What is the Schedule?!

By Stovrose38, in Star Wars: Armada Organized Play

With quarter 3 store tournaments starting to pop up... wasn't the US nationals at GenCon? Aren't worlds next month? When were Regionals?

I know things got weird last year when the star wars games were separated from the others'... but I'm still confused with what the schedule for this 2017 season is, can someone direct me to where I can find it, the Organized Play page doesn't have event information or even a tentative schedule to understand how it's supposed to go down.

Regionals haven't happened yet. The schedule hasn't been announced yet but should be soon.

Expect Regionals to run from late October through January or so, with Worlds around May The Fourth, as it was last year. The schedule got off a couple years ago in order to shift to this schedule, and this is supposed to be the schedule moving forward.

Regionals announcements are starting to slowly trickle out, but I agree there should be an OP announcement soon.

And of course, this format will carry on from this point on.

Store Championships May through August

Regional Championships November through February

National Championships Whenever the **** they want

Continental Championships at GenCon (for NA) and at the big UK Expo (For Europe)

World Championships in May

Repeatsies.

Why are there two world championships, with one being taller than the other?

Indeed, why are some only half the height of the rows, and others the entire height? What is the significance?

1) because the Date involved - it was showing the changeover

2) Because this graphic was originally showing this as well:

Which leads us to, of course:

No worries.

Just make sure ot ignore the 1st set of "Nov Dec" there... Treat is from Jan-Dec onwards, and it applies to 2017 and beyond .
