TEMPLECON EVENTS

http://www.privateerpressforums.com/index.php?showtopic=191984

PREPARE. This year’s schedule marks a significant transformational step in the evolution of Privateer Press events at TempleCon. We have also changed the face of Eternal War – no longer a qualifying event, this casual play experience now offers significant rewards for playing your favorite games against new friends from all over the globe.

That’s right, the more games you play, the more tickets you earn. Redeem your tickets for awesome prizes or experiences such as a game against a member of the Privateer staff. Eternal War has also birthed a monstrous twin in the form of All You Can Eat for the casual Monsterpocalypse player.

Just like last year there are a series of qualifying events that will send the best players to face off against each other in the Championship events on Sunday. Even if you don’t qualify for the Championships be sure to stick around since the leftover prizes from Eternal War and All You Can Eat will be raffled off at the end of the day.

Go to the link above for a ful description of events!

WHAT'S UP IN THE PA WILDS?

Well, we have a few things to discuss very quickly.

First, there is a Demo Day scheduled for October 2, 2009 from 3 pm -7 pm at Whatever!! in the DuBois Mall DuBois, PA. This has been mentioned in previous posts if you wish to read more. I have two demos scheduled already for the day but if you'd like to come on out I'd love to see you. You can learn to play WARMACHINE and also get a peek at the newest faction: The Rebribution of Scyrah. More information is located at the link below:

Then we have FLASH POINT on October 10th, 2009. Come on down to Whatever!! in the DuBois Mall and join in on the fun. More details are available by clicking on the link below:

Also, be aware that you can download a PDF of the WARMACHINE Quick Start rules here and you can also get the preview PDFs of WARMACHINE: MKII here. Both are available on the Privateer Press website.

And if you already own Narn, and need his new stats card, please be aware of the special announcement from Privateer Press about this model.

And don't forget about your tournament shirts! Get them put together and "wear your colors" to Flash Point in order to participate in a raffle for a Top Secret prize. You don't want to miss out on this.

That's all for now. Don't forget to check in with the staff at Whatever!! for your special orders. They have a new schedule that will make special orders easier to manage. Meet the deadline and you'll have your order in a few days.

Keep rollin' sixes!
