WARLORD: US OPEN GAMES DAY
Reed Conference Center, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 17 – 18 June 2016
The Warlord Open Games Day is a showcase for all of the tabletop miniature wargames that come out of Warlord Games HQ in Nottingham England, from Bolt Action to Hail Caesar, and even the new games such as Project Z and Konflikt ’47.
The Warlord Open Games Day kicks at off 5 p.m. on Friday, 17 June at the 45th Infantry Division Museum. The museum will be open to Games Day attendees only, allowing them to view weapons, uniforms, vehicles and other unit memorabilia as well as see what the 45th has accomplished while in service to our nation over the past century. The museum will have representatives on hand to answer any questions about the 45th that attendees might have.
After the museum tour we will all head over the Reed Center in Mid West City where registration will open at 7 p.m. so attendees can check in. The first round of the tournaments will begin at 7:30 p.m. and at 8 p.m. the beginner demo tables will start running, all to be concluded by 10 p.m.
The hall reopens at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, 18 June, with all the vendors in place and all demo tables ready to go. We will also start round two of the tournaments. Round three of the tournaments will start at 1:30 p.m., after lunch, and conclude with plenty of time for the tournament players to be able to give the demo tables a try including Mary Profitt and her husband Rickey Morang on hand to show you some painting ideas, as well as lighting models with fiber optics and using LEDs …AWESOME HUH…The hall will stay open until 11:30 p.m. so everyone will get plenty of gaming time.
HAVE A GO TABLES
All the miniatures are provided, along with terrain, and we have table bosses that will be happy to introduce you to whichever games you want to try. And you can try as many as you like!
The game tables will have varying levels of play, from beginner to advanced, for Hail Caesar, Pike and Shotte, Black Powder, Bolt Action, and Beyond the Gates of Antares. Additionally, there will be tables for Judge Dredd, Terminator: Genisys, Project Z and Konflikt ’47.
No previous knowledge of the rules is needed. Just jump in and start playing!
SIGN UP FOR A TOURNAMENT
If you have a painted army and you would like to display your skills as a tabletop general, why not sign up for one of our tournaments. We are running both a Bolt Action and a Beyond the Gates of Antares tournament. We are also having a painting contest. Prizes will be awarded for the tournaments and for the painting contest.
COME AND FIND US
We are less than two months away from Open Games Day in OKC and things are rapidly falling into place with vendors and contributors to the swag bag that will be given to attendees. Geek Nation, Fantasy Arc, and Secret Weapon are just three of the current twelve swag bag sponsors with more coming on board. For vendors we have Whistle Stop (terrain), Kernals and Kandies, My Favorite Jerky by Jerky Direct and Top Deck Games of Tulsa.
