Lots of them, but at this minute I am still awaiting news on exactly what they will be. There will be many promos and muchos other stuff. C'mon, have I ever let you guys down?
Ok, there has been much discussion about the whole block rotation thing straight after GenCon. As Steve H stated in the video that gives you a stiff neck, we in the UK are free to run what is a major event as we see fit. After much discussion between myself and the management of UFS UK Nats (Plc), it was decided that it would be unfair to make people start rebuilding decks now with such a limited card pool and no real knowledge of the Tekken 6 cards. It was also decided that this would be a cool way to say good bye to the block. I know this choice will not be popular with all, but that is how it is peeps.

Sunday: Sunday will be the day of the top cut, but do not fear for there will be side events to keep people happy and occupied. So far we are looking at doing:
Mini-Block Regional: All the fun of a regional, but only with Five Point Cards.
Ragnar's Hammer: Not 100% certain we know what is happening with this yet, but you can only use Ragnar.
T Shirt: Not 100% certain there will be one, if you are interested or think it is a good idea please let me know. The design is already sorted, it's Cammy on a Union Jack.
Ok, that's about it for now, no doubt I will have forgotten mant things and will be reminded of such over the next few days.
As usual, if you have any problems or questions please contact me.
