Hey Everybody,
Just wanted to give an update.
I got hooked on MW back in January. It quickly became my main game and I started to get my friends into the game. One of those was the owner of our venue. He saw how well designed the game is and supported me in trying to get the game established at the shop.
For a few months I taught everybody who wanted to play. Most of our games were in apprentice mode with four players on my map. I didn't even get to play many times, I'd just coach. Everybody loved it. We've set Wednesday & Saturday as our Mage Wars days.
Recently the store's first orders arrived and the first batch of product has mostly sold out. This past Saturday we ended up having 7 people playing and a couple watching. The best part: I didn't even have to use my board!
Almost everybody had their own books and we had enough core sets in play so that I actually got to play a full book, 1v1 game.
I was thrilled! When our venue owner came out from his RPG session and saw MW boxes and boards all over the place he was very happy.
It's great to see the work these past months pay off and the venue grow. We're gearing up for league play and hope to start that very soon.
About the only thing I still need to do is submit reports for the ambassador program...
So that's it. Nothing earth shattering I guess. Just wanted to share.
