ANU CSSA
Epic Games Night 4

What is Epic Games Night?
Epic Games night is a night of casual and competitive gaming hosted by the Computer Science Students' Association of the ANU in Canberra once a semester. This semester we plan to have all those and more and are including a BYOC Starcraft II tournament and DotA2 and LoL tournaments (played online, cast live) with the help of the ANU PC Gaming Society. Other board and video games that will be at EGN will be listed on the website shortly. There will also be a room for casual BYOC players.
There will be pizza available @ $5 for a whole pizza.

Epic Games Night will be held in the CSIT building on the ANU campus.
CSIT is Building 108 on the map
