Hi all,

The UK's first ever Elfball tournament is taking place on Saturday March 6th in Swindon, Wiltshire. Impact Miniatures are sponsoring the tournament, and it will be held in the function room of the Sandgate pub, which is free!

Elfball rules can be found here, it's really quick to pick up and fun to play.

Location:
Sandgate pub, Oxford Road, Swindon, SN3 4HD.
This is 5 minutes from Junction 15 of the M4, and 5 minutes taxi from Swindon station, which is on the main line from London to Bristol/Wales/Cornwall. Map here.

Rules:
TBC, but see Galak's post below for likely ones!

Prizes:
Impact Miniatures are providing quality prize support for this tournament - so get practising!
1st prize - 16 man Sarcos Team - see here for these fantastic minis
2nd prize - Pumpkin Queen set (Queen, Vampire Cat, 4 pumpkins)
3rd prize - 2 Viking Shapeshifters
Most points earned from opponent injuries - Sutekh

Timings:
9:30 registration for a 10am start, then approximately:
10:00 - 11:15 game 1
11:30 - 12:45 game 2
12:45 - 13:30 lunch
13:30 - 14:45 game 3
15:15 - 16:30 game 4

These timings will be flexible as lots of players will be new to the game, I imagine. After game 4 a winner will be announced, and people will be free to:
a) leave - boo!
b) play some more, using various optional rules/different teams
c) drink
d) a combination of b and c (most likely)

Cost: Nowt. Unless this would make people less likely to turn up, in which case send me a fiver and I'll buy you a couple of drinks.

If anyone's in the Swindon area and would like some practice games beforehand, let me know. Similarly, any questions, just post.

Mike

NB this is an edit of an original post asking if there were any elfballers in the country Very Happy
