You can move ringkichard to attending, and add a mysterious unnamed other to Strong Maybe (haven't gotten final carpool confirmation).

Very cool!  Judging from your many posts on this site, I have a feeling I am going to learn a lot about this game while having my ass handed to me.  :D  Really looking forward to it!


Updated attendance list and added it to the first post.

Hah, no, I'm terrible! :)
Unknown Other is pretty good, though.

Well, tomorrow's the big day!  I will be at the store at noon with my spell books in hand.  Looking forward to meeting everyone.

I wanna thank Tom and The Games Keep for being such gracious hosts and for the great time we had! I know we'll be looking to repeat our visit when we can.

It was also really good good to have so many people on hand to learn the game. I'm definitely going to come next time with some prebuilt apprentice books to make teaching easier.

Hey everybody!  I had a great time at our first get together.  Can't wait to do it all again!  Let's all keep an eye on this thread and stay in touch.  I am going to see if I can put something together for June or July at the latest.  Also wouldn't mind getting together in smaller groups if our schedules can match up.

Well, it looks like June and July are out for me.  Stupid real life just won't cut me some slack! 

Just because I can't get together shouldn't stop everyone else from playing.  I have been in touch with Karl at The Games Keep and he says that any Saturday in July except the 13th would be okay to play there.  If there is enough interest I can tell him that some people are planning on getting together to play.  Feel free to speak up and see what dates work for everyone!

Hey, is anyone still out there following this thread?  ;D

I wanted to post that I think I am free this coming weekend (July 13-14) and was wondering if anyone wanted to try and get together and play some Mage Wars.  I just picked up the Conquest of Kumanjaro set and am dying to try it out.

Also, I spoke with Karl at the Games Keep and we can have another get together at his store in early August (I am thinking August 3rd or 4th).  He has the new Unholy Tides promo kit available for us!  If anyone is interested please let me know and I can start to finalize the details.

I know we're interested, but retail scheduling is always a shifty thing. I'll look into it.

South Eastern PA Meet-Up August 3rd
« Reply #25 on: July 14, 2013, 11:27:38 AM »
There will be another Mage Wars get together at the Games Keep in West Chester PA on Saturday August 3rd starting at 12pm.  This is going to be another casual get together to meet up and play.  So bring your spellbooks and a good attitude and come on out and join us.  Both newbies and old pros are welcome.   Hopefully once this hectic summer is over I can actually plan a few tournaments along with these general meet-ups.  Please let me know if you are planning on attending, thinking about attending or if you have any questions.  Thanks!

This event has also been posted on Board Game Geek

Well, it doesn't look like there is any interest in a get together this Saturday so I think I am just going to cancel it instead of hanging out in the store all day on the off chance someone will show up.  Keep your eyes out for my next attempt in late August or September.

I'm going to Necro this thread to mention that I'm again looking for players interested in frequent play in and around the Lancaster PA / Philadelphia area.

I have a difficult schedule, but Sundays are usually good, as are Mondays after noon. Hit me up.

I will be at WBC all week in Lanscaster this summer. We can plan on some matches in the open gaming area if you are around.
