Bay Area Brawl 2023

[Robotech Master]

I checked it out on Google Maps as I am oft to do. The parking lot is indeed a very small one at the back of the library. The library is at the head of residential street so there is parking that looks to be mostly free down there, but its narrow and you'll need to make sure you're not parking over someone's driveway or gate or something. A few spots down the street seem to have some parking restrictions by day/hour, but I don't think anything covered Saturdays.

Two maps, four armies, and oodles of dice and wound markers are packed and ready to go. See everyone in about 13 hours!

Killo Jr. and I had a great time meeting and throwing dice with everyone today. Thanks for putting this together, cmgames. I'm looking forward to repeating as champ at the next one.

Thanks for the games everyone. Crazy to put some of that stuff down on the table for the first time in 12 years or so.

I think the trip back to Elk Grove took longer than driving down, darn Bay Area evening traffic even on weekends.

In Round 1, Holden played with Blade Gruts, Nerak, Tornak, Grimnak, plus others? (Erin's Army #1)

In Round 2, Erin played with Blastatron, Gladiatron, Major Q10, Krav Maga Agents (Erin's Army #2)
Ziggy won on points.

In Round 3, I played with the Blasts/Glads (Erin's Army #2)
In Round 3, Ben played with Death Chasers of Thesk, Gothlok, plus others (Kurt's Army #2)

Sad that I missed it. I had kid stuff conflicts come up.

How was the library as a venue?

[Killometer]

The library was nice. We had our own space with plenty of room and tables and chairs. Even had our own entrance.

How old is your kid, and are they into 'Scape at all? If they are, maybe bring them to the next get together? I'm hoping to plan something casual in the next couple months. Whatever it is I'll be bringing my 8 year old, and I'm sure he'd love to have another kid there.
