London - UK

By LoneWanderer, in 3. AGoT Organized Play

So, let's get another session organised.

Which upcoming weekend dates work for everyone?

I'm going to get in touch with Piers to see if he can hook us up with another advance booking of the St Chris and it'd be good to see any/all of the non-Londoners again.

Weekend of April 23rd is a non-starter for me. Everything else is fair game.

Discuss.

i probably won't be able to make any April meetup - exam season and all that - sorry :( . I'll try to come to a May meetup if it's early-ish in the month, and I'll definitely be up for a mid-late June meetup.

Hi guys,

The week end of the 23rd isn't good either for me and next Sunday doesn't look good. But apart from those issues I am game for a meetup.

Hiya,

Yeah 22nd/23rd is no good for me either. Neither is any weekend before that really. Anything else is grand though!

I'd prefer a May 7th/8th meetup, because I have exams on the 2nd on May....

I'm just seeing if St Christopher's will take a booking for Sat 7th May. Will update you all soon.

Good work, thanks for that.

Are you going to be at the next meetup? I wouldn't mind having a chat about (1) your arrangements with our regular venues and (2) buying any of your cards that you're parting with.

Still waiting.

Happy to give you the details of the pubs we've used. I'll e-mail you a list of all the card sets I have. I want to pass them on as a job lot rather than a pick and mix basis.

Sad to hear you'll be leaving us for good... Better make the most out of it next time then ;)

Concerning your cards, I think we should buy them all as a group and share them between ourselves. Any leftovers could be kept for newbies getting into the game. What do you guys think?

See you soon,

Yeah, that sounds like a reasonable plan.

The only real holes in my collection (third Core Set and half a Martell expansion aside) are the Clash of Arms cycle and a few of the Defenders of the North packs.

Yeah, seems like a good idea Kalindas. I'm still missing quite a few cards, so would be good to share them out among us.

Hi all

I've booked St Christopher's Lounge Bar for Saturday 7th May from 12pm to 6pm. I have the following cards for sale:

2 x Core sets, 1 X Princes of the Sun, 1 X Lords of Winter, 1 X Kings of the Sea, All 6 of the Clash of Arms chapter packs and all 6 of the King's Landing expansion packs. We can sort out a price we all agree is reasonable.

Good stuff, looking forward to it.

Will you be joining a few games?

Argh! Unfortunately I won't be able to make this one now. Got some old uni mates in town for the weekend (and they're not the sort who play geeky card games!) so I doubt they'll appreciate a whole day of me playing AGOT!

Hope you all have a good day though - keep me posted on what's going on with Magus' cards.

Will definitely be up for sharing (both the payment and the cards) - I'll also be arguing on behalf of Michael, who won't be able to make it (exam revision).

You're the lucky one. All of my old uni mates live in London, I have to tell them that I'm going to Armwrestling Society to cover up my closet geekitude.

Ha! Well I've got one of them watching the HBO series (which is amazing btw, despite a few minor complaints), so it's a start.

When it comes to arguing over cards, I'd like shotgun on any Greyjoy milling cards (Wharf Rats and such) - I'm dedicated to creating a tournament-viable mill deck. I'm positive it can be done. City plots wouldn't go amiss either, but I think they'll be some squabbling over those!

Yeah, anticipating that the real wrangling will be over the chapter pack / core set singles.

Either way, we're all gentlemen, so I'm sure we can work something out. Even if we have to Rotisserie draft the lot.

Michael says he wants Castellans and Pyromancer's Caches.

Vague plug posted over on BGG. Let's see if that does anything...

I was at London on Board today - and it seems like there are actually a fair number of people there who have played/might be interested in playing Thrones. It might be worthwhile to advertise Thrones on there......

ORLY?

That would be awesome news.

I remember hawking the core-set around there when I first bought it and getting very few interested faces. But, if things have changed, then that would be good times.

I'm actually hoping to go to one of the weekend sessions in a couple of weeks time. I might make a bit of a plug for it on the forums there to see if it gets any attention.

I'm going to 3rd weekend gamign for sure, probably not 4th weekend gaming though. Exam season is not fun :(

So... would anyone be up for a June meetup? May I tentatively suggest a meetup on the 18th? :D

18th is good for me! I may even have found a new player! Woot!
