More games.
Fuller tables.

Battle Beacon finds you a game at a store near you, books the table and keeps score. Stores run it all from NorthMark CRM, so every open table gets seen and every seat gets filled.

Sound familiar?

Getting a game shouldn't be this hard.

  • 01

    Players

    “Anyone up for a game Friday?”

    The message sinks in a 200-person group chat. Two replies turn up on Sunday. Friday's gone.

  • 02

    Players

    “Is there a table free?”

    Nobody picks up the phone, so you carry your army across town and every table's taken.

  • 03

    Players

    “Who won last time?”

    Results live on scraps of paper and in people's memories. Mostly in arguments.

  • 04

    Venues

    “Why is Tuesday so quiet?”

    There are players nearby who'd come in tonight. They just don't know you've got space.

  • 05

    Venues

    “Has everyone paid for Saturday?”

    Sign-ups in a spreadsheet, payments in three different apps, and a handful of no-shows on the day.

Battle Beacon fixes all five.

How it works

Game on in three taps.

No group chats, no phone calls, no score sheets. Just you, a table and someone to play.

How it connects

One store calendar. Every player nearby.

The moment a store puts a table or an event up in NorthMark CRM, players nearby see it in Battle Beacon, book it and play it. No double entry, no chasing payments, no waiting on a WhatsApp reply.
