THEY ARE BACK!


 THIS IS NOT A DRILL! THEY ARE BACK!

Ladies, gentlemen, guys, gals and my non-binary pals. The benevolent and almighty owners of EPIC Ipswich have returned. 

For those who hadn't visited the premises since last Wednesday, Trevor the Founding Father and Trish the Queen of Crafts, left EPIC Ipswich in the very reliable and most capable hands of their staff whilst they were out plotting... erm... I mean planning changes to the business in a conference down in Sydney. After the store nearly burnt down from a fryer being left on over the weekend and its panicked cover-up. The Benevolent and most gracious power couple of the store touched down Monday morning to say and I quote "Yup. That's a mighty fine store we have. Were the garbage bins emptied? Did someone eat my truffle? Did someone forget to feed the work experience people we have locked away in our office?".

After finding all the staff members answers acceptable, they finally let me out of the cardboard box they'd assumed I'd been working in for the past week. They played back the camera footage and found no visible evidence of the hammock I had set up there earlier in the week.

Then, as though they had never left, business returned to usual.

Although they mentioned some strange foreign words to me, an unknowable task they wanted me to undertake, involving google analytics, a performing Pepsi max and that noise clocks make.... ding dong? NO! Tik Tok, that's the one! I cannot understand that which the alien and unfathomable minds of the owners have conjured. My only prayer is that some elder god that is not affiliated with them in any way shape or their everchanging tentacled form will prevent them from banishing me back to my box in the corner which I now call home.

On the off chance that the benevolent owners are by chance reading this. I need to disclaim that this is an article - on a blog - and is a pure and deliberate work of fiction - it's funny - our readers will love it.

Do not send me back to my box

please

pretty please,

Lachy

The website got a facelift

 It has been busy busy busy behind the scenes here at EPIC Ipswich over the past fortnight. Prep work for the Benevolent Owners shared vacation, juggling the change in the store's layout, new til systems, new television menus, and becoming increasingly popular. This isn't even factoring in the change in menu, or the upcoming events planned. We have been busy and you can trust I'll give you, loyal readers, a store update once we get time. In the meantime, our website has been updated by yours truly. When I first did the original website home page I had the essential elements, with a lot of my working hours, I've been making the website more streamlined and more friendly to our bandwidth. Please note, that the game pages are still to be updated to provide you more information about what we do here. In the mean time, anticipate big things on the horizon. I saw some streaming gear in the offices.... I suspect it will have something to do with videos on the social media end....

What is Adventurers League?

  Adventurers League is a standardised and regulated form of Dungeons & Dragons . It uses the rules as written in the official D&D books, so you don't need to worry about any homebrew rules. Character creation is limited to the Players Handbook and one other source, which means you don't have to worry about anyone making characters that are too game-breaking, as well as all the possible worlds you can end up in are all published D&D settings  To put it simply, Adventurers League takes all of the guesswork out of D&D. The stories are already written, the rules are plainly outlined, and everything is structured. So it is a great place to learn as a player and even as a Game Master  Each session is a short self-contained 2-4 hour story, though some will make callbacks to other stories you won't miss much if you can only come in once a fortnight instead of every week, unlike other games where it always feels like when you miss one session you end up missing ...
