Game Over - Assassin's Creed III

/
Desmond has been through quite a bit. He has lived the life of Altaïr and found out about the Templars and the golden apples. He then lived as Ezio whom fights to avenge his family, but learns of the greater battle for the world. He gains control of Apple of Eden, uses it to avoid the Templars, and then hides it beneath the Colosseum in Rome. He then learns of a temple that can save humanity in New England. He is one man that has experienced two other lives, and now must experience a third. He must see how Connor (or Ratonhnhaké:ton) lived and fought in order to find the key to access the one thing that can save humanity. And from here I will talk about the story, and only the story of Assassin's Creed III. There will be some spoilers to the game, but the spoilers will more focus on Desmond's part of the game and not really Connors. Not that I can really spoil how the American Revolution ended. None the less, you have been warned.

Adventurer's Quarter Grand Opening

/

About a month ago Arvada, CO got a new store in it's Olde Town district. This store, called Adventurer's Quarter, is the first store of it's type in the area. It is a full service board game, table top, RPG, and card game store. The store is located off of Ralston Rd and Olde Wadsworth Blvd. They have a ton of different games with plenty of room for events in the main space of the store. During the Grand Opening they had 7 tables set up; 6 with different games and the 7th had 2 strategy games on it. All were welcome to play and learn games at their leisure, and will continue to be welcomed. This is easily accomplished with a number of store demo copies they keep on hand for visitors. The store also offers a discount on special orders they can get that do not have in store. If I remember right the amount was between 5% and 10%. This can give them an edge over the online market place. Want to know more about the people that started the store? Watch the video.
