PoppaBear I'd be willing to bet you could get off booth early on Friday. Just call it a hunch having worked with AW in the past.

Probably.  This is my 4th Origins volunteering For them.  Last year was crazy with the debut of Royals.

Thanks again to arcane duels for hosting tourny.  Had a great time playing against Coshade and Puddinhead.  And to the other players Harry and Arthur, very fun matches.  Got some good intense games in.  Looking forward to getting some games in with other builds.  I have played over 20 matches with the Straywood in the past 3 weeks.  Still got some tweaking to do with the book.  Thanks again.

Yea I drove 3 to STL 6.5 to Columbus.  And the same back.  19 hours in three days.  Well worth it tho.  Lots of fun.  A lot of interesting builds from what I saw.  I think the one that stood out most was double battleforge turn 1.  I have to say I have not personally tried it out but the players in STL have been running it a lot.

Double forge turn 1? Wow.
Not something I'd ever run, but cool nonetheless!

Also not sure if I'm supposed to drop this info or if was posted any where else but academy forcemaster was available at Origins....and we were able to pick up copies from arcane wonders.  Not sure if it is an official release but it was sweet nonetheless!

It's the pre-release. I'd imagine come about Monday our friends at Arcane Duels might have some more to say......

wow. what a great event. sorry for all the folks who missed it. while informal, the competition was fierce. twelve showed for a spur of the moment event. huge kudos to the st louis team who drove twelve hours round trip in the same day to attend.

thanks to arcance duels for pulling it together so quickly and to all the participants. and finally huge congrats to the winner. i will not divulge so the ad team can roll out the summary.

looking forward to gencon and seeing everyone once more.
