Players in the Netherands?

By Investigator, in CoC General Discussion

I've just started this great game together with my girl last week.

Where enjoying this great game very much, and were wondering if there were any players int he Netherlands, if there are local tournaments being organised, that sort of thing ...

Don't be shy ! happy.gif

Sure. This sunday, we're playing in Zaandam (near Amsterdam) so if you feel like joining, friend me and mail me.

And as soon as our player group is big enough, we'll start organising official tournaments again. (just like we did in "black bordered"-times)

Hello fellow CoC players from Netherlands!

I am based in Brussels, and I am looking forward of meeting some veteran players of the game
Any chance to see a CoC LCG event near to the Belgium border (Maastricht, Eindhoven?) happy.gif

The biggest French speaking gaming group is in Liege (Luik) area. One or two veteran players told me they met some Dutch players back in the CCG time at Belgian tournaments in Hasselt. I have no news or connection with Flemish players, but I am monitoring the web.

I know that the best opportunity to meet CoC players is to attend the Stahleck Asylum event in Germany in Dec 2009. Unfortunately, I am not sure the dates will be ok for everyone in Belgium, that's whu I am looking for an agenda of Dutch events (dates / locations)

Thank you beforehand for your answers,

Hi Wendigo,

Yes, it's true since some of us (including me) had the pleasure to play in Hasselt a few times. This is logistically challenging, though. Since we play in the Noord-Holland/Amsterdam area, it's hard to set up something in the south, venue wise.

We're planning to attend Stahleck though.

If there is enough interest it's even possible to set up a tourney in Amsterdam. So, I don't know how far your playgroup is willing to travel into the Lands Below The Ocean!? ;)

Hi All, thanks for your replies !

Good to hear there are players here in the Neths / Belgian area.

I'd love to go to a tournament at some point (though im lacking in CoC experience and cards, but given some time ...),
so count me in when checking if the crictical mass for a Amsterdambased tourney is achievable !

Not sure if i will be able to attend Stahleck Asylum, though it sounds very interesting. We'll see. :-)

I am also from the blackborded era. I regained interest again with the new upcoming LCG format where the packs will come with three copies for every card.

I see there is still some active play (lcg) going on in Zaandam. Maybe I can come visit for some ocasional play. Problem is that I only have one core set and only three packs. Playing against my girlfriend is fun by just picking two factions each but building a good deck with this many cards is nearly impossible. Do you allow to use the blackbordered cards which were reprinted in the core set?

And how does tournament play goes? Can you use core set, deluxe expansions (secrets of Arkham) and all packs or just the packs from the most recent subcollection (dreamlands)?

I see no problem in using blackbordered versions of cards reprinted in an LCG format.

Playing mixed borders is also always an option, format wise. Tournament play is much like that - There are formats, and there can always be agreements on the format played in a tourney.

In general, the LCG format doesn't use rotation, so you can use all white bordered cards - it's not 'last block only' so...

And you're more than welcome to play! :D
