Greeting fellow gamers,

We have some great news.  We were able to upgrade the location of Autumn Wars/War Chest. We are now, just 1500 ft to the north (across the Kennedy)  at the Marriot O'Hare.  This is a first class hotel with all the trappings.  (Almost too good for the likes of us).   Everything else on the schedule will remain the same (Times, Events, Flea Market, Tournaments, Door Prize)

Marriott Chicago O'Hare
8535 W Higgins Road, Chicago, Illinois 60631
773 693-4444

Here is a run down of the upgrades-

Gaming Area: Large carpeted, very well lit, 6.400 sqft ballroom.

Parking: Is complimentary and you be will provided QR code cards for the exit every time you come and leave, DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THE PARKING FEES

Grab and Go: Hours- Saturday 11am to 2pm. Burgers, Brats. Dogs, Chicken and beverages, (TBD)

Restaurant: The Brickton Restaurant in the lobby will be open from 6:30am to 11pm, daily.

No Carnitas El-Fredo: Instead we are guaranteeing the Grab and Go.

Water Stations: We will have 3 water stations within the ballroom.

Coffee: Is available at the coffee shop/bar in the Lobby.

Beverages/Snacks: Available near the Front Desk 24/7

HVAC: Yes we will not be too hot nor too cold. Those of you who remember 2025,  know of what I speak.


I apologize in advance for any confusion this may have caused.  But it is a win/win for all of us. 

See you at Autumn Wars,

Kevin
