Clousseau Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 I would suggest just 3 rounds and longer round times if you are aiming this event at beginners. If you need any advice or help just ask. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I think a beginners tourney is an excellent idea, but 4 rounds is quite intense. Less rounds and more time per game sounds like a better recipe for beginners.

AndyTidball Posted January 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 Thank you all for the input so far. Please note the date of this event has changed from the 4th to the 5th. There have been some changes so please look through the posting. If you have pre booked and cannot make it on the Sunday give us a call and we will sort out a refund. The reason for the change is due to X-Wing Regionals and there is no reason to compete having people miss out on doing both. There will be a Veterans Tournament in April replacing the which was scheduled for the 5th of March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
