It's all pretty straight forward really, you come on down to deepest, darkest Hampshire, you buy a W:I starter, you build your deck and you kick ass!! I can't make it any easier than that really.

This will a 50 minute time limit, Swiss tournament with no top cut. All decks must be constructed using the standard rules of the game.

Any questions please let me know.

What does "no Top Cut" refer to? Just wondering.

In some tournaments, mainly large ones, after the rounds of swiss are done they will cut the top 8 or whatever and play three rounds of knock out swiss to find the actual winner. I'm not a huge fan of this personally, prefer straight swiss.

Is the base set included in the entry or not?

jogo said:

Yeah, basically you buy the starter and create your deck from that.

Consider me there big guy.

You had to pick that weekend didn't you. I'm going to be at Game.

Dang.

I can't believe the Brits are getting this game before I do. I cry foul play, sir! Fly over and we'll have a match and settle it like real men...holding a Core set or two as prize.

lol dude, we never get anything first, we are just that little island off the coast of Europe..........

As for prizes, man FFG have been good to me, not saying anything at the minute, but I'm uber impressed, pictures may follow.......

Double diggity dang!

Wish I was also living in that little island off the coast of Europe right about 3 days from now. Just for one day at least.

Hi,

I live in Crawley, which is one hour from Aldershot (if my GPS is correct). I'm not sure whether I'll be able to attend, as I might be working

Will you have enough stock?

Will there be more contests in the future?

echtalion said:

In some ways I hope I don't have enough stock, but I have pre-ordered thirty copies so I hope that is enough.

And yes I will be running a monthly shindig, probably last Saturday of every month.

Based on other events you have run, how long do you reckong this will be? Starting at 11, and finishing at....? I'm asking because I may be able to sneak out of work early.

lol, good work fella

It depends how many we get really, probably 4 ish maybe, what time would you need to escape?

Tallgeese said:

I may go early, if a colleague covers for me at work. One question, can you reserve a copy for me? I will confirm attendance tomorrow. And one last thing, I'll enter the postcode in my GPS, but it has failed before. Can you provide a contact number for the shop? In case I get lost.

Cheers.

I have 24 copies put aside just for the tournament, so no worries on you missing out there.............

The contact number for the shop is 01252 311443, will be cool to see everyone down here, seriously looking forward to it.

So what are the prizes then big man.... come on time to wet our appetite's
