Information
It's time again for Table-Top Blood Bowl!! We have all had enough of computer gaming and random number generators. It’s time to roll some dice and crush the hopes and dreams of your enemies. This will be the first annual Infinity Cup. The Infinity Cup is a Blood Bowl tournament to benefit the charity of Logan’s Avengers. Logan Gwynn was an adorable local boy that lost his battle with Leukemia at the age of 2. He was one of the bravest and sweetest boys we have ever had the privilege to know, a real superhero to all his family and friends. A few years ago, we started gathering school supplies for the children in the area as a way of honoring Logan. Last year, we were able to supply around 150 children with all their school supplies and backpacks. This year we would like to supply more than 200. We also adopt families that need a little help around Christmas.

Since we have not been able to play in a year, we have decided to give everyone a LOT of gold!! Every team will be bloated with 2,000,000 Gold pieces!! We are playing Blood Bowl according to the Season 2 rules on Saturday and Blood Bowl Sevens on Sunday.

This tournament will be held at our new office at 25 McClellan Drive in Nassau, New York. This is NOT on Long Island. Nassau is a small town about halfway from Albany, NY to Pittsfield, MA.

Please contact me by email if you’re coming from out of town and I’ll help you with arrangements.

COVID Stuff:
We are holding this tournament at my office so I can better control the atmosphere, timing, etc. We want to make everyone as comfortable and secure as possible. There is a lot of space, we’ll spread out quite a bit. We may play a few games outside, as well, if weather permits. We will sanitize the office before and after the tournament. Masks will be required at this tournament unless eating or drinking. If you don’t have one, we’ll supply one. We will not share dice at this tournament. Only GW or NAF dice are permitted, as a result.
