Northern Colorado X Wing Night: Loveland, Fort Collins, Greeley

By Folkenhellfang, in X-Wing Organized Play

Hello!

The Rogue's Roost is a Gaming store located in Loveland, and they are starting up a monthly X wing night with official prize support from Fantasy Flight Games. We are currently shooting for the third Thursday of each month, meaning the first official meeting will be April 16th at 6:30 pm. Please leave a response here if you have any questions about the format we will use.

I look forward to hearing from you!

I used to play over at Grand Slam when I stayed in Colorado a few summers ago, but X-Wing wasn't especially huge back then. Has the game picked up much since then?

I think the NoCo community is pretty healthy. There is a group in Fort Collins, and we hope to give players another opportunity to play X Wing on a different night of the week.

I mentioned that we have official prize support, but I am hoping to create a group that is welcoming to all kinds of players. From first timers to tournament veterans, everyone is welcome.

If you already have a squadron or just want to try it out, we have a large collection to help out. We even have the Epic ships that we are planning on using.

How long do you expect these game nights to go? And how many people are you expecting?

If it's at all possible, I'll try to make it down in April. Sounds fun!

Thanks for posting about this. As long as nothing comes up, I shoud be able to make it in April as well.

Bumping this with a reminder about the first official X-Wing night at Rogue's Roost in Loveland tomorrow at 630pm.

I will definitely be there.

Thanks, Lee. Looking forward to seeing you there!

Ailo, We are planning on staying until 10:00 pm, hope to see you.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by last night. Big thanks to the Rouge's Roost for making it possible to give out some cool Promo cards and making space for us on one of your busiest nights.

We are planning the Spring Tournament (Swiss MoV Format) to be held on Sunday, May 3rd! Check in will be at 1:30 pm, there are eight spots. We hope to hear from you soon.

Our next X Wing night will be on Thursday, May 14th, same time!

Wahoo what an awesome night!!!

I had a blast, I should have came more prepared but at the end I eeked out a win (by the hair on my chin) using 2 blue squadron b-wings with HLC and 2 rookie x-wings woot woot.

We had 4 people playing total

There was also one fly by guy that popped in asking what was going on, no kid this isnt "attack wing" with ships.. lol but ill still count him as stopping by!

We had 2 others that have played before, and i think they were going to play, but when it came time to get into it they decided to occupy their time elsewhere making more room for us.

So 7 people total? Not a bad turnout for the first night and I got a sweet promo card.. its Han and now when I fly my Falcon I'll be doing it in style pew pew pew

Sign me up for the sunday Tournament thinggy or should I stop by the Rogues Roost and signup there?

PS the "Roost" was an awesome spot, and the guys there were very helpfull in making me feel awesome!.. wait that sounds dirty when i reread it, but I digress, it was a blast and i will definately be there next time ( if the wife lets me )

Maybe next time we could setup some scenarios, theres tokens I havent used yet.

Agreed! Thanks to the Rogue's Roost for hosting their first X-Wing game night. One thing on the date for the Spring tournament - that is the same date as the big event at Wings over the Rockies in Denver. You may have so players going to that event and not coming to this one. But then again, just keeping the Roost event very casual might be a good thing. I will let the players at the Monday group in Fort Collins know about the event!

I couldn't throw an evade in our game to save my life. I had a chance on that last turn - should have done a 4 straight instead of the 2 and prevented you having a shot while being able to fire out the rear arc of my Firespray. Oh well - it was a fun game. Thanks guys! See you next month if not before then.

Thanks to the Denver crowd who came out last night to give our X Wing night a look. We will be at the Rogue's Roost next Thursday, May 21st, at 7:00 pm.

As to our spring tournament ambitions, Wings over the Rockies took its toll on our event. With that in mind, we are going to reschedule it. Let us know what would work for your schedule, but keep in mind that this size event will have to be a weekend affair. There is a lot of flexibility in when we can hold the tournament, so let us know!

Thanks to the good Loveland folks who were gracious hosts in the Roost.

We had a great time and are looking forward to coming back next week!

p.s. Either the 1st or 2nd weekend in June would work for me, regarding the 'spring' tournament ;)

Do you all still meet on Thursdays in Loveland? New to area and need to find a place to play on Tues, Thur, or the weekend.

Let's bump this.

We have plans for tonight at 6:30. The owners were going to post some info on their Facebook page. Hope to see you guys and talk about the new ships!

Been busy with home improvement pain past coupla weeks, but should be lightening up soon.

Will try to be there next week!

(and I do wish the new ships would come out already...go Bossk!)

Had a new guy show up last week, July 16th, so there is new interest for sure. We are doing Imperial Assault this week, but if you guys are coming let us know so we can plan and accommodate you guys!
