I am a long time gamer in the Albany and Oneonta Community. I am writing regarding one of my favorite stores. Although I support the store in many ways, I am not affiliated with the Bearded Dragon Games and Hobbies in Oneonta, NY
Last night, Bearded Dragon was burglarized, with the perpetrators breaking through another storage location and stealing a large and nearly complete magic collection dating back to fallen empires and newer, a large amount of specialty lands, and many, many other magic cards. In addition to magic cards, various game books, supplies and other things were stolen. If I get a list of what was stolen, I will pass it on.
Of special note, a large display sword order was received thursday of last week, and many hundreds dollars of specialty swords were stolen.
A friend of mine is running The city of Oneonta's First night. It is going to have a fantasy/renasance theme and called 10th night. It is a shakesperian reference that I am not familiar with.
This is of course new year's eve. I would like to go, although we may be committed to supporting Rensselaer this year, or have still other plans.
