•  Saturday May 26. 35 pt. Steamroller at The Vault. Death clock. Weather effects will be used. For example there is one with fog that reduces LOS to five inches.

HOLD ON TO HOPE

As you grow up you always think your family will always be there... until something like cancer hits close to home. Then all you can do is "Hold On To Hope".

Holding on to hope is what Audrey Pounds-Montgomery is doing while she puts up a fight against Carcinoid Ca...ncer and neuroendocrine tumors or NET's. After raising two boys you would imagine that you would be trained to fight anything that was sent your way. But Carcinoid Cancer was one of those fights she never saw coming. Since carcinoid cancer has a slow growth rate compared to other cancers, it usually takes many years before they become sizable or cause symptoms to be detected. Early detection is a challenge due to the slow growth of the NET's. 

Never the less she must have done something right because while she fights from the inside out with doctors that are trying there best on this cancer that is in need of research, her son (one or our own local Zumba Fitness Instructors) Dustin Jewell fights the financial end by holding this event. We all know treatments are costly and not always covered by insurances, and travel to and from hospitals itself is a headache on its own.

 

So Dustin ''Holds On To Hope'' while organizing what could potentially be a blast for all who attend. Taking part in such and event not only sets you up for your own challenge to step toward health and fitness, but you also help out a great cause. He is gathering up some of the most energetic instructors from the local and surounding areas to turn up the heat for what might be one of the areas hotest (90) minutes classes yet. So take a step toward hope and help out yourelf and someone else during the "Hold On To Hope" Benefit.

"The advocate waits around a clipped unfortunate." - Q

Dark Day, Ill Omens Megabattle - Greensburg, PA

PG Saidin invites you to come to Greensburg, PA on October 30.

Dark Ascension approaches, and the 3 moons will align shining fully on the Iron Kingdoms. The smart and superstitious will be safely in there homes; The treacherous and power hungry will race to the focal pont as arcane power surges from the heavens. The day spells ill fortune to all, but some may walk away with great power from above.

Set during the current time line, this battle involves all of western immoren. The minions of the dragon father plan to tap into the of the heavens on this dark day. So the call goes out "Who will fight the forces of cryx?" "Who will grab power to waste all of immoren?"

I'm working up details, the only thing I can tell you for sure is that the models from the leagues can be played in this event. Next, there can be only one of each character model on the board total, so some characters will need to be drafted by each side. Also I'm looking for two teams.

Cryx (and maybe some merc/minions) vs everyone else.

I am requiring that the cryx team have all 3 Lich Lords on the battlefield. Please post if you are going to participate and what your going to play so you can be on a team. I'm currently planning this for October 30. I will end up charging for this event, money goes toward some type of food and then door prizes.

The first Middle Atlantic Team Tournament (MATT) will be held in Media, PA on October 9th.

Each store or club within 2-3 hours driving distance will form teams of 3 players whose wins are counted together for the overall win of a team traveling trophy. If you have an odd number coming (say 4 or 5) members outside a 3-man team can still play but their points don't get added towards the team tournament prize. 

Individual players still vie to win 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, so there is plenty of reason for everyone to come and play.

YOU WERE WARNED!

In order to hype up the coming release of Privateer Press's Retribution of Scyrah release in September, I will be scheduling at least two Demo Days at Whatever!! in the DuBois Mall. I am not sure exactly what days I will be doing this as of yet ... but it will fall sometime between September 4th and October 2nd. I am aiming for Thursday night for these demos. It mainly depends on how long it takes me to get my shiny new Retribution models from the Company and then how long it takes my lazy self to get them assembled and painted. But ... you have been warned.

Remember that the Retribution book and models will be coming out in September. Talk to the staff at Whatever!! to special order your models.

http://privateerpress.com/warmachine/retribution-of-scyrah-preview-page

The purpose of the demo will be three-fold:

1. For new people to try the game and learn how to play.
2. For veterans to wage war on the Retribution and see how the new factions preforms.
3. To prepare for FLASHPOINT, a event that will celebrate the launch of the new faction.

You can read more about WARMACHINE and get free Quick Start Rules by clicking on the following link:

http://privateerpress.com/warmachine/the-game

All items needed to play with be supplied during Demo Days. Participation in Demo Days is free of charge. Come in and roll some dice.

And if you are already playing WARMACHINE, then bring in your models and throw down with the Angry Elves ... they'll be waiting.
