Anyone planning on being at Gamesday this Saturday.

[
Be pure in mind, body and spirit. As the water flows over you, let your hate flow through you. As the lost water is spilt, let us spill the blood of our foes. As the water dries, let us harden our hearts to fear. We are the Dark Angels, the chosen of the Emperor, the holy knights of Caliban. The blood of the Lion flows through our veins. His strength beats in our hearts. His spirit resides within us.

Not bothering.
We had huge displays at Baltimore and Chicago GD for the last 3 years. With Ed gone, the bean counters are running things. I can't spend thousands of dollars and put in hundreds of hours of work like we used to do, just for a T-shirt. And that's what myself and my club were offered this year, just a t-shirt.
Not a lot of veteran events.
No retailer track.
too far to drive.

....and lo!.....The Age of Sigmar came to an end when Saint Veetock and his hamster legions smote the false Sigmar and destroyed the bubbleverse and lead the true believers back to the Old World.

It has gone down hill. I still remember when we had a official party after the event for all the staff and volunteers that worked the event. Won't be the same without you sitting on the bars patio, like we always did in Baltimore.

Damn, homeboy is paying gas, room, and has to buy you a $25+ figure? That is cold.
Keep a strong pimp hand.

We'll be in the Community Tables section. I'm not sure where exactly in that section. We'll also have at least one large banner with our logo on it so we should be easy to find (also there's a smoke machine built into the table so that might help).
