 9:00 AM - Spellbook Registration
Event will start at 10:00am
Fee: $5
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I will be finalizing all the event rules and posting them  sometime today.



For the Mage Wars Bashcon 2014 tournament the following rules are in place.

This tournament is open to all Mage Wars players. A 120-point spellbook is required*. Spells (cards) from the following expansions are permitted:

Mage Wars Core Set, Forcemaster vs Warlord, Conquest of Kumanjaro, and Druid vs Necromancer.

The tournament will be swiss format with the number of rounds based upon attendance. All entrants will receive a promo card.
Prizes will be awarded to the top - 4 players.

*You must bring your own spellbook. Spellbooks will not be provided.
 
Match time limit will be 90 minutes.



For the Swiss rounds

End of time procedure is as follows. If the time limit has run out while a match is still in progress, that match will finish its current round. If no winner has been decided after that round. You will check the life total remaining on each mage and the player with the highest is the winner. If neither player has a higher total then repeat this process.

If I were a betting man, I'd bet on either the Earth Wizard or Warlock.

Although tis hard to have an educated guess without knowing spellbook specifics.

How about book covers? Can you talk about that?

Any sightings of the expansion spellbook covers at Bashcon?

Round one = two priest wins! Heck yeah! Smite those heathens! Their opponents were even the earth wizard and Warlock. Way to beat the crowd favorites!

Round two = priest vs priest...well we are guaranteed another priest win but also a priestly defeat. Still, I am putting my money on a priest victory this tournament. Not because they have the most favorable odds, just because they be my favorite competitor.

Of course my predictions are incorrect. What a surprise :P

What happened to Devin? Did he get penalized b/c of the incorrect play with his mana crystals?

He forgot he had another event.
Just a warning but since it is passive judging I had to wait till it was brought  up after being noticed.
