Composition (overall piece: does the basing make sense the way you've done it, is it eye catching and did you create a reason for us to stop and look)

Creativity (table top isn't good enough, we want to see fun & demonstartion of skill: weathering, scratch build, free hand, OSL, etc)

Impact (does it tell a story or is it just models standing in the dirt)

Expression of Interest Tickets which are for sale now.

What's an Expression of Interest Ticket?

Expression of Interest tickets are Non-Refundable $10 tickets that say you plan to attend without the commitment of the full ticket. It is also a way for us to know how much space to set aside for each event. You will see a lot more events on the EOI list than you've seen at Kippers' in the past as we are in the process of growing the event to include new events and this list includes those events we are currently negotiating. If you purchase a EOI ticket and the event does not actualize the $10 is still non-refundable.

Purchasers of EOI tickets will receive a $10 discount on their full ticket price once tickets go live for sale. If you purchase EOI for 1 event, the discount is transferrable to other event full tickets.

AND GO: What games should Kippers' Melee consider adding in the event hall?

Being at Gencon I saw and heard about a lot of games and tournament play for them. Is there anything you think we're missing?

You've seen me post lots lately about
Brave & Bold developed by my brothers who own Resurrection Games.

Here's a couple YouTube clips from some of the folks I met at Gencon to help you see just what it's all about
