Tabletop Gaming

Posted Mon Nov 02, 2009 12:31am

Tabletop Gaming is coming back to ACen 2010! Just like last year, we’re a 24-hour department, so if you have a need for a late-night Apples to Apples game we’re there for you!

Our Magic: The Gathering booster draft, the largest recurring Magic: The Gathering event of its kind in North America, will be back, as will several other M:TG tournaments. We’ll be running even more collectible card game tournaments such as Yu-Gi-Oh!

For those of you who love RPGs, we’ll have Living Forgotten Realms featuring the Dungeons and Dragons 4^th Edition ruleset.Read more
