I'm off and should be able to make it!

Just waiting on word from MadVlat, not to mention anyone else random from the store.

Looks like pretty much standard Booster Draft stuff. That's cool.

Should be a good time! :)

There are 2 games folks, don't mistake that.

There is a Booster Draft AND a Constructed Deck game, so you need money for the Booster Draft and a Deck for the main game.

l5r.com took a while to load, but Imperial Gift sounds really nice. Sounds like we'll be getting 50 cards at the event.... and non-uniques will come in sets of 3.

So the Samurai Championship / Imperial Gift arrived today... and the kit is in my hands...

What you want to know is about the Imperial Gift card set...

There are plenty of them to go around, so anyone that attends gets an expansion set! Wow that is totally awesome of AEG. Or maybe its like a crack dealer that just wants to hook you on the good stuff for free, then will make you pay later.

We all have a Promo Card, a set of 3 for the winner, and 3 more to be given out to other people. I also have a small collection of other promo cards for winners of the other events, or those people that just deserve them! I can see alot of stuff for 2nd and even 3rd place finishers. Pyg and I (mostly Pyg) have scored some other things for the prize packs as well.

Remember, Nov 8th, 10am to 5pm (see above schedule for events) at Centerfield Cards and Comics.

Bring 15$ with you to cover the cost of Booster Draft, its likely to be less than that, but we will also be pitching in for pizza or better yet Chinese food, or bring your own lunch.

Just to clear up lunch, it is not provided, but we can easily order food as a group and have it delievered so not as to waste much time. The store also has a soda machine 1.25$ per bottle. Perhaps someone would want to donate a 12 Pack of Diet Doctor Pepper to the cause?
