Yeah they are going to run it.  I think Derek plans to run a table.  I haven't done my homework on it yet so I can't tell you much about it.

I'll get back to you, Dave.

In theory it's supposed to start next week, use essentials characters in Nentir Vale and prominently feature the new fortune cards as an in game aid and modified through the @Wizards_DnD twitter account.

I will be running this coming season in Abington. For character creation, use the Essentials books and any Dragon articles that are specifically tied to the Essentials line. All characters should be created at 1st level.

This season is titled "March of the Phantom Brigade" and will also allow the use of the new D&D Fortune Cards that are being released shortly.

I'd love to have another volunteer DM for a second table. Please let me know if anyone is interested in DMing!

You do not have to buy the Fortune Cards but it is recommended. Players who do buy the packs are certainly going to have a distinct advantage over those who do not.

Ideally, each player will purchase two packs of Fortune Cards for use during each session of play. It's a nice way to support the store while still getting something of equal value for your money.

The first session is next Wednesday, February 9th at 7 PM.
