Shifting Sands of T'ash-Khan: Dice Chucker returns.

It's time for Dice Chucker! Since we've lost vital members of the gaming group, it's not really feasible to continue with Skyships of Harran at this point, so it's time for a new campaign!
Shifting Sands of T'ash-Khan takes place in the harsh desert realm of T'ash-Khan, a burning sea of sand and scattered stone. Here, humans and the hippo-like Tamus have carved out a civilisation at the very edge of the known world. The story commences with our heroes hiring on as caravan guards. We'll be creating characters and setting the scene on Thursday, and beginning the actual campaign next week.

GeekFest 2015 and Pirate's Day

Two announcements of the most earth shattering importance must be made today!

First, the GeekFest website is now open, and you can go there to find out all that is currently known about Gippsland's premier pageant of geekery! You can even rate posts as 'Huzzah!' 'Woot!' 'Meh' and/or 'Bah!'!
Allow me to quote from the GeekFest page:

For countless eons of time the geekly population of Gippsland was without form and purpose, without organization and without a single, unifying event to bring them together to glorify and praise all forms of geek culture. And then into this darkness strode a shining colossus of colossal shininess, and looked upon this dreary situation and declared ‘Let There Be Geekfest’ in words which bore almost no resemblance to thunder.

            And there was.

            And it was good.

Secondly, I have just concluded negotiations with the masterful management of Coal Creek about running more Pirates Treasure sessions on Pirate's Day (September 28th)
Allow me to quote from the press releasey thing:

In the middle of the Seas of Skullduggery - Skeleton Island, hiding place of Cap’n Rumblebelly’s buried treasure! Around the outside of the sea, the islands of six pirate kings desperate to get their hands on the treasure! Take command of one of the pirate’s ships and try to get to Skeleton Island first to dig up the treasure, and then get it back to your own island to claim it forever! But beware, five other pirates have the same idea as you, and even if you get the treasure, you might not be able to hang onto it!

For further information see the events page (unless you are reading this in the futuristic year of 2015 or something, because by then the contents of that page will have changed. And you will feel such a fool for missing this event!)

Peg Flight: The Great War

Thursday July 3rd sees the return of the highly successful Peg Flight system, as used in our Air Pirates game over easter. Come along and build your own squadron of three great war biplanes from pegs, matches and paddle pop sticks, paint them up, and lead them to victory in the clear blue skies over the Mechanics' Institute floor!
All materials are provided, and what is more, you get to go home with:

• Your squadron of three planes
• A special game die used when you shoot
• Medals for valour (and a pilot badge even if you get wiped out before you can shoot anyone!)
• Chocolate!

Bookings essential via Coal Creek or 03 5655 1811.
