Fan Boy Three!

Welcome to the Mid May Mailer from Fan Boy Three. Mid May brings us a plethora of licenced properties, with the Star Wars Living Cardgame Regionals, the May Kitso for the Star Trek TCG, the climax of No Man’s Land for HeroClix (where the entire Batcave is up for grabs), Magic: Standard win a box of Dragon’s Maze and our regular date with Warmachine!

Then next week sees our Spring Battleroads for Pokemon as our players prepare to do battle at the UK Nationals, alongside a double bill of Dragon’s Maze Game days (to win funky mats) as well as our regular monthly Legacy tournament.

Then in two weeks, it’s our biggest Magic weekend ever, as we put on a quadruple bill of top flight Magic action – PTQ Theros, the final WMCQ of the season, with side events for GPT Rimini and GPT Warsaw. The last two PTQ’s have nudged the 200 player mark, but with any luck we can shatter that record (and possibly hit the 227 we’d need to secure a ninth round!) With that in mind, we’re seriously ramping up the prize support at 5 wins or 15 points guaranteed... so if we hit nine rounds, everyone on 5:4 walks away with a Dragon’s Maze Guildpack!

But that’s not all!!! We also have brand new Weiss Schwartz, the X-Wing Miniatures Regional, the return of Shadowfist, HeroClix: Fear Itself and Modern Masters coming down the pipe. This June really is going to be busting out all over – with some of the biggest events we’ve ever run!

(But more about that in two short weeks)

New year... new congratulations feed, and how better to start than by congratulating our very own Ross Silcock for finishing second at the Star City Legacy event in Doncaster on January 13th, while Ben Heath finished 4th in the Standard event on the 12th. Both walked away with big money prizes, and I can't think of anybody who deserves big money prizes more. 

Register for our monthly Event's E-mailer and start playing in our in store events today. Hey - its the only e-mailer you'll receive which comes with its own different theme song each and every month.

Getting There
