Tag: KuL-Crew EN Page 2 of 5

The first month in our new premises is already over and although we have allowed ourselves a little rest after the remodelling, a lot has already happened:

• From now on, club members can reserve the lounge free of charge for meetings, get-togethers, board games, etc. Please note that you only reserve the table – the room will continue to be used by the other groups.
• Instead of CoffeeB, we now have a fully automatic coffee machine and soon coffee directly from the roastery in the neighbourhood – so we hope you enjoy it! There have also been changes to the beer, and Wirt Beer is now also available directly from the neighbourhood.
• There is storage space for regular groups in the small room next to the Fantasy Tavern! So if you would like to store game material in the room, please contact us.
• If you would like to offer a free game in the rooms, you can now fill in the new form at KuL-Quests: kul-verein.ch/en/kul-quests-2
• And of course lots of little things: The new flyers are here, window films have been installed in both rooms, the chairs in the fantasy room have been replaced and there are now more lights, the laptops are at your disposal and much more!

• System of the Month März: W10+, German, 22.3.
  We are in the Regency era in our good old world, in England, but not quite as we know it from the history books. On a balmy late autumn day, the Marchioness of Ripon, Phyllis Barrington, has invited everyone of distinction in the region to an enjoyable evening of music.
  Already booked!

• System of the Month April: Wanderhome, English/German, 2., 21. 30.4.
  Completely without dice or complicated values, we immerse ourselves in a fantastic world full of animal creatures, mystical places, minor and major deities. Wanderhome promises a poetic, but often also very funny journey through the world of Haeth, which we invent, revise, discard and recreate during the game.
  Registration via Discord
  
• KuL-Social, 3.4.
  In April, we meet again to chat, play games and admire the space together.

The next Höck will take place on
Thursday, 1 May at 6 pm
Participation possible on site or via Discord.

Last week, 15 KuLists met in the new lounge at Güterstrasse 48 (or online in the Discord) to discuss and vote on the budget, board and planning for 2025. The most important points in brief:

• The majority of the new Board consists of existing Board members: Alain, Cenk, Mario, Patricia and Tim. Elia is a new member – welcome!
  Merci to the former ones: Manuel and Sybille!
  
• Membership fees amount to CHF 60 again this year – invoices have already been sent out (haven’t received any? Please get in touch 🙂 )
  
• Due to the expenses for the remodelling of the new premises, we have to suspend the previous discounts for multiple bookings. In other words, the prices for a room booking are again fixed at Chf 40.- (for KuLists) or Chf 60.- for non-members.
  
• A new game event vessel will be created, the room hire of which will be sponsored by KuL as long as the events are open to the public. This is intended as a follow-up project to Arcanor and also includes, for example, our Pathfinder Society or System of the Month games. More information will follow.

Thank you so much to everyone who took part and to everyone who supports KuL in other ways! You are awesome!

Some impressions of the new rooms:

We’ll be moving soon! The last two weeks have been spent building, painting, crafting and decorating the premises at Güterstrasse 48. Slowly but surely the whole thing is taking shape and color and the idea of the environment in which we will soon be able to play our games is becoming more and more vivid. I’m really looking forward to it! Thank you to everyone who has invested dozens of hours over the last few days – you are mega KUL!

And of course we continue with:

Events!

• Goodbye Laupenstrasse, 23.1.
  It will soon be over, the time when our association had its home in Laupenstrasse. And even though we have every reason to look forward to the new location and all the great stories we will experience in Güterstrasse, we want to raise our glasses to Laupenstrasse once again!
  
• Pathfinder Society, in German, 12.2. & 19.2.
  The Pathfinders find themselves invited to a charity dinner to benefit the Knights of Lastwall fighting in far-off lands against the lich king, Tar-Baphon. In the middle of dinner, evidence of a strange ritual arises, and the Pathfinders must investigate before dinner becomes a murder mystery!
  Registration via Meetup.
  
• System of the Month Februar: Vaesen, in English, 8.2. & 22.2.
  In dark forests, beyond the mountains, by black lakes in hidden groves. At your doorstep. In the shadows, something stirs. Strange beings. Twisted creatures, lurking at the edge of vision. Watching. Waiting. Unseen by most, but not by you. You see them for what they really are. Vaesen.
  Registration via form in the post.

IMPORTANT!
Our Annual General Meeting with board elections will take place next week:
Thursday, January 16 at 6 p.m.
Place: New room at Güterstrasse 48, 3008 Bern
Online attendace will be possible

As you may have heard, we have to leave our premises on Laupenstrasse at the end of January. But GOOD NEWS EVERYONE! We’ve already found new ones! And yesterday’s Höck decided that we will sign the rental contract. Here are some facts:

• 2 playable rooms, probably expandable to 3 rooms
• On Güterstrasse 48, 3008 Bern – reachable in 10min from Welle by bus
• Inexpensive
• Plenty of storage space with a reduit and back room
• You can check out the layout here (the black wall doesn’t exist yet)

I’m really excited to see how the new rooms will turn out. But one thing is for sure: they will be KUL!

Despite of everything, we continue with:

Events!

• Pathfinder Society, in German, 13.11.
  The Pathfinder Society meets again in November and December in KuL’s vaults. Go on a journey of discovery with Alain!
  Registration via Meetup as soon as possible.
  
• System of the Month November: Draw Steel!, in englisch, 21.11.
  Time to DRAW STEEL! Under the keywords Tactial, Heroic, Cinematic and Fantasy, MCDM promise to reduce the drudgery of traditional RPGs and offer fast, exciting battles with tactical depth. And we will check if they keep their promise!
• Unfortunately already full, sorry 🙂
  
• System of the Month December: Adventures in Ankh-Morpork, in german 10.12. (already filled) & 19.12. (slots available)
  The rules are very simple and focus heavily on role-playing. There is little fighting (and only with normal skill tests – there is no weapon damage or similar) and the focus is entirely on immersing yourself in the bizarre world of Terry Pratchett – but you don’t have to know it to have fun!
