Waaaagh!

Check out this monstrosity!

We're Back...

We're back from Prince George!  Just a reminder to anyone listening, that it is games night tomorrow night.  We will be resolving our first round of the campaign tomorrow, and starting round 2!  So, if you are involved or wish to become involved, please stop by tomorrow if you can!  6pm at St. Andrew's Church basement.

Army Builder Update

Just a reminder, Space Wolves have now been release for Army Builder, don't forget to update!

Fantasy Tourney

We're thinking of hosting a Warhammer Fantasy tournament soon.  Seeing as most people in Quesnel in the scene are new to the fantasy side of things, we're thinking of keeping our first few tourneys to a smaller scale, so that people can work their armies up slowly instead of having to lay out a lot of cash right at the beginning.  I am going to have a poll to the right, asking which size you would think would be best.  Also, if you're interested in participating, please post a comment!

Thanks!

This was too good not to post...

OUCH!!! Nice, but OUCH!!!  You going to schedule yours soon Barret?

Scourgewar Loot

Let's start with "Tiny". A common mini mount loot card with 50 charges, (though they are no faster than walking) These little guys now offer the most cumbersome of the WoW races the ultimate spoof mount experience. How many Taurens have dreamed of cruising around on the blood elf hawkstrider? But no, the vendor says, you are too large for this creature to bear. Not any more! Now Hordies can cruise around on a baby raptor, for the Alliance, a little pony. Although the size difference will eventually beg the ultimate question......Does this mount make me look fat?

Next up, the Tuskarr Kite. For those of you who love you accessories, here's a groovy Northrend treat to run around with. If, however, you feel no need to stroll around waving a kite above your head, this little toy also counts toward you companion pet achievements......so mabye that redeems it a bit. What can I say, I'm not a kite person.

Saved the best for last! Ok, how awsome is this!? For all of us who have longed for the most coveted of mounts, the Spectral Tiger, this may be as close as we'll ever get. I can see this little guy easily becoming the most sought after pet to date, and who can blame us? He's the cutest thing, and what WoW player wouldn't love the the offspring of the Spectral Tiger?

FRIDAY!

Greetings!

Its Friday!  That means the weekend is upon us and the store is open late tonight (until 6pm) so head on over.  The store just got a huge shipment of Games Workshop stuff in on Wednesday.  We've also ordered a huge new shipment of Warcraft and JINX accessories, as well as a ton of new board games and card games related to Warhammer.  Also new this week is the next expansion for the Warcraft CCG.  Not sure what the loot is, but I'll find out today and post it!

See you soon!

PS.  The store is going to close a little early tomorrow (Saturday) because we have to book it to Prince George for a Christmas Party.  But I will be in the store for part of the day relieving Mandy so she can get ready for the P-A-R-T-Y!!!

Sober Dwarfs 2009-2010 Winter Campaign

Here is our board for the current campaign.  Forgive me that the board is not painted, but we had to get this going quickly and I should be able to "paint as we go."  I will update this picture every Tuesday to update what happened in our campaign on Mondays, which is our local gaming night in Quesnel.  We meet at 6pm at the St. Andrew's United Church basement.  If you're in the area, come stop by!

Welcome!

I highly doubt that anyone is going to read this, but I think its good to have a start!  This blog is going to be dedicated to everything 40K, and especially as it relates to the Warhammer-sphere of Northern British Columbia.  We hail from Quesnel, which is a small town with a dedicated core of gamers.  I am a 40k enthusiast (Eldar!), dabbling here and there with fantasy (Wood Elves!), and I own the towns only game store, and namesake for the blog, The Sober Dwarf.  Expect posts often!
