Greetings all,

It's that time of the month again, folks! The bad news is that it means the summer is just flying by, the good news is that it means it's TCASL weekend again! Unfortunately, because it's also CONvergence weekend, I won't be able to join you.

It sounds like we might have a couple of new folks. If you're coming, please let everybody know, so that nobody gets left out!


Details:
Day:
8/13/22
Time: 10:00am - Whenever
Location: Gamezenter [Formerly Fantasy Flight Games Center], 1975 County Road B2 W, Roseville, MN, 55113

Masks-- Highly recommended [ASL isn't worth getting covid over]


On August 7, 1942, marines landed on Guadalcanal. This month's scenario list follows in their footsteps:

Hey folks,

If you're planning to attend TCASL this month, can you please say so ASAP? My convention commitments mean that I'm not going to be able to act as my usual e-mail / discord / BGG / GS bridge and I really don't want to see anyone hung out to dry because nobody shows up.

Thanks!

I can't make it. I'll be out of town as well.

Sorry to hear that! I hope you'll be having fun wherever you are.

We've got at least one confirmed YES from the BGG side. Christian's a good guy with a solid grasp of the rules. I've never met Steve, but he seems nice enough, and I look forward to meeting him sooner rather than later.

Any other takers?
