Question about Worlds

By ryanjamal, in Imperial Assault Organized Play

How difficult is it to get tickets? I want to go for IA and for another game (honestly, I don't really care which), and I'm planning on going up with a group of three other guys. Will we all be able to get IA tickets? What about for X-Wing? Destiny?

My concern is that I'm not sure if I should hold off on getting a hotel until I can for sure purchase a ticket.

Also, I hope to meet a lot of you all there! It'll be great to match a face with a user name.

Info was just posted. Bad news, IA and Destiny are on the same day. Also seems like every event will cost $70. No discount unless we get more clarification.

Hotels you can usually cancel 24 hours in advance. Getting tickets are hard in terms of popularity. It's a mad rush when it opens up and will sell out. Additional tickets get released little by little. My guess will be Destiny > X Wing > Imperial Assault > others

Can you post where you found the price and that pricing would be per-event this year?

Thanks for the link! That's a bit unfortunate though

Yeah. I can't get there until Wednesday night, so I can't even do the fun IA tourney the day before.

I just checked and Destiny has a Day 1B on Friday, so it appears that I could do both, unless I make the top cut for IA.

I'm not familiar with the Day 1A and 1B thing. You don't have to attend on both days?

I have been on the FFG site, but don't see mention of the cost nor mention of early events. Where did you see that?
