By timewalker03, in X-Wing Organized Play

This is the initial announcement for a Tournament with a prize pool most players will want.

When: September 7

Where: Game Shoppe Bellevue Nebraska

Cost: $10

Prizes: all 4 Wave 3 Ships (1st and 2nd place winners will get their pick of ships. 1 ship will be given away in a random drawing. 4th ship will go to the player who shows the best sportsmanship in the tournament.) Other prizes will be determined by attendance

If you plan to come RSVP to xwingtoman at aol dot com.

More information coming. Any questions feel free to email me with them.

Looking forward to this one!

This tournament is open to everyone, but will be capped at 24 people. The slots will be filled with the first 24 to rsvp.

Are wave 3 ships and upgrades allowed in this tourney, or is it wave 1-2 only?

Doug, It will for now be wave 1 and 2. Also the date will be the September 21st due to my schedule conflict.

A question for you. Do you think wave 3 ships will create an imbalance for those who didn't have an opportunity to get them at Gencon and currently do not have them?

Well, a wave 1 only squad just won nationals. I think this game is pretty well balanced as it is. The thing is you have to be good flying what you bring. So balance-wise I think we're okay running wave 3 stuff. But I also don't want to harbor any bad feelings, either. So I'm okay running with just wave 1 and 2. Either way, I just figured id ask. Worse you could say is no. :)

I guess it also depends on when wave 3 releases to everyone. They are currently on a boat, and your tourney is almost 4 weeks out, so they may arrive by then. That may change things.

Expected release of wave 3 is Sept 13th. I'd say wave 3 should be legal for this tourney, as everyone will be anxious to play with their new toys.

Just rename it as a wave 3 release tourney.
