Warriors Weekend is a two day gaming event that benefits the charity
Pilgrim Bandits which helps veterans. Board, role-playing, and tabletop gaming were all featured. It was held at the
Bay Street armories in Victoria BC. It is quite the facility and the officers mess was open for drinks as well!
Here is where the majority of the action happened.
I was mostly in an eating mess in the upstairs that had an X-Wing tournament.
It also had a homegrown rules game with interesting rules and fantastic scenery.
On Saturday I tried to generate interest for a Guildball tournament but many other games took president for people. It ended up being a showcase with two games. Interest was generated though so perhaps more will play this great game.
I then broke out Gaslands for a first try with the fellow I played Guildball with and really like the simple rules and fun decision making.
On Sunday I ran a Malifaux tournament with four players and had a fun experience against different crews using different mixes of models.
If another one was organized I would participate and run more games.
Edit: around $1200 was raised for Pilgrim Bandits. Bravo to all organizers and attendees!
