GENCON 2011 – Saturday night gaming event. AEG is christening its new gaming area at Gencon with a giant gaming night on Saturday. The event will be for ticket holders only and everyone who has been to an AEG event knows we bury our players in Fun and Swag so no matter what AEG games you play there will be something at the show for you. The event will be big but limited and once the tickets start to go they will go fast so sign up here.

To find out if your store is a Stronghold Store of Level 1 or higher go to our Stronghold Store page.

If your store is NOT a level 1 or higher stronghold store they can request a kit at customerservice@alderac.com. Gencon tickets are part of the kit while supplies last.

If you do not have a store in your area these promotional items will go up for a nominal charge on the AEG web store on July 15. Please understand that in order to support game stores we cannot offer these items any earlier.

As a launch to the holiday season, remember that Friday November 26th marks the start of  the Free Booster Pack Day Promotion in all Stronghold Stores level 1+ around the world!

To celebrate this tradition in a grand fashion,  AEG has sent its level 1+ Stronghold Stores all over the world a very special package: free boosters for its customers!

We’d like to give  a big shout out to Dimas Miura, owner of Padis in Madrid, one of the pillars of the L5R community, not only in Spain, but in the world.

As explained in the 2010 Stronghold Store Program, Padis will get to hold the first ever “Create a Card” tournament in L5R’s history on January 15th 2011.

Keep an eye on the website for the formal announcement on this tournament!

in order to keep all forces of the Emerald Empire mobilized during these trying times, the Imperial Consort Iweko Setai has decreed that the major dojos of Rokugan will hold contests of skill until the end of the war against the invader.
Miya Heralds will act as liaison and will report the results to the Divine Empress.
