COMIC CARNIVAL EAST Battletech in May!

April 29th, 2010

SATURDAY MAY 1st at 11:30 AM to 5:00 PM League Event #25: New Contracts “Old vendettas aren’t” 

      Players will take contracts following the recent Scrimmage on Galatea while other players have traveled to the distant world of Bryant in Capallan Space (House Liao) in order to take on a Protective Contract and now need to worry about repairs and continuing their defense and perhaps getting in a little digging of their own.

     Bring your Mechs and record sheets.  Cost for leagues is $10.00 per player per year and is an annual membership.  Players should bring a pencil, two different color six-sided dice, two ten-sided die if they have them and a clip-board.   The Game Master (GM) will have loaner Mechs for anyone who wishes to play.  Feel free to come-by and have some fun.  These loaners are just as good as everyone else’s Mechs so you will not be at any disadvantage!  If you come late, do not worry, we can still get you into the action.

Saturday May 15th at 11:30 A.M. to 5:30/6 PM 

Battletech League Event #26

League Event #27 :

“Bringing Down the House / OR Grinder Full details TBP in 2 weeks”  

      Beginning of a new series of missions involving some freinds the players did not know they had, and some enemies too! However, this event and the details associated with it are tentative and may change.  I will send an update if they do.  Please plan for what is posted and I will notify the group if needed.
