[MADG0BLIN]

If there is a date to be announced that would be great for me as well. Can plan some things then.
I'll most probably come.

It looks like we will be planning a tournament in Manchester next month, so if you are interested, there is a thread in the Council of Cobra

post there if you are interested

I understand that a lot people are interrested. But most of you are not given dates. So I have to pick one. So theJord: What do you mean with the second weekend? 14th february. If so the tournament will be on the 14th. please let me know asap!

Somebodyelse asked not to ban Galadriel LR. I don't want to ban any cards. However I propose an errata for Galadriel LR!

Jeroen, Unfortunally Eric Minkes informed me that he will not come. However I found in Marc Hemeleers a good replacement in judging.

Kind regards to you all!

Bassie!!! So you're still playing.. Okay!!!!! Would be fun to see you again. Still have some score to settle with ya;) hahaha. Don't worry about how many people will content.. I even convinced Mo, Menno and Erwin to play the tournament as well.. and I think there will be a few people from Almere.. Together with Groningen, Amsterdam it should be about 15 people and then I am not counting the people from abroard.. but like to see them as well.
So who will you bring allong with you?

By the way.. I tried to contact weta-studio.. unfortunattely they have not anwsered my request. So I will have sweet looks to Arco for prizesupport.. somewhere in the comming days!

Gil-estel are you able to get a list (from people abraord) who so far will content the tournament?

Planning the tournament for Valentines Day!? My wife will kill me!

[Smeagollum]

that's why I wasn't sure about what you meant with second weekend. will the 7th of febrauary be okay with you?

[TheJord]

Yeah sounds good to me.

[Radagast]

Every date is fine with me, I can keep the weekend free if it's planned this early..
A couple of questions..

- Is Galadriel, LR the only card that will be erratad/banned? Or are we still using the X-lists of old (for the set 1-10 round). I still think it's unneeded, cause every shadow that uses conditions/possessions has an answer...Castamir + Halberd still kills 2 guys, the besierers will personally kill her (and have lots of ways to get all those nasty conditions back on the table), nazgul and morgul orks don't use any conditions....Most of the elven events are useless anyway.
For the set 1-10 round, there should defenitely a banned list..

- Will we use the old rules or the new one, more specific: in Fellowship block, is it allowed to cancel the skirmish of the Ringbearer? (that was allowed back then...)

- The fifth round...maybe highlander standard? That should be fun...

I'm bringing at least two friends (that means I need to build 15 decks  , but that's also part of the fun  )

Okay People we have a definite date: 7th of february... Next week I will update everything. Including how to get at the 2 klaveren!

Bas, So far I'm using the current rules for blockdecks. Exept for Galadriel lr and set 9. According to me set 9 is an extra set not belonging to filmblock and everybody complained about Galadriel these days. So that's why I want to errata her, while in fact I will play her in a not-elvendeck. So i'm srewing myself:)

I still need the old erratalists from the first 3 block's. I remember that ranger's versatility was errated, as was thror's map. So if someone has these lists then I'll be glad to receive them, because I've to make 20 decks (4 persons). And indeed that's fun to do!!!

Bas: About canceling skirmishes with the ringbearer I need to talk with Gil-Estel and Marc Hameleers. If it's up to me: only cards that specify that the ringbearer is allowed to cancel a skirmish like frodo's cloak and Elbereth O Githiniel are allowed to cancel the skirmish. But as I said I need a talk with Gil-Estel. But feel free to contribute what you think about x-ing or errating cards for this tournament. Thing is that I think that a lot of people will like to play with old cards which were never used: like Aragorn from set 3.

Regards,

Jw

@ Jan Willem

No problem. It would have been nice to see eric again but seeing mark will also be very nice. Will Eugenie come too?

[Elrohir]

The ring-bearers skirmish should be allowed to cancel. (I thought there were some stealth events that cancel too?)

France and Austria are coming!

[MADG0BLIN]

I'll be there along with Gil-Estel.
Hope we can bring some more people.

But about the ring-bearer canceling a skirmish, I thought that wasn't allowed anymore.
When did they enforce this rule? After TTT or ROTK?

[TheJord]

After Reflections with the release of ARB.

[Smeagollum]

So what do you people want? Only the special cards like frodo's cloak are allowed to cancel a skirmish or just all the stealthevents. Remember we are not playing with set 9, so there are no AB.

[Smeagollum]

@ xizorlordofgondor: uhm no, that won't be a good idea.. They are divorced you see... And they didn't stay friends, but maybe his new girlfriend will come or her daughter (who seems to have lotr-cards)
