Tournament Shout-Out: Fall 2015

With the last days of 8th edition before us, and the rise of other gaming systems vying to take the crown as the major grand tournament fantasy-based game, I wanted to give a quick shout-out to several upcoming tournaments.

Infernal Zoo - October 3-4, 2015 - Davis, CA
The Infernal Zoo is going to be held the 3rd and 4th of October in Davis, California. The tournament is a yearly monster-themed fantasy event run by Alex Harrison. This year, it looks like he is running more of a weekend gaming convention rather than a standard five-round tournament. His website has recently been updated with all of the tournament information, but these are the events that he will be running if you are interested:

Saturday -
  • Warhammer 8th Edition 3-round tournament with End Times rules
  • Age of Sigmar 5-round tournament
Sunday - 
  • Age of Sigmar Championship (best 2 out of 3)
  • Kings of War showcase
  • Frost Grave showcase
  • Painting and Modelling awards
Registration for both days is $30, while a single day (like just the 8th edition tournament) is only $20. Registration increases $10 if you register after September 10, 2015. If you have any questions or wish to participate, you can e-mail Alex directly at BizzaroHammer1@yahoo.com.

Northstar GT - October 17-18, 2015 - Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN
The Northstar GT is going to be held the 17th and 18th of October at the Fantasy Flight Games Center in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota. This is one of the largest tournaments in the Mid-west and will be the final 8th edition tournament for Northstar. This year, the tournament is straight 8th edition with all current errata and FAQs in effect (this includes 50% lords and heroes and the Lore of Undeath), but no End Times books, units, or army lists. It will be 5-rounds and all the rules are on the website. 

If you are interested in registering (as there are still spots available), you can register by e-mailing thenorthstargt@gmail.com. Registration for the tournament is $75 and payment information is also available on the website. If you are interested, I would suggest signing up quickly as this tournament has consistently sold out.
