The tenth Board Game & RPG event hosted under the auspices of RAIDERS OF THE GAME CUPBOARD
Date ……. Saturday, March 20th 2010, 10:00 am till 8:00 pm
Description: A full day of gaming with plenty for everyone. New players are always welcome and the organisers are on hand to help you find a game.
All sorts of games will be played: board games, mini's, card games and roleplaying games. Past popular games have been: Arkham Horror, Wings of War, Axis & Allies, Settlers, Tomb, Dominion and many many more...
This event will also have the latest WORLDWIDE D&D GAMES DAY event held - in the past these have been imaginative, fun and a very good intro to the new book they are launching. This time the adventure is to launch PLAYERS HANDBOOK 3.
Amongst the "big" games planned this time we will be including games of ARKHAM HORROR USING THE BLACK GOAT EXPANSION and TOMB: CRYPTMASTER - possibly there will also be a HEROSCAPE: D&D game.
The venue is a good sized hall large enough to accommodate many gaming tables.
Bring along any games you would like to play or let us know if you are running a Role Play Game and we'll add it to this write up.
The organisers will bring games from their collections. If you have ideas for the day let us know.
Space available for other games, a Games Library is supplied by Spirit Games

All kudos to Peter. Loved the game, even though we all perished into that damned portal. Was a great day though. Thanks all that made it possible and see you all at the next one.
Thanks again to all you helped to make another fun day of gaming. See you all at raiders XI
All hail Peter the Party Killer. Had great fun, thanks for DMing us through the games day event. Can't wait for the next one.
Ive still not heard anything back from my DCI card (gave to your quite a while ago jim)..... has it been sent/lost? Will I need to fill in a new one?
Yes they both wish to take part and will probably want cards too. Many thanks.
Yup - I can sort you out with a DCI card which we can get Phil at the shop to send in straight away. He knows all the admin details. Just to confirm - will your guests be D&D'ing too?
Just wondering if able to get DCI/RPGA membership at this event? Taking part in the D&D event hopefully.
Picture this: waits in doctors surgery..........'doc, can you get this clock out of my head?'
:-)
My idea for using the chess clock was to time how long people took for their moves, and if it was too long to hit them on the head with it. Isn't that how they do it at the Broken Drum?
The whole trick with using a chess clock is to use other people's clock time as your thinking time.
I'll be running the Arkham Horror Black Goat Of The Woods first thing in the morning (10:30) as it then frees up the table space and players for other games. All the players may survive the full 4 hrs, but having looked at the reviews I think it will be an early tea and biscuits by lunchtime. If anyone would like a space reserving please contact myself or any of the organisers. Cheers
After any D&D, I'll be running a version of Tomb: Cryptmaster with all rules included (i.e. including Overlords) and will be using the new simple board - not the one we used last time which, whilst fun, pretty much doubled the duration of the game. I will also have a chess clock and people will need to execute their moves promptly!
