You heard that right, a local game store Red Castle Games, had a car crash right through the front of their store. The car was involved in a police pursuit, with the driver intoxicated and high (now facing drug and alchol charges according to a local report). The crash was estimated to have occurred between 60-80mph when it hit the store front. Of course games, glass, and debris went flying, in some cases between 20-30'.<br>

The policies of Games Workshop are forever a hard topic in this hobby, and many names which I will not bring up, are used to describe it. When something new like this comes along, it is rather shocking, and even though this is still a rumor, its changes would be widely excepted and liked by our community as a whole. <br>

We all know we should be supporting your local game stores, so it was time post up on the best store for warhammer 40k in the Portland area. I have been to them all, and by far Knightfall Games supports its player base better than any store in the area. </div>

It is a rare thing to have a local store that you can walk into almost at any time and get a game in. Knightfall Games here in Portland is one of those places. </div>

2010 is almost done and I will be re-doing game store reviews coming up in the new year. The plan is to re-visit each one and see what they are doing in the 40k community. If I get the chance I will also visit a couple new store locations, and possibly even get out of the Portland Area for a few regional reviews. If you play a local store, or one in the Portland Area and want your store to be next on the review, drop me an email and we can see about getting it done. <br>
