Look forward to seeing you there! If you have a playmat handy and are willing to lend it for the days event please bring it with you as I'm still in the process of acquiring enough mats.

I posted this in the Star Wars: X-Wing Ohio facebook group as well.

I didn't see this on your calendar of events. I am trying to go but I am from Kentucky and want to make double sure before I drive up there lol. Do I need squad lists? Any pre reregistration?

Thanks!

Here is the facebook event:

You will need to have a squad list for both 60, 90, 120, and 150 points. It must follow the escalation list building rules as out line by the FFG tournament. Basically everything that you had in the 60 point list must be in the 90... everything in 90 must be in 120...etc. 60 points you must have a min of two ships.

Other than that, there should be plenty of space available. ForceSensitive can provide more information as he is running the event.

King argyle is way ahead of me, Lol. The store has the event details and it's making its way up to the calendar. Sorry about that :)

We haven't gotten to the point in attendance where pre registration is necessary, but if you private message your name to me I'll reserve a spot happily for you considering your travel arrangements. If in the future the store gets enough calls and there's a demand, the store will get a preregister sheet that you can call in to sign up on. Check back to the boards here and face book announcements to see if that happens, I will make a big deal about it as I would love to have that kind of attendance. ;)

Since it's been a concern lately, any prize pay out that is won, if the store has not received the kits in time, I will mail prizes out to you come hell or high water. Though I doubt this will be necessary.

Glad your interested, hope you can make it! You will to my knowledge break a distance record for travel at our tournaments! :D
