this is Badass!

I know some of who is involved in the creation and running of Art of War, But who are the people actually responsible for Art of War?

Just Curious, I like to know who is who and are actual owners or workers as it can get kind of confusing for me cuase unless I have met you more than 5 times I have a real bad time remembering names... I'm sorry if I mess peoples names up occasionally, Add in the screennames and i'm really bad. Unless you do something increadibly cool or stupid then bam I remember the name but its because of weird word/action/picture associations i get being dyslexic...

O snap, Art of War is officially opening tomorrow at Noon

Bring your armies and GET SOME!

The day has finally arrived. Art of War, Gaming and Miniatures will have its Grand Opening Celebration this Saturday, June 5th. The store will open at noon, and we’ll stay there until all seven of us collapse. We have a number of events planned, and welcome any and all to come by and check out the new place. First, the important stuff:

Art of War
8265 Beechmont Ave.
Cincinnati, OH 45255
513-474-4263
www.aowcincinnati.com

If you sign up on the website there is a coupon that is good for 3d6% off of your first purchase. When you sign up the specials tab becomes visible and the coupon is in there. Also, signing up will allow you access to the forums, where we are populating news, modeling, and informational articles.

Now onto the events for the weekend:

Volunteers from the 501st Legion, the World’s Definitive Imperial Costuming Organization, will also be on hand to show everyone the true might of the Empire. Any Star Wars enthusiast should not miss seeing them.

The two guys who run 40K Basement will be on hand to cover the opening and throw down with their "Army in a Weekend" forces. This is a complete army they took from NIB to completed in on weekend!

All day --> We welcome all to come and enjoy a demo of any of the following games: Firestorm Armada, HeroClix, Star Wars Miniatures, Uncharted Seas, and War of the Ring.

Noon – whenever --> Warhammer 40K Never Ending Bug Hunt.
There will be over 9000 points of Tyranids on the table, and we challenge anyone to come and help destroy the swarm. You put 1000pts on and kill what you can, scoring points for everything that you kill. Anyone can join the game at any point, and can leave and come back. Each time you want to put a 1000pt force down, it’ll cost a dollar. Whoever has the most points by the end of the day will get a gift certificate for the total that this event brought in. Spectators welcome!!

3PM --> We will be hosting a Star Wars miniatures event. The format is 100pts Dynamic Duo. This will be an Iron Man style tournament, and will take place on tiles, not full maps.

Also we will be grilling out in the parking lot. Stop by, grab some free food, a balloon for the kids, and see what this new store is all about!

I should be able to drop by, as I'm going to be at a grad party on the East side Saturday.

Bryan: I have a **gasp!** fully painted Malifaux army if you guys want to use it for demoing purposes. Lemme know.
