Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition Living Forgotten Realms (LFR) Tables. We usually have 2 tables going - one starts at 5pm and one at 6pm. LFR games are for our more experienced D&D players. If you're interested in playing in an LFR adventure - check out the details on the Wizards web-site. We take sign-ups to reserve spots at these tables - so call the store to book a spot - 604-261-4588. For our newer players or those of you with less time on your hands, at 7pm we will be running a Dungeon Delve. A Dungeon Delve is a shorter 1.5 - 3 hour single encounter adventure. The encounters string together each week to provide a complete adventure if you can make it in each week (but don't worry if you can't). It helps if you can bring in a character already, but we can help you build one if your not sure how (just come in a bit early). Each month the level of the characters required changes, so call the store to book a spot and find out what level character to bring. | ||

League play on Sunday from approximately Noon till 3:00pm. League play is casual - you can arrive late, get in a few games and leave early if needed. Most players tend to show up around 1pm. Due to other events starting on Sunday afternoon around 4pm, we ask players to make room if needed (i.e., if you are still playing when the other event is supposed to start - please allow the other game to begin). | ||

Pokemon League Play We have an official Pokemon League - come join us for some Pokemon fun. This month we are using the unlimited format - meaning you can use cards from any Pokemon set. Bring your own 60 card deck containing any amount of basic energy cards and up to 4 copies each of any other card from any set. (We have pre-constructed decks for sale in the store if you don't have a deck.) Play different opponents and earn points - 10 points per game with 10 bonus points if you win. Earn enough points to get prizes! This is casual / league play - it is not a sanctioned tournament and will not earn you any ratings points. For more information on league play - please refer to the Pokemon-TCG web-site. Entry fee: Free!!! Prizes: Based on your point totals - the more you play, the more you get. For example at 110 points you earn a special 2-3 card booster pack. You don't have to get all 110 points on the same day - come back each week and keep adding to your point total. League play on Sunday from approximately Noon till 3:00pm. League play is casual - you can arrive late, get in a few games and leave early if needed. Most players tend to show up around 1pm. Due to other events starting on Sunday afternoon around 4pm, we ask players to make room if needed (i.e., if you are still playing when the other event is supposed to start - please allow the other game to begin). Start: 2:30 pm

Pokemon Booster Draft Our un-official release party to celebrate Platinum: Supreme Victors Entry: $15 Each player will receive 3 booster packs of the new set. Players will be seated in "draft pods" of 5-8 players. On queue each player opens one pack - picks a card - and passes the rest to the player on their left. From the pack you are passed, you select one card and pass the remaining. Continue until all the cards haev been picked. Then we do the same with the second pack, but we pass to the right. Third pack is back to the left. After drafting, you will have 30 cards which are yours to keep. The store will provide basic energy that you can add to your deck. Each player makes a 40 card deck from the cards they drafted (you do not need to use all of your 30 cards). We then play an age-bracketed tournament using 4 prize cards per game instead of 6. After the tournament, additional booster packs will be awarded to the winners in each age bracket. The number of packs will depend on the number of players that we get. | ||
