D&D Encounters: Search for the Diamond Staff (June 12th - August 14th)

E-mail Print

Please join us at The Gamer’s Armory on Wednesday Nights for D & D Encounters: Search for the Diamond Staff (beginning June 12, 2013 and running through August 14, 2013) from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm.

During this 10 week season, players will adventure in the Dalelands of the Forgotten Realms.  Their quest is to recover the Diamond Staff of Chomylla, a powerful elven artifact that’s been stolen by orcs.

D & D Encounters is an exciting, weekly program that brings players together to experience a D&D campaign that plays out one epic encounter at a time.
Players will defeat enemies, solve puzzles, and perform heroic deeds! 
Each session only takes 1 - 2 hours to play! You are not required to participate each week to be a part of it so please, feel free to join the group any week you are available to do so!

What to bring with you? You will need a 7 piece set of polyhedral dice for gameplay.
You will also need to create and bring your own 1st level character with you! If you don't have time or don't know how, don't worry, we have some pre-built characters available that you can use!
Ask your DM and they will be happy to get you one! If you have access to the D & D Character Builder, you can create your own character there as well!!
 

Additional GMs are always needed!

What: Flames of War Escalation League

When: March 16, 2013 through May 11, 2013

Where: The Gamer's Armory in Cary, NC

Description/Rules: (provided by Andrew Hall)

This Escalation League will be Late War!
Pick a nationality and stick to it, you may experiment with the various lists of that nation until week 4 when you should settle on a list and stick with it.
Please only fully painted/based stuff on the table. What constitutes a fully painted model is at least 3 colors and basing.
One of the goals of this League is to motivate us all to clean those painting queues out!

Any FOW games that meet the league restrictions and are played at The Gamer’s Armory will count towards the league scores.
During each escalation period, you must play each League game against a different opponent. League days will be held Thursday Nights between 5:00 pm and 9:00 pm,
