When: Sat, June 8th, 11:00am – 7:00pm.  We will be going four rounds and using Deathclock timing and Steamroller 2013 scenarios.

Game Size: Games will be played with 50 point and must include two, character restricted lists.  This is a divide-and-conquer format, so each list must be played twice during the four round event.

Entry Fee: $20.00 ($16 for Stronghold Members) per person, which includes two pop and pizza lunch.  (If you’re not currently a Stronghold Member, consider checking out our campaign)

Prizes: Here’s where things get exciting.  The Syndicate of Gaming have all been regular attendees of BKG events since before there was a Syndicate.  These guys have all generously donated first prize for the event:

The General,  a perk offered as part of our Indiegogo campaign, will be awarded to the first place overall winner.  This prize includes a year’s membership to the Stronghold Game Lounge, your name on the founders wall (etched for all to see in this amazing new space), a limited edition T-Shirt, a full 12-pack set of custom BKG dice, and…

One free wargaming tournament each month at BKG for a whole year!

That’s right, first prize at this event is a year’s worth of admission to Black Knight Games events, a prize pack worth $225, generously donated by those guys at the Syndicate of Gaming.  If that’s not a reason to make the trip and play some Warmachine, what possibly could be?

Well, just in case you don’t think you can clinch first prize, BKG is still supporting the event with store credit prizes for 2nd place, 3rd place, best painted, and best sportsman.  Amazing prize support for a cool warmachine tournament?  Time to set up the carpool.

“But aren’t the Syndicate members such great gamers that they’ll just come and win first prize themselves?” you may ask.  Not this time!  While those guys are coming out to throw some dice and have a ton of fun, if any of them happen to qualify for The General he’ll pass that prize along to the next guy.  Nice gesture from some cool dudes, right?

Playing like you’ve got a pair is fun, but playing in a pair is even more fun.  Ever wanted to play in a doubles event, but your best friend who you play with is terrible?  Ever wanted a cool day of gaming, but you just win too often for that?  Never fear, Blind Doubles is here at Black Knight Games!

There’s no requirement to bring a Blind Caster or Gorman Di Wulfe (although bonus points if you do!).  The blind aspect of this team event is the pairing.  By all means bring a friend, but you won’t know who your partner is until after registration.  That’s right, you could end up playing with the best player you’ve ever met—or the worst!

No matter what happens, these kind of events are a ton of fun and worth making the trip out.  Bring a few friends.  Here are the details:

When: Sat, May 4th, 11:00am – 7:00pm.  We usually finish a little early, but we will be going four rounds and using Deathclock timing.

Game Size: Games will be played with 35 point armies each using only one list.  After registration, each player will be given a RANDOM partner.  This will be your partner for the day.  (Do your best to get along.)

Entry Fee: $20.00 ($16 for Stronghold Members) per person, which includes two pop and pizza lunch.  (If you’re not currently a stronghold member, consider checking out our campaign)

Prizes: We will have coins available for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place teams along with a share of the prize pool based on attendance.  We will also be giving out Privateer Press dice for the single best painted army (one team member) and a set of dice for each member of the team voted best sportsmen.
