Plaid Hat Events at GenCon 2013

[Rÿchean]

Howdy folks,
These are the events for this year, 2013 Gen Con:

BGM1341475 Summoner Wars – Pick Your Poison Thu @ 3:00 PM
Location: ICC :: Hall E : Yellow :: 1--4 Cost: $6

Players bring 2 different pre-built decks. Your opponent picks which deck you will play. Unit Cards cannot be duplicated between decks. Matches will be timed; up to 4 rounds w/1 game final. Players bring 2 different prebuilt Summoner decks using the custom deck building rules found in the rule book. Second Summoner decks are allowed. Cards cannot be duplicated across decks, this includes mercenary cards. You also need to bring your own dice and wound markers. Gaming boards will be provided. Matches will be timed to keep event on schedule. Please be 10 minutes early to event, if possible. This will be a swiss style tournament. Up to 4 rounds depending on the number of participants. Final will only be played if there is not 1 undefeated player after 4 rounds.

Also, question for Rychean: can decks in Pick Your Poison and 4x4 have a card in its Draw Pile that's the same as another deck has in its starting setup? The description says unit cards can't be duplicated between decks, but the usual rule (the one on the PHG site here) says Draw Piles can't share Units. Just clarifying.

Yeah, it should be that you can't duplicate units between draw piles.

Perfect. I will have to check this out.

[gamjuven]

Oh boy, it's that time of year. I still have to buy the regular Gencon tickets. Hopefully the events will still be around. Man I want to play them all but I also want to have time to check out other stuff at Gencon, lol. Debate debate.

[thenightsshadow]

Tickets have been purchased, though I have to say, I completely forgot to until today.

Still rhyming? It appears Torodin has changed you.

[thenightsshadow]

You should see Owllyn, who Torodin is based off. She was my major Roleplaying partner for a few years, and she only spoke in poems, just like I'm having Torodin do now. However, Owllyn is a Battle Bard, so...she fought too. I had plenty of time making poetry during then.

Either way, yeah, just a friendly bump reminding those going to Gencon to get your tickets.

[esper88]

Me and me lady are coming. My first Gencon, baby!

[thenightsshadow]

Same here!

[gamjuven]

Awesome, I look forward to meeting both of you. Please forgive me in advance for forgetting names, I am horrible with them.

Warning: don't let Brad stay in your room. It will lead to multiple butt-whippings in Harry Potter CCG
