OK, i was informed today that my FLGS is having a little Xmas shin'dig tomorrow! As i will be in town anyway while my girlfriend is in work (hehehe) i'll be going down...

There will be fun little games, free mince pies, and maybe a pub trip afterwards for the older players.

The interesting part is the staff quiz...

I'm not sure of the exact catorgories but i'm assuming there will be rules questions and general fluff questions.

Now... the players will get to ask staff questions, if the staff member does not know the question, then the player gets a free go on the "lucky dipz bitz box" to get a random piece of plastic/metal that could come in very handy...

Would anyone care to post any obscure rules/fluff questions that i could use to get me some free bitz?

If anyone posts, and i use the question, i'll get back to you after Xmas to tell you if i won anything, and what i won

Thanks in advance!

who is thorek ironbrow's assistant at the forge?

don't ask this to a dwarf player lol

On the subject of the Dwarfs, there's tons of historical bits. All the fallen holds have questions you can build. For example:

In what year did Karak Ungor fall, and what is it now called?

-1500 IC and Red Eye Mountain

This contest seems kinda easy.
For example:
Step 1 – Pick a random rulebook.
Step 2 – Open the timeline page.
Step 3 – Pick a random historical event.
Step 4 – Memorise it.
Step 5 – Find a staff member who dosen't play that army and ask him that question.
Step 6 – Get your prize.

I mean really the odds of them knowing all the fluff in all the books is beyound slim.

Oooh, there's tons of fun in this...

Name the Elector killed by Gorbad Ironclaw: Count Eldred

How Many Pheonix Kings has Malekith outlived: 7

Name the capital of the Imperial province of Stirland: Wurtbad

Just a few...

If you can have a look at the OnG book. Find an obscure goblin that served a warlord and memorise both their names. There are so may they can't know them all.
