Gunslinger Games Relocates

Gunslinger Games is moving to newer, bigger and better digs! After a successful launch, owners Russ and Vincent announce their new location:

Gunslinger Games
10354 Miller Rd.
Dallas TX 75238

Contact information for GsG remains:
214-553-5873
Gunslinger Games on Facebook
Gunslinger Games on Twitter
Gunslinger Games on the Web

After a rough couple of years for hobby retailers in North Texas, the success of scrappy, customer-friendly Gunslinger Games is easy to cheer; remember that GsG will host the climactic Warhammer Fantasy North Texas Storm of Magic Event Series Megabattle in April, with a new painting contest and 40K event to celebrate their new location upcoming even sooner (watch for those announcements separately), Astronomi-Con Dallas practice-play every Thursday night, open tables available almost anytime during store hours, and a discount on your special order requests!

January Texas Toy Soldier Storm of Magic Arcane Fulcrum Terrain Painting Contest

Participants in the North Texas Storm of Magic event series may this month model and paint a Storm of Magic objective for sponsoring retailer Texas Toy Soldier! Arcane Fulcrums are the key feature in Storm of Magic games--they provide power to control the swirling winds of magic, additional defense for the spellcasters in control of them...and the objectives which must be seized to win the game! And while these Arcane Fulcrums can be wildly more unique and imaginative than traditional buildings, forests, ruins and hills that comprise Warhammer Fantasy terrain--they are still *terrain*--and who better to judge terrain pieces than Allen at Texas Toy Soldier:

January 2012: Texas Toy Soldier -- Storm of Magic Arcane Fulcrum Painting Contest: Participants may submit an Arcane Fulcrum Terrain objective model of their choice any time from January 1, 2012, through close of business Saturday, January 28, 2012, where submissions will remain on display through January 31. There will be an entry fee of $5 per participant, but there is no limit on the number of entries a participant may enter at that fee. Models entered must be primarily Citadel Arcane Fulcrum kits, other Citadel Terrain kits converted to act as a Storm of Magic Arcane Fulcrum objective (see SoM supplement for details), or other qualifying Terrain kit purchased from Texas Toy Soldier and so converted (only non-Citadel Terrain kits entered need be TTS purchases, but see following). Prizes of Texas Toy Soldier gift certificates based on the amount raised by entry fees will be awarded--and TTS will double the amount of entry-fee-generated prize money! Awards will be given for Best Arcane Fulcrum, Best Conversion and Best Dedicated Sponsor/Event Arcane Fulcrum: hobbyists who present with their terrain piece entry a valid receipt showing proof of purchase for that entry at the sponsoring retailer after the beginning of the Storm of Magic Event Series November 1, 2011, qualify for this additional prize from this month's sponsor, Texas Toy Soldier! Winners will be announced in store and at http://www.adeptusnorthtexas.com in February 2012.

Lone Wolf GT February 10-12, 2012

North Texas is fortunate to have one of the longest-running, most consistent and most outstanding independent Warhammer Fantasy tournaments in the country right in our backyard in the Lone Wolf GT, celebrating it's tenth annual iteration February 10-12, 2012 at the Arlington Convention Center.

The larger venue has allowed the Lone Wolf to expand, meaning there are still spaces available for this usually-sold-out event; registration is at http://www.lonewolfgt.com !

December Comic Asylum Storm of Magic Unit Painting Contest

Participants in the North Texas Storm of Magic event series may this month model and paint an objective-defending Warhammer Fantasy Battles Unit for sponsoring retailer Comic Asylum! Units may be submitted through close of business Thursday, December 29--but the earlier the better, for display!--and must meet army book minimums, be no larger than 15 models unless the minimum is higher, may (but are not required to) include Champion, Musician, Standard Bearer or other entry options, and must consist primarily of Citadel miniatures. The entry fee of $10 is per modeler, not Unit submitted (meaning multiple completed Units may be entered), will go toward prizes of store gift certificates, and a special award will go to any Unit purchased from sponsoring retailer Comic Asylum since the event series began November 1! See additional details or restrictions in the master North Texas Storm of Magic Event series listing below, or see any friendly Comic Asylum gaming employee...and good fortune, generals: the Storm of Magic continues to gather, and a stalwart Unit to hold your arcane fulcrum could turn the day!
