X-wing Announcements – Week of 6/3

Good afternoon X-wing players!

After an absolutely gorgeous weekend, the weather is once again ruining our outdoor plans, which can mean only one thing – MOAR X-WING!!!

Come on down to Mayhem on Monday nights for your weekly dose of X-wing madness. We’ve got 2.0 games happening left and right and with Wave 4 ships releasing soon, you couldn’t ask for a better time to get your game on.

We’ll have players there as early as 4:30 so we hope to see you there 🙂

As always, good luck and fly casual!

X-wing Announcements – Week of 5/6

Good morning X-wing players!
We had great turnout last night, with 4 games being played at one time and an excellent mix of factions. I can’t speak for everyone, but I know I’m pumped to see more wackiness on the table (droids for days!).

Speaking of wackiness, we’re just a few days away from our first ever (and super excellent) Sean Esser Classic. You can check out more details at the event below:

Sean Esser Classic

This event is shaping up to be super fun with raffle items galore! Check out the event page to see some of the items that have been posted – we’ve got tokens, we’ve got dice, we’ve got games, we’ve got mice (editor’s note: confirm on presence of mice).

Seriously, it should be a blast and we hope to see you all there.

Entry fee is $25 with proceeds going towards the handsome gentleman below so stop on down and try out some crazy quickbuilds!

X-wing Announcements – Week of 12/3

Good afternoon X-wing players!

We had a fantastic tournament on Saturday, with 14 players making the trip to enjoy the cozy warmth of 2.0 gameplay. While our TO forgot to take event pictures, rest assured it was a blast with excellent list variety across the board. A big congratulations to Jeff Linacre for his victory and to all the other competitors.

We’ll look for a way to post lists more effectively next time, but we also had a great test run for the Best Coast Pairings tournament app and will likely be using it moving forward. We recommend setting up an account on your phone as it is also the official app for the System Open Series 🙂

Player lists from the event can be found below. We’ll keeping adding as we get more.

Otherwise, tonight we’ll have some more quality gameplay at Mayhem Comic starting around 4pm. Hope to see you there!

With Turkey Day come and gone and the holiday season in full swing, we wanted to remind you of our super awesome first Second Edition tournament taking place this weekend.

You can find the link to event details here 🙂

Registration starts at 10am, with dials down at 11am. We’ll be using the most up to date FAQ (and rules from the official forum) and all product released by Thursday of this week will be legal.

This should be a super fun kickoff to our tournament run and will give us a chance to see how the Des Moines meta shapes up. Hope to see you all there!
