My main gaming mate of the last 2 years just moved across the country, so I'm in need of a regular person/group of people to play! I have 4-5000pts eldar, 2-3000pts SM, and a small force of Orks. I like a good large sized game, both competitively and friendly, but am definitely looking for some one interested in playing at the kill team-combat patrol level in some story/fluff based campaigns, eventually leading to large battles. I'm a very good sport, and won't tolerate those who aren't. I'm specifically in beaverton, but range anywhere in the portland area, and would be happy to join any good local gaming clubs. I have been playing 40k for about 15 years, have participated in several tournements, and have written some 60 pages of tactical content articles on 40konline, so consider myself an experienced player, so I am looking for some one compotent, though I am very patient and am fine teaching some one how to play (strategy wise, not so much rules).

The Imperium is the most callous, cruel, and harsh regime that humanity has ever known, but it is only this regime that stands between each Imperial citizen, and forces of such inexplicable hatred and evil that would do far worse than destroy them. The Imperium is the light in this galaxy, where by it's warriors must feed the pyre to keep the darkness from consuming us all, forever.

Any 40k gaming groups in the Salem area? I'm a bit south of portland, and making the after work drive can be rough at times.

You could try Borderlands Games in downtown Salem.

I recently played at Knightfall Games (my first 40k game in several years), and I was impressed. Very nice people, and excellent gaming tables.
I'm not native to the Portland area though. If there is anyone in the Klamath Falls area that has a group going, let me know.

I just moved to southern oregon, around medford and central point. I was forced to quit playing Warhammer due to a lack of stores or players. U guys r my last hope before I am forever limited to writing about the game that I once enjoyed.
PM me if u r a gamer in that area or if u know of any stores in the area. I do not yet have my license so it would be limited to a half hour drive or so.

Anyone planning on attending Orycon 2009?
I played in the Apoc game last year (the one Tim ran, not the Baneblade fest..) and had a blast.
I was wondering if he is still planning on doing Apoc-sized Space Hulk, or something else?
Well, I'll be there regardless.

Klamath Falls finally has a game store.
Astral Games of Medford has opened a sister store here in K-Town. Located at 737 Main St., they are open Tuesday through Sunday. They have a nice space, with 4 tables set up for play. Good folks behind the counter too (even if one of them plays Greenskins).

Wow, thats great news!
I was in Klamath falls just a few weeks ago visiting OIT and I was looking for a gaming store but didn't find one. Next year, I am transferring to OIT and it's good to know that there is a game store just a short bus ride away.

I've been loking for a place in the Portland / Vancouver area to go for games and maybe tournaments. I live in the eastern part of the state, but it's only about a 3 hour drive, which I'm totally willing to go to play with a good bunch of people. I used to travel regularly to Z Games in Vancouver to play and loved it but they have closed down
If anybody knows any good places in that area I would love to know what gaming they do and when. I usually have Friday Saturday and Sunday off and often available to travel
