Games Plus Miniatures Auction Coming Up Oct. 6

This weekend many of us here in Chicago will be making the pilgrimage to Games Plus, an excellent suburban game shop that's hosted many of our game nights. Oct. 6 Is their twice-annual miniatures game auction, and it's a fantastic opportunity to gamers to get their hands on miniatures, terrain, hobby supplies, rulebooks and more for very attractive prices.

I'd hazard a guess that most of the projects and games we've run over the years -- from our Song of Blades & Heroes campaigns to our 28mm Mech Attack convention games -- have been catalyzed by cheap pick-ups from the game auction. It's worth the drive if you're anywhere near northern Illinois on Sunday!
