The hotel is located on Dundee rd, right at Route 53, which is perfect for people driving. Below is a list of places within 1.5 miles in either direction.

If you turn left (east) onto Dundee Rd, you’ll find:

Jameson’s Streakhouse (great steaks), Fox and Hound (most likely where we will be gathering Saturday Night), Portillo’s, Chuck E. Cheese (wat?), Burger King, Panera Bread, Noodles & Co, Popeye’s Chicken, Pizza Hut, Dunkin Donuts, McDonald’s, Oberweis, Jimmy John’s

If you turn right (west) onto Dundee Rd, then right on Route 12, you’ll find:

I’m sorry for that.

I’m going to fill it up with a Blood Bowl video featuring a one turn score!

Stupor Bowl

Jonny P — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 19:44:48 +0000

The Stupor Bowl was created to pay homage to one of the greatest NFL Teams of all time, The 1985 Chicago Bears and is run by Mike “Valdric” Muller.

Special rules of this tournament include a Stupor Bowl Shuffle (random special play cards), Windy City Kickoff Table, and of course legendary Star Players of the 2485 Scares Team, Da Freezer, Slim McHamm, Salter Painton, Spike Dingleberry, and Killie Gault.

Stupor Bowl V will be held at Adepticon on Saturday and Sunday, April 21st and 22nd. There will be three games on Saturday and three games on Sunday. There will be individual winners on each day as well as overall winners for all six games. This will allow you to play one day and still have time to enjoy many of the other events at Adepticon!

Each registered participant will receive a limited edition Killie Gault mini, two Adepticon X D6s, a custom dugout, and other freebies in the Adepticon X swag bag.

The tournament build is 1.1 million with a choice of three different skill packs. Tournament will be a resurrection style tournament. So any injuries your team suffers will not carry over to the next game, and any SPPs earned will also be erased. The roster you start the tournament with will be the same for each round you play.

To celebrate the fifth anniversary of the Stupor Bowl and the tenth anniversary of Adepticon, the Scares Star Players are discounting their prices and are guaranteed to play, regardless of whether or not your opponent also brings that star player, so go ahead and put ‘em on your roster!

Prize support is provided by Impact! Miniatures

In addition to two days of Bloodbowl action, there is also Smackswell Street Market. Do have some extra miniatures or other gaming items lying around that you’d like to trade/sell? Bring ‘em to the tournament and put them in the Smackswell Street Market. You never know, your trash might be someone else’s treasure! They don’t have to be Blood Bowl miniatures, feel free to bring any miniatures or other gaming items!

Full rules for Stupor Bowl V can be found here

GenCon Bowl

Jonny P — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 19:44:10 +0000

GenCon is the original, longest running, best attended, gaming convention in the world. For over 44 years, GenCon Indy has been setting the trend and breaking records. Last year, more than 120,103 turnstile and 36,106 unique attendees experienced Gen Con Indy. The biggest complaint we hear is that there is simply too much to do, see, and experience. Get lost in a phantasm of art exhibits. Stare at jaw-dropping costumes, or better yet, wear one of your own. Meet the movers and the shakers in the gaming industry. Check out the newest games and get a sneak peek at the latest editions.

Make sure one of those stops is the annual GenCon Blood Bowl Tournament!

GenCon Bowl will be held on Saturday, August 18th at GenCon in Indianapolis, IN and run by Chaos Cup Committee’s own Mike “Valdric” Muller. There will be four games of intense blood bowl action.
The rule set will be posted on the NAF site soon, but the basics are:

* 4 games of Swiss pairing
* Rosters must be TV 1100
* Any official teams in the LRB 6.0 are welcome, as well as the three new races (Slann, Chaos Pact, and Underworld Creepers.)

Tournament will be a resurrection style tournament.

Any injuries your team suffers will not carry over to the next game, and any SPPs earned will also be erased.

The roster you start the tournament with will be the same for each round you play.

Each participant will receive custom GenCon Bowl D6s and a custom dugout.

Prize support is generously provided by Impact! Miniatures.
