RPGAThere has long been a fragile peace between the shadowy forces of Netheri lon one side and the Forest Kingdom of Cormyr and its eladrin al l ies on theother. The Shade Princes, War Wizards, and High Mages have studied eachother's strengths and weaknesses for thousands of years. The only thing thathas kept the two sides from each other's throats is fear of the utterdevastation that an al l-out war between such magical giants would wreak.Now something has disturbed that precarious balance. The power of ShadeEnclave is growing; not even the greatest heroes could prevent the fal l ofElturel . If the forces of l ight don't strike back now, it may soon be too late. . .

EVENTSEvents are l isted grouped by time block. In each time block they aresorted by event type and then reference code.

Event NumberingThe first letter is the time block of when the event starts. The secondletter is the event type:

B - Board GamesC - Computer/Console GamesG - General/Other (e.g. , workshops, panels, etc.)M - Miniatures GamesR - Role-Playing GamesW - Wargames

The third portion, the number, is a unique reference code for the event.Thus, an event with a code HB-265 starts in time block "H" and is a boardgames ("B") event with number 265.

If a table is displaying an orange cone (l ike a small traffic cone!), it meansthe host is sti l l looking for players.

I f you find yourself without a game and are looking for something to do,check out the open gaming areas for a pick-up game or the Video Roomfor movies.
