Christmas and New Year Operating Hours

Hey PI-Fans, Been a while. It's an all-hands-on deck situation right now, as I'm sure is the same across the gaming sphere and the staff have been working like mad to ensure everything remains on an even keel. There will be some minor operating hour changes during both the Christmas and New Year weeks as the Staff take well needed breaks to spend time with their family. Operating Hours during the festive seasonal days are as below. On behalf of the Games @ PI Team (which is currently embattled by the XMas Rush), Happy Holidays, Seasons Greeting and a Happy New Year. - Kenneth, Games @ PI Manager     CHRISTMAS EVE AND CHRISTMAS OPERATING HOURS Christmas Eve: Sunday 24/12/23:12.00 noon – 6.00 pm Christmas Day: Monday 25/12/23: 2.00 pm – 6.00 pm   NEW YEARS EVE OPERATING HOURS New Year's Eve: Sunday 31/12/23: 12.00 noon – 6.00 pm New Year's [...]

Random Roll Ups – Store Restocks 21/11

Hey PI-Fans, Nothing says random quite like a strange smattering of board games, card games, miniatures and dice. This, on the other hand does happen from time to time, since the restocks for the week include a pile of weirdness with Renegade Games' Aggretsuko Work/Rage Balance, Leder Games' Ahoy. You'll also be seeing more of Brass Lancashire, Camel Up and Cascadia, as these amazing titles have drifted in aboard the same boat. On the miniature front, few of BattleTech's mercenary units have quite the storied (and strange) reputation of Snord's Irregulars, a famed unit notorious for their tendency towards insubordination and their eccentric magpie-like obsession with "collecting" (or looting) valuables. The Snord's Irregulars Assault Lance leads another wave of BattleTech Merc boxes,  with no guarantee of resupply once they disappear. Then come the Dice. Loads and loads of dice as a long delayed shipment finally completes the journey, leaving us [...]

Store Restocks and the Law of Shipment Attraction

Hey PI-Fans, For those of you who are curious about how logistics for a game company works, the honest answer is it doesn't. No matter how one plans shipments and plot and spaces things out... you can't control the shipping pipeline and while the best planning does mitigate things to an extent, sometimes it all just arrives at once. This is one of those times. The New Arrival shelf is absolutely brimming with piles of new stuff, including the long-awaited return of a slab of Avalon Hill Classics. Meanwhile, the football manager board game Eleven bursts back onto the scene with expansions to keep even the most jaded of coaches happy. Those seeking a more solitary gaming experience can pore over the details with the return of all three MicroMacro: Crime City sets while legacy game fans can look into the massive undertaking that is Oath.     In Oath, [...]

Waterfall Park

Hey PI-Fans, An absolutely visually stunning negotiation and trading board game, Waterfall Park has made an absolute splash at Essen.

Fighters, Felines and Funfairs

Hey PI-Fans, We've furnished a fantastical feast of fancy fun. Now that I've gotten that out of my system, it's worth mentioning that one of our long delayed shipments has suddenly just popped out of thin air and made it's way to our shelves. Spread across the New Stuff shelf are three new titles and a pair of new expansions from some wildly varying from head-to-head wargames for those of the strategic persuasion to adorable furniture battles of feline domination. Card gamers can likewise, celebrate the arrival of new Pokemon, with a small restock of Pokemon Scarlet & Violet 151 Elite Trainer Boxes, Mini Tins and Zapdos Collection Boxes. If you're curious about  some of the new shine things to reach our shelf, just check out the list below.     Waterfall Park is a beautiful reimplementation of the classic board game Chinatown. In this negotiation and trading game, players [...]

Air Conditioning Servicing – Friday 6th October

Hey PI-Fans, Building Management has informed us that they will be conducting servicing of the Air Conditioning units inside our unit during working hours on the 6th of October 2023. We expect there to be disruptions to our regular operating standards on the day itself - Though our staff will be on hand, at the very least we do not expect to be able to provide our normal expected level of service on the day itself. In the off-chance you need something in-extremis, we'll do our best but no promises. We expect regular to return to regular operating parameters on Saturday, 7th of October 2023.

Restock Waves

Hey PI-Fans, Boy... It's been a while hasn't it.  Time waits for nobody and there's never enough of it really. In my ongoing attempts to keep the store full of cool stuff, it's time to update the website. It's a long overdue update, haha. Worth mentioning is that in addition to spread of board and card games, we've gotten in a useful spread of accessories from the Sultan with 100-card deck boxes, mini-snaps, magnetic-snaps and plastic sleeves  as well as inner 'perfect fit' sleeves for both Standard and Japanese trading card sizes, making this an excellent way to protect both Pokemon and Magic: The Gathering Commander decks. On top of that, here's some of the new stuff that's made it's way to the shelves.     The army of the evil Dragon Queen marches across the land, leaving destruction in its wake. An alliance of desperate defenders stands against the [...]
