The president and self-styled 20th-Level Store Owner, Jerod Leupold, caught his first glimpse of gaming in his older brother’s closet: a battered copy of Dungeons & Dragons. Since that time, Leupold has founded several gaming clubs, managed the game section of the former Iguana’s Comic Book Café and play tests for a major game company.
Leupold graduated from the University of Iowa and has lived in Iowa City with his wife for the past 10 years. Their two cats, Pablo and Guirmo, can attest to their willingness to play games and keeping a timely feeding schedule. For more information, contact Jerod Leupold at Critical Hit Games at 338-GAME.
What's in a name?
A "Critical Hit" refers to the most effective attack a player can make in a game. For most games, it involves rolling a 20 on a 20-sided die in order to deal severe damage to an opponent. For more information, read Wikipedia's definition for Critical Hit.
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone who likes to have fun, board gamers, miniatures players, role players, card players, etc.
Thanks for all your hospitality during the A Game of Thrones Nationals tournament. Tony and I had a great time and Critical Hit Games is a great store run by great people! We'll definitely make the trip again in the future and hopefully bring some other RGC members with us!
