So it is now 12:30 and we will be starting the next time slot for all the FREE RPG Day events. This hour we have Dragon Age, Savage Worlds, Arcanis, and a pick up game of Dungeon Crawl Classic! From where I am standing, I can also see Dave setting up for a demo of Castle Ravenloft, the board game, Thunderstone the deck building game, and Ascension the deck building game.
So just to let people know, we have 6 players with a game master in Savage Worlds, 6 players with a game master in Dragon Age, 4 players and a game master in Arcanis, and 7 players with a DM in Dungeon Crawl Classics. So many games and so much more to come today.
We will also start our version of the D&D Live Action Event! Come in and play as a Wizard, Warlock, Fighter, Ranger, Cleric, or Monk. Take on the Crazy Cultists and there master: either the Evil Wizard or Evil Samurai!
Don't forget, the more events you play in the better the bonus on your prize die roll. We have some great FREE prizes for FREE RPG Day, but to get the really, really, really good prizes, you need to participate in events.
We also have some great samples of some fantastic new tokens made by Dapper Devil! If you have not seen these, you might want to take a look. We have some here, but I know there are so many more out there. Check them out at Dapper Devil. They also make some really cool Magic the Gathering Tokens, so come in and see a sample of them as well!

FREE RPG Day Saturday June 18, 2011 Today
Welcome intrepid adventurers!
Here there be DRAGONS!
Abandon hope all ye who enter here!
Beware of dragons, for you are crunchy and go good with ketchup!
Beam me up Scotty.
No matter what catch phrase you like, we will be playing games all day today that might fit into one of these! Have you wanted to try out a different RPG, maybe play an old favorite.... then it is time to play!
Right now we have three games playing; Prime Directive: a Star Trek 3.5 adventure, D&D 4th Edition in the Shadowfell, and Aspect, a very different fantasy RPG. We also have a full packed schedule of events all day, as well as pick-up games going on that are now in the schedule.
Many people came in costume already today. We have a Pathfinder Doll, a guy with faerie wings, a skeleton knight, Ash from Pokemon, a Star Fleet Captain, a Cthulhu detective, a gargoyle, a serving wench, and a noble squire. We are hoping to see some more players in costume as the day goes on.
Check out the schedule of events on our website http://www.gamersgambit.com/ or on our blog http://ddenflgs.blogspot.com/2011/06/free-rpg-day-saturday-june-18-2011.html
We will have many pictures on the blog, facebook, and twitter as the day continues, but for the best experience you should stop in and play! We are hoping to have enough copies of each adventure as people play in them, but we also have a table set up with many more free books. We only ask that you take one of each so others can enjoy as well.
