Grunt Fantasy Miniature Battles Gaming event @ GOB Retail
Event Details:
Day: Thursday, June 28th
Time: 5 pm to 8 pm.
Cost: Free
Seating: Up to 8 players.
Time: Approx 3 hours.
Grunt Fantasy Miniature Battles was first published in 1996 as the very first game publication by the Guild of Blades Publishing Group. Over the years the game has grown and evolved. With the recent release of the 3rd edition of the game back in print, GOB Publishing together with GOB Retail to host a learn to play game event for Grunt on Sunday, April 15th starting at 12:30 PM.
Grunt Fantasy Miniatures is a fantasy empire building, campaign style miniatures game. Players generate a new army (including rolling up variable game units) and spend points on enhacing their kingdom, then battle each other for victory on the battlefield. During the course of game play your units can gain experience points and levels, you can recruit new units and/or invest into building up other aspects of your kingdom. The player that gains the most victory points by the end of game play wins the battle. Grunt armies are designed to be played over the course of many battles and built up to become stronger, if you can preserve your fighting force during the course of each battle.
Players should register in advance to reserve their position in this event.
Don't worry if you have never played Grunt before. It is easy to learn and designer Ryan Johnson will be hosting the event.

1) A willingness to learn a new game
2) 1d4, 1d6, 1d8
3) A pencil with eraser.
Optional
4) Your own Grunt Rules books, if you have them.
5) Your own customer Grunt Battle Card Deck, if you have one built.
6) Your own miniatures (see below)
What We are Providing
1) A B&W copy of the core rules. Yours to keep for playing.
2) Grunt Army Sheets
3) We'll have some dice and pens to go around.
4) We will have all Grunt books for reference.
5) The Grunt Battle deck for everyone to use.
6) Miniatures or tokens you can use if you don't have your own.
Grunt is a fantasy miniatures game using approximately 25mm scale figures. Players may bring any figures they want, should they wish to bring their own game figures, or we can provide miniatures or tokens for use for the event if you don't have figures of your own. If you opt to bring your own figures, you should ideally bring 21-30 unique figures and up to 30-35 additional figures for Grunts, which can all be of a similar sculpt or design. It really doesn't matter what genre your figures are, what weapons or equipment they are wearing, etc. The figures are merely a table top icon to represent different units within your Grunt army.
Stop by the store to sign up.
Thanks,
Ryan
