This weekend we had another historical miniature gaming day playing General Quarters Version 3, or 3rd edition. 🚱

This version of General Quarters takes the accuracy and playability they’re already known for, and amplifies it- meaning a smoother, more realistic game!

This third edition’s release coincided with the 30th anniversary of the system, and in those 30 years they’ve built a system we’ve come to know and love.

We host historical gaming days on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of every month at 11am. We welcome all players, at all experience levels, and we provide the game and supplies!

Come experience history with us. 📖✹

Join us in a Magic: The GatheringÂź time portal not to a plane or
period in Magic’s history, but to YOUR history as a magic player!

That time where you had no idea what’s a “good card” and what’s a
“smelly garbage card”. The period where all you owned was
whatever your parents would get for you or what you could afford after chores.

The rules are simple: 100 card pool, build a 60 card deck, you can trade with anyone in the event. Play as much or as little as you want. Complete the "curriculum" objectives to earn prizes.

This nostalgic gaming experience is open to all experience levels, and all ages. Sealed prizes for winners, and everyone will get to take home their decks (except store owned lands)!

Have questions? Let us know!
