20 entry fee buy?

*3 rounds of play with random scenarios from the most current Steamroller document (revealed at the start of each round)

*Free lunch with 2 free cans of pop! It’s too cold to BBQ, so we’ll be cooking up meatball sandwiches!

*Prizes, Prizes, and more Prizes! Depending on the number of entrants we’ll have prizes for the Top 3; including Certificates and Trophies (min 16)! Random prizes (“Grind” Boardgame!)! Prizes for Best Sportsman (you can only vote for someone you previously played) and Best Painted Army!

Even if you’re a new player, you’re welcome to check us out!

We start at 12 noon and please register in advance (via email: info@thundergroundcomics.com) by sending me your 2 lists of 50 point armies.

“Magic: Graveborn” Is Here!

Just in time for Christmas!

And what says “Christmas” better than an all FOIL premium deck! That’s right you get a complete playable all FOIL deck! Basically, you search for whichever creature cards you need from your deck and put them into your graveyard (with cards like “Entomb” and “Buried Alive“), then revive them with cards “Animate Dead” and “Dread Return“. Pretty fun stuff.

Have only have a few of these left on hand- if you’re looking for one of these decks, please email me at info@thundergroundcomics.com or phone me during regular store hours at 780-459-9548 and I’ll gladly set one of these aside for you!

New Releases from Privateer Press for the month of November?

We have:

*Domination SC
*Domination HC
*Epic Hexeris
*Epic Baldur
*Sturm and Drang

If you’re looking for any or all, please call me as soon as possible and I will do my best to have them ready for you. We have a limited quantity of Hexeris and Baldur for now (the rest of them arrive Friday). If you play any of the Hordes factions, I strongly recommend picking up the new “Domination“book just to see the new models coming our way in 2011/2012!

Looks like “No Quarter” #39 will ship later this month (I do not have an eta).
