X-Wing

We have a few very special events coming up that are worth checking out….  We’re having two very unusual and special Magic events this month, as well as having our first Store championship for the X-Wing Miniatures game.

Once in a while we get to do something weird and fun, and this is one of those times.    We managed to get our hands on a cool collection of old preconstructed decks from Mirage through Odyssey!  So this will be a special version of our old favorite the mystery box.  Each player will reach in and get a random, preconstructed deck and 2 random packs from M12, M13 or M14 to round the precon’s out.  This is a great way to get a taste of old school magic, or get a flash back to when you first got started.

And Finally. we are doing our very first event for the Star Wars X-Wing Miniatures games.  This space dogfight game caught my eye at the last GAMA trade show I went to last year.  You get to play with squads of really beautifully designed Star Wars Minis, and the mechanics are nice and straight forward.  (Not the X hours, hordes of army’s and massive time and energy commitment of War-hammer, but something that was easy to grasp, but had a lot of depth to it.)  I particularly love that an X-Wing can be anywhere from a rookie pilot, to Luke with R2 in tow.  We’ve been looking for a chance to start regular organized play, and the Store Championships gives us a perfect opportunity.
