So, I've never played in a tournament before, but thinking of signing up for this year's at Gencon. How's it work? Do you need a team already in place or can you just show up solo? Do you use your missions character, or do you bring a shiny new 400pt char?? Is it a mod you work through and people who 'beat' the mod continue??
Any info/experiences welcomed! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Thanks!! |

Some tournament standards:
Two nights 6 People per team (You can build a team the night of so it's fine if you don't have all of your friends) Pre-built characters provided by the Tourney Scoring is done on teamwork, problem solving, completion of objectives, etc. This year, there will be some special ways to change your team score but those will be explained to you the night of the event. |
