League Announcements – Week of 7/20

Good morning X-wing Players!

Monday’s here at last and that means another night of X-wing madness at Mayhem Comics. As always, we’ll be there at 6pm to start the fun, so if your in town come on down!

Over the weekend, we hosted a store tournament with the Spring kit and had a great turnout, with 9 players making it to the event. As is standard with the Des Moines meta, we saw a wide variety of lists, ranging from Sean Esser’s solid rebel swarm, to Doug’s bizarre Yorr, Tetran Cowell, Tie Defender madness. The tournament ran for 3 rounds, with a cut to top 4, finishing up right around 7pm.

You can find some pictures from the event in the gallery on the new website. In an effort to drive interest in the game locally, we’d love it if you could take pictures of some of your games and send them to desmoinesareaxwing@gmail.com so we can post them to the website.

Otherwise, we look forward to seeing you there 🙂

Good luck and Fly Casual!
