The excellent Mike Anderberg has asked Lake Geneva Games to set up some dates for 40K in the next four months including the second Sunday in September and October and the Third Sundays in November and December, from 1 PM to 5 PM.  For this, the "secret" game room has been set aside allowing for three tables of 40K for two or four players per table.


These are FREE events and Mike will host them, setting up the matches on the given day from among those who show up with armies and are ready to play.  In some cases, matches might be set up in advance by Mike in the LGG40K Facebook group here.
