Apologies for what may be a double post - Arneson Game details

[chirine bakal]

Hello!

I'm not sure if the cut-and-paste I did as a reply worked, so here's
the details of our game again:

"Yarrrrgh, me buckos! It be the time o' the year when we sets sail
once again on the High Seas of Tekumelyani Adventure, and celebrates
the life and times of our dear old Captain Harchar of the Blazoned
Sail Clan, that devilishly handsome seafaring rogue and Honest
Merchant Seaman!"

In short, it's time once again for the annual David L. Arneson
Memorial Maritime Miniatures Mayhem Event; Dave played the infamous
sea captain Harchar in Prof. M. A. R. Barker’s Tekumel games for many
years, and we like to remember him with an annual Tekumel miniatures
game. This year, our third annual outing will be held on Saturday,
April 9th, 2011, at the Fantasy Flight Games Event Center in
Roseville, Minnesota. The event starts at noon, and goes until
everyone is too tired to laugh any more.

The address is 1975 Oakcrest Avenue, Suite 10; for more information
on the center, have a look at their website:

We have booked the upper Mezzanine level for the event, as befits the
high standards of gaming that Dave set. (That's our story, anyway, and
we're sticking to it.) We'll bring all the needful, and all you need
to do is show up and have fun.

The basic plot of the game will be the same as the infamous "Saving
Serqu's Sisters", or "Romp In The Swamp" we played at our Annual New
Year’s Day game event; the idea is to save General Serqu's two sisters
from A Horrible Fate at the hands of the terrible Hlutrgu. The last
time around, these little rubbery nasties had it all their own way
against the heavy infantry of the Legion of Serqu, Sword of the
Empire, but this time around they'll have to contend with the intrepid
Captain Harchar, his equally intrepid daughter Malia the Pirate
Princess, and a couple of their friends like Carolyn, the Pirate Queen
of Butrus. (If ye thinks ye detects A Theme, matey, ye'd be right on
course, belike!)

There will be more boats, more swamp, more mayhem, more swamp, and a
lot more fun for all and sundry as the Aethervox Gamers and their
guests take on the best that Howard Fielding and the Tekumel Project
can throw at them. We’re going to run this game several times in the
course of the day so as to let everybody play different roles, too.
