The most prestigious one-day tournament in Toronto, the Orion Cup, is back! Held on June 27th in downtown Toronto at the game store Meeplemart, the tourney will future three games. Here is all the info you need:

COST:
$15 for NAF members
$15 for non-NAF (of which $5 will go towards membership)
STYLE:
Resurrection, Swiss match-making and 3/1/0 points for wins, draws and losses.
TEAM BUILD:
Each coach will receive 1100K gold crowns. This money can be used to hire players, cheerle aders, assistant coaches and star players and purchase fan factors, rerolls, apothecaries and inducements. At least 50K of the 1100K have to be used to buy inducements (e.g. Bloodweiser babes, star players, bribes, special play cards, chef etc.). These inducements will be fixed for all three matches.
According to their tier, teams will receive an additional amount of money to purchase skills for their players. No player can receive more than two skills, and no stat upgrades may be purchased. Normal skills cost 20K, double skills 30K.
Tier 1 teams receive 70K: Amazons, Chaos Dwarves, Dark Elves, Dwarves, Lizardmen, Norse, Orcs, Skaven, Undead, Wood Elves.
Tier 2 teams receive 110K: Chaos, Chaos Pact, High Elves, Humans, Khemri, Necromantic, Nurgle, Pro Elves
Tier 3 teams receive 140K: Slann, Underworld, Vampires
Tier 4 teams receive 170K: Goblins, Halflings, Ogres
BONUS:
Each coach who submits the final roster to orioncup15@gmx.net before June 24th AND shows up before 11:15AM on Saturday will receive a free random "Miscellaneous mayhem" card to use once throughout the tournament.
CLARIFICATIONS:
There is no minimum amount of players before purchasing star players, but you have to field at least 11 players.
If both coaches field the same star player, both clones will play, but gain the skill "Disturbing Presence" for this match.
If a coach chooses to induce a special play card, the card will be randomized before each match. Decks can be chosen before each match.
Important: all fatalities inflicted from blocks, fouls, secret weapons and crowd-surfs count towards total number of casualties (i.e. not failed dodges etc.).
Unless stated otherwise, the CRP rules apply.
NOTES:
Due to the limiting opening hours, the 2h play time will be strictly enforced.
There shall be various awards.
Special play cards will be provided, as well as teams if possible. Please inquire.
For your offline reading pleasure, there is also a handy PDF available.

I assume you mean "rain man".
I asked, but it's quite a long drive for Daggers. |

Ha, thats not who he means, but I assume that is to be an insult...definitely, definitely an insult...
Yeah, sorry, 4 hour drive for three games is a little much for me....the round trip is more than the actual game play. Although I have really been meaning to order stuff from Meeplemart, this might save me on shipping. |

These are the trophies!
Advanced engineering allows them to be used as a stand-alone unit or a fridge magnet.
For the fortunate of you owning a refrigerator (not included). |
