In the first few days of 2020, we eagerly announced new rewards for SlugCrew, our team of enthusiasts running SlugFest gaming sessions at game stores and conventions. Melvyn, the minotaur mage was the reward for folks who ran lots of games. We were all looking forward to a great year of gaming. Then some stuff happened… But now, in-person gaming is back, and so it’s finally time to put our minotaur friend out to pasture. Don’t worry—he’ll be back very soon in an upcoming retail release. In the meantime, we’re excited to finally announce new SlugCrew rewards! We start off with the Minor Rewards. These three Red Dragon Inn promo cards are available for any SlugCrew member who earns 30 SlugCrew Points (about 6 hours of demos). But if you get 150 SlugCrew Points (about 30 hours of demos), you can earn the Major Reward – a sneak preview version of a future Red Dragon Inn character!
