Go Priestess!

Is Priestess player the same from last year?

That is a lot of Necromancers :) I am pretty curious about their books. Pure zombie, Pure skeleton, mix or something completly different :)

12 players. My bad on Shark he's Adramelech Warlock. He's 2- 0 right now. All Necromancers are skeleton. Biblofilter is one and undefeated fighting the Charlotte entry Mr Rose and his Druid.

Wow, 12 really is a pity, especially compared to the tremendous increase of 16 to 28 players in the German Nationals!

Right, its 5 less players than last year. People must have dropped out since I was pretty sure there were 17+ last time I checked.

Only twelve people in the tournament? What happened to "biggest turnout ever we're going to run out of spots" Gen Con 2016?

Still, this is a big let down. Also, as far as I know there is only one other Mage Wars Arena player in Columbus Ohio (or at least there's only one other who has a Facebook account) and that is after Origins has come and gone four times. And now this. This is really making me worry about how things are going for this game.

Yes; it's not nice to see such a game be left alone by so many. Perhaps it was the delay of the multiple announced expansions for Arena, or maybe it's because Mage Wars is a game that has a limited amount of replayability, just like any other game.

Mind you, there are people like me who are younger, who cannot drive and also live in areas where there are no events taking place {take Montreal as my personal example}; and just because a person buys the base Arena game box, doesn't mean he/she is on the forums or that he/she knows about the expansions.

I'll respond later when I'm not busy having a blast at Gen Con. For now cool it with the skies falling stuff. I know why the turn out was what it was. It's got nothing to do with doom and gloom. Also perhaps not be fast to nay say before facts are known?
