Origins is Almost Here

Posted by Ranillon on 22. June 2010 22:13

Origins starts tomorrow -- although we won't be offering any events until Thursday (which is when the convention really gets going).  We've been hurrying to get everything ready and that includes all the loot we are giving out this year.

Everyone of the tournaments -- The Pairs Tournament on Thursday, the Rogue Trader Tournament on Saturday, and the Eight-Army Tournament on Sunday all come with trophies for the winners and extra prizes.  The biggest goes to the winner of the RTT -- a large Grand Champion Trophy and a Space Marine Battalion box.

We are also offering prizes for the Apocalypse game -- every strategic point you control at the end of the game gives a gift certificate to the Soldiery, a shop here in Columbus.  Never fear, if you are only in town for the event you can stop by their booth and use it there before you leave.  We are also seeing if we can get free pizza for the game.  Yum! 

It is the Armoury in Pickerington that is providing the extra prizes for our biggest event, the RTT.  The winner as I said gets a Space Marine box, Best General the new Eldar Fire Prism/Nightspinner, Best Sportsman the new IG Manticore/Deathstrike, and Best Painting the Foundation Paint Set.

And, remember, just showing up for one of our games gets you some free 40KOrigins.com dice!

 We have our own "area" this year in the Miniatures Hall -- back toward the far right corner.  You can't miss us, in part because we are bringing a new giant banner to point out where we are. 

So, stop by even if you are not set on playing any of our games -- I bet we can change your mind when you see what we have on offer!
