cambridge. i play x-wing in hamilton tho - at the immortals tabletop games club - they are mostly 40k/fantasy players there, just 2 other x-wing players.
sometimes i travel over to tauranga to play there. we have an x-wing club that meet every month. about 5-6 players. u?

JAFA myself, might see you at one of the Tauranga or Auckland events then

One of our club members just emigrated to Hamilton, and we got him hooked on X-Wing before he left. Will forward this thread to him.

its on Sunday November 24th. venue to be announced. im judging it.
3 rounds then cut to top4.
max 16 players.
60min rounds.
100pt squads.
FF tournament rules.
prizes include alt art. pilots. 1st place is wedge, i think all entries will get the Black Squadron Pilot.
probably be spot prizes of acrylic tokens of some type as well, although seriously board is putting up the prizes.
you wouldnt have heard nething because its was only confirmed to be happening last week.

you keen to play in it?

I've never played (its on my to-do list), so I'm keen if I can find a loaner squadron and get in some practice games. Theres x wing players at the my club that could hopefully provide both things...

You should post a thread at the cityguard forum, theres a fair few x wing players here that might be keen

gr8 to see some x-wing players in here from nz more than on bgg or ff forums.
this all bodes well for some of us getn together for a game sometime eh!?

Got some bites already, wondering what the venue is if possible and what the entry fee is. Cheers

Hi Darth Wookie! my mate evil toast forwarded me this link. I have been to immthortals a few times and I haven't seen anyone play xwing, maybe we should plan to meet there at some point.

welcome!
