On the Road…Where Does He Get Those Wonderful Toys?

That is one of my favorite lines from a movie (can you guess which movie?) but it also leads me to answer a question that has been on a lot of player’s minds recently.

How Do I Get Those Wonderful Convention Prizes?

So in the interest of letting the players know, let’s explain how it’s going to work.

At Origins Game Fair 2011, players will be able to win prizes in the following fashion:

Battle Royales will get the winner a random Horsemen of Apocalypse as a prize.

National Grinders are an 8-person, 3 round Swiss format tournament.  In the third round, 2 undefeated players will be playing off and the winner gets a seat at the National Finals on Saturday and his choice between 2 random Horsemen of Apocalypse and the loser gets the other Horsemen.

GSX Superbooster Event will get prizes for each player from amongst Horsemen of Apocalypse, GSX chases, and Dr. Manhattan Colossal figures.

Captain America Release Event will get Horsemen of Apocalypse as prizes for the top eight players.

National Finals will get the winner a badge for GenCon, a bye into the World Semi-Final Constructed Event on Saturday at GenCon, a set of the Horsemen of Apocalypse, and other prizes.  Second place through Fourth place will get a bye into the World Semi-Final Constructed Event on Saturday at GenCon, another Horsemen of Apocalypse figure, and other prizes.

At GenCon 2011, players will be able to win prizes in the following fashion:

Marvel Battle Royales will get the winner a Moonstone as a prize.

DC Battle Royales will get the winner a Wonder Woman as a prize.

King of the Hill on Thursday through Saturday will get the winner another 2 boosters of product so they can play again.  Make it to the King of the Hill Finals on Sunday and you will get a set of the Horsemen of Apocalypse.  Win the King of the Hill Final and you get to design your own ATA, BFC, or feat with game design plus Moonstone and Wonder Woman.

GSX Superbooster Event will get prizes for the top 16 players from amongst Horsemen of Apocalypse, Wonder Woman, Moonstone, GSX chases, and Dr. Manhattan Colossal figures.

The Constructed Events will get prizes for 1st and 2nd place players from amongst Wonder Woman, Moonstone, and other prizes.

Worlds Grinders are an 8-person, 3 round Swiss format tournament.  In the third round, 2 undefeated players will be playing off and the winner gets a seat at the World Semi-Finals on Saturday and his choice between 2 random figures from a pool of Horsemen of Apocalypse, Moonstone, and Wonder Woman and the loser gets the other figure.

World Semi-Finals will get the top 16 players a prize from the Horsemen of Apocalypse, Moonstone, or Wonder Woman prize pool and a spot in the World Finals on Sunday.

World Finals will get the winner a prize package to include designing your own figure in an upcoming set (subject to licensor and WizKids approval).  Can you design the next Nightcrawler or Black Adam?  In addition the winner will get a set of Horsemen of Apocalypse, Wonder Woman, Moonstone, and other fabulous prizes.  The rest of the top 16 players from Worlds will get prizes from amongst the Horsemen of Apocalypse, Wonder Woman, Moonstone, and other prizes.

As you can see, there are lots of wonderful prizes for our players at Origins and GenCon this year!

For those not attending the conventions, another way to get the Horsemen of Apocalypse, Wonder Woman, and Moonstone will be announced by the end of the year.

Wait, did I forget something…I have to find my cards so I can remember what it was…
