After the success of our first two Mage Wars meet-ups, I think it is time to try my hand at running a tournament. Here are the details (subject to change):
Where: The Games Keep – 929 South High Street, West Chester, PA 19382 (484) 905-5533
When: Saturday November 23rd (12pm sign-up; 12:30 slinging spells)
Entrance fee: $5 which will go toward prizes in the form of store credit
What to bring: Your 120 point spell book – NO UNRELEASED PROMO CARDS ALLOWED. Also, please bring your copy of the game as we will need boards, markers, dice, etc. to play.
Format: We will play a Swiss style format. Rounds will last 90 minutes.
Tiebreaker: We will use the most damage inflicted as our tiebreaker method for games that go to time. Players must record all the damage they inflict on the opposing mage. Whoever has inflicted the most damage when time is called will be the winner.
Promo cards from the Unholy Tides Organized Play Kit will be available for all participants!
I have run several tournaments in the past, but this will be my first attempt at running one for Mage Wars. Please feel free to leave any comments, concerns, suggestions or to ask any questions below. I really want this to be a great event so I am open to your ideas.
