KeyForge - Reversal Tournament

WHEN: Saturday May 11, 2019
WHERE: Prairie Game eXpo
START TIME: 1:00 PM
DURATION: 40 minutes per round; number of rounds depends on the number of players
MINIMUM PLAYERS: We need a minimum of 4 players

Tournament Format

With the Reversal format, each player brings a deck to the tournament which they believe is challenging to win with. Each round of the tournament, opponents temporarily swap decks for that match and try to win the round with the deck their opponent brought.

The philosophy behind the Reversal format is that all decks are useful in some way. This variant provides a fun opportunity for a player to dust off their more challenging decks and give them some use in tournament play.

You can register by responding to this post. Registration in advance is not required but is encouraged.

Hayden M and Khoa L will run the tournament.

PRIZES:
The tournament winner receives 1 KeyForge deck.

GAME: Star Wars Destiny
TEACHER: Tyson C
START TIME: 10:00am
END TIME: 12:00pm
DURATION: approx. 30 minutes per game
PLAYERS: 2 players per match
DETAILS: Star Wars: Destiny is a collectible dice and card game of battles between iconic heroes and villains that encompasses characters, locations, and themes from the entire Star Wars saga. In Star Wars: Destiny, two players engage in a fast-paced duel, each striving to eliminate the other's characters first. The game's innovative mechanisms combine dice-driven combat with faction-driven hand management. Straightforward rules make the game easy to learn, but also enable deep strategic thinking and clever deck-building. Players can create decks that include characters from every faction and any era, as long as heroes and villains are on opposite sides of the fight.

Tyson C and other members of a Star Wars Destiny group that meets at the U of R are coming to Prairie Game Expo to demo the game to interested folks but also engage in duels.

GAME: Saskatchewan Starfinder Society - Starfinder
TEACHER: Mel
START TIME: 9:30am
END TIME: ---
DURATION: ---
PLAYERS: 4 players max.
DETAILS: Mel from the Saskatchewan Starfinder Society will be running a two-part session of Starfinder. This special scenario is for no more than 4 players so pre-registration is required. If you are interested in this session you can register by responding to this post. Please not if you sign-up for this you are signing up for BOTH parts.

PART 1: 001 Incident at Absalom Station
When a brutal gang war breaks out on a docking bay in Absalom Station, the player characters are recruited by the Starfinder Society to investigate the unexpected bloodshed. Delving into the station's seedy Spike neighborhoods, the heroes confront the gangs and discover that both were paid to start the riot and that the true conflict is between two rival mining companies battling over a new arrival in orbit around the station: a mysteriously deserted ship and the strange asteroid it recovered from the Drift. To head off further violence, the heroes are asked to investigate the ship and discover what happened to its crew, as well as the nature of the asteroid it tows. But what the players find there will set in motion events that could threaten the entirety of the Pact Worlds and change the face of the galaxy forever...

PART 2: 002 Temple of the 12
Now members of the Starfinder Society and piloting their very own ship, the heroes head to the planet Castrovel, home of some of the best universities in the Pact Worlds, to research the clues they found on the mysterious asteroid called the Drift Rock. On Castrovel, the adventurers' findings point them toward an ancient elven temple-city called the Temple of the Twelve, lost deep within Castrovel's teeming wilderness. But in addition to the dangerous flora and fauna of the jungle, the heroes must contend with two other factions—the exiled Corpse Fleet of Eox and the Cult of the Devourer—who are also interested in the asteroid's secrets and have their own plans for the ancient alien technology behind it, if they can find it first!

END TIME: 2:00pm
DURATION: 4 hours (four 1-hour adventures)
PLAYERS: 6 players

What Helms the Hide is a series of four quests designed for levels 1-5. What the Helms Hide includes four 1-hour adventures that send the PCs across the Inner Sea region to uncover the secretive Decemvirate's past. Disagreements among the Pathfinders erupted into violence 300 years ago, spurring the Society's leaders to don helms that hid their identities and protected them from assassins. These ten members of the Decemvirate have remained anonymous to this day, but a recent discovery may uncover new information about this dangerous part of the Society's history. With a unique window into the past, it falls to the PCs to identify these original leaders and the secrets they buried before donning the helms—in the process helping to unveil a hidden threat to the Society.
