So Gencon 2010 is over and I can honestly say this year’s con was a bit different that years past. For starters I wasn’t signed up for eight hours  of events per day and secondly this was my first Gencon where Warmachine was my game of choice.  This year I got my first taste of Warmachine at Gencon and I can say it was a little crazy playing in a tournament from 9pm to 5am but it was a blast. This year we saw the WoW TCG displayed by their new owner and they seem to have it together at least initially. Gencon 2010 also saw classics games with new releases including Pulp City and Malifuax.  I personally didn’t pick up any of either game but I have a list of Pulp City ready to be purchased pending a demo of the new rule changes. Which brings us to the new game dare I say the new hotness, it still to early to tell but judging by the purchases of some of the local guys it has a shot at being one of our go to games. The game in question would be MERCS.

We now have our own custom “Print on Demand”  store! There is not much there at the moment but in the coming months we will be adding more branded items and possible special limited time items for upcoming events. The store can be found at the link below, all profits from the store got to help us run future events that are currently in the planning stages.

Starting in August for players that wish to participate we are going to be offering a player ranking system using the ELO format commonly used to rank international chess players. The system will initially cover Warmachine and Hordes and will then branch our into other games as well.

This is the first of what will be come a weekly post about the goings on the the Southside of Indy including the Greenwood area. I will strive to scour the web and the stores themselves to bring the most current and useful informatin about upcoming events and whatever else I feel needs to be told. So without further delay here is the News for the Southside…

Malifaux taking off on Thursdays at the South Side GP

Straight from the Greenwood Game Preserve’s Facebook group it’s official Malifaux is growing in popularity enough so that Thursdays have become the dedicated night for Malifaux players to throw down in the creepy world of Malifaux. I personally haven’t had a chance to check out the Malifaux crew at the store but I know a lot of the players from the Warmachine\Hordes group are getting into Malifaux and I have nothing but positive words to say abut those guys. What other reason do you need? Interested in Malifaux? Stop by and check them out!

Greeting, Sryth here and I would first like to welcome our new forum members and thank them for having a little faith in an idea that was long over due. Secondly I would like to announce Circle City Gamer’s leap into the world of web 2.0, yup that’s right you can now follow us on Twitter and for you Facebook users I have setup a group called Circle City Gamers of all things. In addition to all the web 2.0 goodness we have also been sending out e-mails and posting various forums about Circle City Gamers in order to Get the Word Out to as many gamers as possible.

Finally we will be making an appearance at Whosyercon this year. I will be running some events and doing my best to Get the Word Out.

So…

Until Next Time…
