As predicted by me before the tournament, half of the spell books were Wizard 

I ran a rush warlock spell book, was 1st after the second round but messed up the third round so finished 3rd overall. JC, my traveling companion for this event, finished 1st with a wizard book and another wizard finished 2nd.

Cheers for the games all!

I'll probably run another Mage Wars tournament in September at the GNOME all-dayer. The first one, done last year, can be seen HERE. I'll post more details later in the year, I hope to see a few more faces there this time around.

Just over a week to go now so if anyone else is interested in playing let me know asap. There is at least one prize for the winner, I am trying for a second for the runner up.

There will be lots of other games going on, more info can be found HERE.

*edit*

I can confirm there will be a couple of prizes for this, cheers to Scott at Arcane Wonders and Shaun at www.customdicebox.com

I thought I would test the waters and see if there was any interest in a mini Mage Wars knockout tournament in the North West of the UK. I am one of the people who help to organise the Bolton All-Dayer with the next event scheduled for the 21st September.

I know a few of the local Mage Wars players would be interested in this so I am throwing it out to the rest of you. If there is enough interest I was thinking of running the tournament alongside the all-dayer. This way anyone who's knocked out early can either play other Mage Wars players, for fun, or join in with the other boardgamers and play other games.

I'll see what the interest is like for this, over the next couple of weeks, and will decide if this is a go or not. If the interest is there I will try and work out a fun format, and finalize the details. If there is limited interest we'll probably just end up playing for fun on the day anyway.

If anyone in the local area is looking to play Mage Wars before then just send me a mail. My local game group in Bolton meets up every Thursday night, and the game group in Wigan meets up every Friday night.
