On Sunday, June 13th the BigGunz-Ne gaming club and Showcase Comics will be holding an open hobby day at their Bunker in the
Granite Run Mall, Media PA.

You can decide what Hobby means, we'll just supply the space and lunch!

Yes, that's right - FREE LUNCH!

The boys in the club got Mike Clark a new grill for Christmas and it needs a workout. We'll be putting out a spread of food including homemade chili, slow smoked chicken, and grilled sausage sandwhiches.

While you're not munching, do what ever gaming type hobby you feel like. If that's gaming, game. If it's painting and modeling, do that. Or learn how to airbrush or make scenery. Or stand around, eat bar-b-que and argue how many melta guns a Vulcanspam list should have.

-We'll have 20 tables with top notch scenery set up for gaming.

-Al Edel will be giving another of his beginning classes on airbrushing. If you're ever wanted to learn about how to use an airbrush for painting miniatures, here's your chance.

-Mike Clark will be giving a lesson on making War Gaming scenery aimed at clubs and stores. As part of this he'll demonstrate how to have fun playing with various types of foam cutting tools. Parts of his current Games Day project may be on hand in various states of partially built, so you can get a preview of what's going to happen in Baltimore in August.

-Play test one or two of the scenarios that will be part of the big game at Baltimore and tell us what you think.

-If you just want to paint and model we will have 4 tables set up for that, free paints, glue, and hobby supplies, and a set of the new Forge World weathering powders to play with.

-Mike Ludwig, Justin Cook, and the rest of the Big Gunz will show people how to ignore all the yucky hobby stuff and play Warhammer all day.

There is absolutely no cost to this event. Free gaming, Free classes, and a Free Lunch!

Bring any game that you want, stay from 10am to 6pm. If any club or individual wants to organize a game, or event, feel free to give us a yell.

More details will go up on the websites at www.BigGunz-NE.com and ShowcaseComics-Games.com, as soon as we figure them out.

Yeah, the free lunch was hard to offer just on principal.) I've read Moon is a Harsh Mistress about 6 times.)

I rationalized it by telling myself I'll sucker everyone down to the store where they can't help but something cool to buy.)

Wow. This makes me wish I was in PA. Damn.

Yay it's on sunday! I'll be there

Please do more sunday events in the future My saturdays are never free :(

Decided to test out lunch recipes for tomorrows tournament. Managed to get a gallon of chili mixed up and in the slow cooker, and 20 lbs of chicken marinade, roasted and into the slow smoker before noon. No clue how many people are showing up for the fantasy tournament tomorrow, but I expect them to be happy campers.)

We swedes never get a free lunch... Wait, oh yes we do, all the time. =o ... But not at events such as these, nor do we get many of the actual events. >.< Missed the one in Stockholm when some guys from GW were to show up for the 10 year aneversary of the swedish GW store in Stockholm or what it was. =<

I'm going to definitely try and be there. It's been so long, it feels like forever, since I've had the chance to get out and play a game.

Mike this sounds awesome, Thanks!! Yet another example of why Showcase is the premire gaming store in the Philadelphia area.
