*Upcoming events!*

*Refresher Rewelcome [Thursday 5/8 4pm]*

Refresher Rewelcome is Rehappening this ReThursday from 4PM in the Cam Hall
loft and Unigames Clubroom!

For freshers new to the club this semester this is a great chance to come
and play some of our amazing boardgames and meet our existing members!

Of course, this is an event for everybody, so don't be afraid to come down
and join us in playing some boardgames, even if you're and older member!

*We will be doing a pizza run in the evening at $5 a pizza* so make sure to
bring some cash and find our amazing treasurer Jackie on the night if that
interests you.

We look forward to remeeting all our new remembers and having a fun board
games night with all of you.

*Westmarche Opening Night [Friday 6/8 4pm]*

Unigames is running a Westmarche campaign! For the uninitiated, a
Westmarche is a public, drop-in-drop-out D&D campaign where large amounts
of players are able to join in for dungeon crawls and mini adventures, not
having to depend on certain play times or guaranteed player availability!
The world is run by a team of GM's, and updates week by week, giving the
fantasy world a realistic passage of time, so things will change while
you're away. For those wanting to join a campaign, but struggle with
availability or wrangling a whole table, Westmarche is the perfect format
for getting that sweet sweet table time!

*Spire: The City Must Fall One Shot [Monday 9/8 5pm]*

Welcome to the first RPG night of Semester 2! This is Spire: The City Must
Fall, a rules-light RPG system where you play as drow living in the
building/city known as Spire and attempt to subvert the ruling aelfir class
as part of a shadowy cult known as The Ministry.

Spire features some really unique classes like the Vermissian Sage, a
librarian with the ability to travel to sub-dimensional space or the
Azurite, a commerce cleric with the ability to buy *literally* anything for
the right price.

No prior experience of RPG's or the system is needed, just a willingness to
learn and possibly an ability to scheme. Feel free to stop by the clubroom
to read up on the setting and classes but don't worry, our GM's will help
you build a character on the day.

still join our team at bit.ly/Unigains21  and start asking your friends and
family for donations. Can’t wait to see you all there!

We run alternating board game and rpg one shot nights every week during
semester! So keep an eye out on Facebook and Discord for more cool events.

*Fresher Campaigns*

Unigames is once again doing fresher campaigns! If this is your first
semester with Unigames and don't know about fresher campaigns; they're an
excellent opportunity to immerse yourself in one of the core facets of our
club! Learn to play one of the club's many RPG systems, have a great time
and get introduced to like-minded freshers and new friends! We'll pair you
up with an experienced and friendly Game Master who'll teach you to play in
a super accessible environment, so don't worry if you don't have any role
playing experience at all!  The re-freshed signup form can be found at:
https://forms.gle/HZUYsYFxXuA4Xo9D7

Please signup coon so that we can organise your campaign groups as soon as
possible. Please fill in your availability as accurately as possible as
this effects how we will assign your campaign groups. If you have any
special requests such as wanting to be with a friend, please let us know in
the provided field at the end of the form (P.S. if you want to be placed
with a pal make sure both of your availabilities match up so we can pair
you). Finally, if you signed up using our previous form please do so once
again with our sparkly new form as some of the questions have been changed.
We look forward to seeing you in the upcoming weeks!
