Preview: Valentine's Duel - February 4, 2023

 


Is that the beating of Cupid's wings I hear...or the roar of a bounty hunter's jet pack?  They sound eerily similar sometimes.  Be it Cupid's arrow or Boba Fett's Kyber Dart, someone's getting a shot to the heart this week, for it is our annual Valentine's Duel!  True love is just around the corner.  Or a rathar is just around the corner, because we're playing the Eravana Cargo Hold board!


Did I mention there are TWO rathtars on the board?  Twice the fun and excitement!  This Saturday, February 4, 7PM in the North Village Fine Arts Studio it's going down.  And Duelers are asked/encouraged to bring a sweet treat to share!

MEET THE DUELERS:

Here it is...Rob's favorite "Meet the Duelers" each year!  It's his favorite because he posts a Star Wars-themed Valentine's Card for each Dueler.  To his knowledge he's never used the same one twice.  You're welcome.

PLUSH POE PICKS THE WINNER:

Well, no sooner than I discounted Plus Poe's ability to pick winners, he nearly pulled it off again, with Boba Fett finishing second and nearly making Poe correct.  Who you got this week, Poe?


Whoa!  Poe is picking Rey to win back to back Valentine's Duels!  Interesting...

Feel free to come out and watch the action at 7PM Saturday.  We'll have treats and chaos, but not necessarily in that order...
