Frog, was hoping to catch you at Spirit last night but apparently you had something better to do, still cleaning the house maybe?  ;D

Can I put my name down for any Arkham game you may be planning on running? I've not played the newer version before and not played the original for many years. Are there still spaces on the sign up sheet that will be at the entrance?

See you Saturday.

Hi

I wish it was cleaning the house, but I was stuck at work riding around the country.

No probs for Arkham.

I'm aiming for about 12 start, there are currently 4 players for the game.

Enjoy the game and have fun at Raiders, see you Saturday.

Aces! I've been wanting to play this for ages, especially when I saw it all set out at the last Raiders.

See you Saturday.

Thanks to the organisers for making Raiders VI another great success.

 +:wav=+::wav:

Very please everyone enjoyed the day and also set a record for longest a group of gamers have travelled for the event (Scunthrope)

Many thanks to Dat for helping out at the end of the event  +:thumbup=+::thumbup:

The Arkham Horror was its normal fun event today's ancient one was 'The Great Cthulhu' itsself.

I also got the play Wings Of War, which I've been looking out for sometime and enjoyed greatly (Another game to purchase from Spirit)
Me and Zombielord as the Hun took on Alex and Charlie as the Brits for some real wing to wing dogfights (and other strange flying formations) to win in a straight nose to nose charge across the table.

Looking forward to Raider VII in July, hope to see everyone again then, if not sooner at Beer & Pretzels in May.

I'd voted for a Saturday Tourny as me and Zombielord are planning on which planes to buy already so we dont buy the same ones.
Therefore a Saturday event would be great for lots of players and advertising the game in the shop.

Forgot to add that Dat is very interested in a game, so a 4 player and some 2 player games should be easy to arrange.

I would go with that as the more players per side the better I just have to save up for some planes as there will be lots of rules sets about it would seem faster than I can justify/afford spending on a full set of games.

A bit late I know but thanks to the organisers for another great day gaming.

It was a day of long games for me with not one but two games of Talisman with an introduction to Arkham in the middle.

It was also nice to meet some forum regulars in the flesh too. I can confirm that Dat's tale is just as fluffy as it appears in his photo.  ;D

See you all in June.

Thankyou

We did it we survived another day!!.

We had another bumper attendance which is fantastic and everyone looked to be having a good time which is what it is all about.

Also a BIG thankyou to the Salvation Army for providing the excellent hall and facilities.

Once again we had a fun packed day of gaming helped by the friendly, fun and helpful people that attend.

See you all next time and make sure you tell all those that could not make it what they missed and get them to come next time 
 

From all of the Raiders of the Game Cupboard Organising commitee once again:

Thankyou
