European Championships 2018

By NebulonB, in Star Wars: Armada

there was one last year, a team event with quite nice prices.

but prices in general have not been announced. last year we had everything from cool foldable Euro boxes (place for damage cards, speed and command dials, obstacles etc), (the now infamous) Euro custom rulers, alt ard cards for participation, acrylic turn dials and whatnot.

With 9 tickets remaining I bottled and bought one.

good to hear!

Hopefully they can start getting some of those unused IA and Destiny tables turned over to Armada and fit a few more in!

I hope too.

2 of my friends don't have their tickets.

But it's very sad for imperial assault...

Maybe message the organisers? If enough people express an interest maybe they'll increase the field - pretty sure last year the total number of tickets was 128 but they must have reduced it this year since only around 55 were sold in 2017.

I just hope there is good coverage and/or a stream. Get the message out there as well as the Canadians do!

Last year the WiFi coverage was awful. I don't know how Simon got his stream up, though.

I'm keeping my eyes open.

I am sorry, you mean you hope the Canadians can one day measure up to our coverage.

We had simultaneous commentary on all top 4 matches last year.....

Is @Aresius still crying every night following the FAQ or does he have a new fleet?

Wow, already sold out. How many of you would like to visit, but without a ticket?

+1 for me.

Edit: the venue is large enough, there was plenty of extra tables last year. I dont see why they coulddnt add extra tickets. Lets just collect how many more we need, and let them know.

If you're on FB here's a link to the discussion page for the FFG Euros; someone's already asked about extra tickets (post on the 11th April by Jakub Charmo) and there are at least 4 other people wanting them so if you add to it maybe Alex will add more spaces. https://www.facebook.com/events/362722770841335/?active_tab=discussion

Coincidentally Alex (Watkins the FFG organiser) has literally just posted this comment about more tickets:

Hello players!

So far we have 1,270 tickets sold for the Europeans and Grand Kotei! Including Saturday X-wing and Armada being sold out. Those of you asking about any extra Armada tickets, I am looking into this now and will let you know when I have news.

I am working on getting you a date for a prize announcement, but in the meantime I plan on getting the side event information up in the next couple of days for you all as well a a rough floor plan for each of the days.

Thanks

New list, I've been away from the forum for a while becouse i was busy with warhammer 40k, but don't worry, my liberty is still here and shine.

There will be side-events:

*Star Wars Armada*

- Simple, casual and self timed. 4 man pods will fire when full and require players to play 2 rounds as directed on the form you are given.

- After 2 rounds are played, bring the result sheet up to the prize desk with the players to claim your prizes.

- These will fire Friday afternoon, Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning.
