Hi All,
The Guardians of Tyr will be holding the 3rd Annual X-Wing UK Team Championships on Sunday 15th October. I know its a few months away but thought I'd get it on ppl's radars.
In 2015 we sent 1 team along and managed to send 2 in 2016. Both events were a lot of fun and it would be cool if we could send a couple of teams along this year.
This year's event is in Milton Keynes on the 15th October. I understand from the event's facebook page that there will be 64 teams this year.
Tickets go on sale in July (exact date tbc) and last year the tickets were £75 for a team of three players so would expect something similar. As they're likely to go quickly I thought I'd try and mobilise people in advance.
Each team is made up of three players who each take one 100pt list. Each player on a team has to take a different faction, (i.e. each team has 1 Imperial/First Order, 1 Rebel/Resistance and 1 scum player). Teams are matched up against each other using a Swiss system, with individual games then chosen by the respective players from each team.
Let me know who's in and if there is enough interest we can then sort tickets and teams.
Matt
Players interested:
1. Matt (Scum) 2. Simran (Imperials) 3. Steve (Rebels/Scum) 4. Jono (Imperials/Scum) 5. George (Rebels/Scum) 6. Sam (Imperials/Scum) 7. Pete (Imperials) 8. 9.

Cool, on that note we currently have enough players for two teams.
Ppl like Pete haven't replied to this thread yet so could well get enough players for a 3rd team.
If you're interested and haven't signed up yet, please reply to this thread.

Thanks for the reminder. I should be up for this - ideally Imperial so I can get the last keychain.

As mentioned today, not fancying this anymore. The idea of practicing Imperials vs the current meta lists is really unappealing.

So... as this draws nearer, who is still interested? I am keen to secure the alt art card so definitely would like to go.
Would also probably like to put down the painted Kihraxz on the table as well for laughs. Happy to be competitive or casual as people prefer.

Quick bump up, Steve, Pete and I are heading along to the UK Team Champs as Eagle Sqdn Blue (two out of three have T Shirts)
There seems there might be enough interest for a second team if anyone would like to join us?
