Welcome Olga & Clownfeet!


I just sent a quick private message to the following forum members:
  • Adrornalin
  • What If?
  • daliles
They are on the Waiting List so I thought I would redirect them here to make sure they don't miss out.  ;)
   
And thanks to that, I´m so in!
Maybe I shouldn´t buy kathars, what would I do next?

Hi Decar. Just wondering if you knew when registrations were likely to close? The reason I ask is that I'm meeting a few ex-colleagues on 31/5 at a board game café so I can (finally) introduce them to Carc. I've mentioned this tournament briefly to them and that I really enjoyed it last year. However, none of them really play board games so understandably they don't want to commit to this until they know whether they actually like playing it! Do you think they will have chance to sign up in a fortnights time, or do you envisage that it'll be too late should there be sufficient interest in the meantime? Cheers.

Welcome aboard Adrornalin!

Firstly a note for any newcomers to the forum.  It's worth looking at your notification options so you receive emails for all updates on a thread.  Otherwise you many only receive one notification until you next visit the forum and may miss important announcements.

You can change your settings here:


Last year's Welcome Tournament was broken into 3 Rounds of 3 groups:

Round 1 - 2 players - Basic Game
Round 2 - 2 players - Basic Game, River 2, GQ11, Cult,Siege
Round 3 - 3 players - The Phantom, Traders & Builders, The Tower, Corn Circles II

It's likely Rounds 2 and 3 will be different and the groupings will be based on number of players & locations.

Hope that helps answer your questions.  If you have a preference for expansions - you're welcome to suggest some ;)

I don't know about siege for a beginners tournament, but when I play with others who are new, I usually use:

River
Inns/Cathedrals
Traders builders
Maybe crop circles
I don´t trust you with putting back my tiles. You might put them back upside down...

Welcome to the forum Skane - glad to see new members taking part!

I'm going to keep registration open for another few days - I suspect we'll stop at 12 or 15players!
