NEWS: Mantic is Throwing Down the Benjamins (for Kings of War)
Many of you know that Clash of Kings Tournaments are coming next year – but we have something very special planned!We believe that Kings of War is a fantastic gaming system. However, we also realize that switching to a new game is a big commitment – so we wanted to offer a reward that recognized and sweetened that effort (don’t forget you can always use your miniatures in other gaming systems too ;)!
We are offering a once-in-a-lifetime cash prize pool of £1500 for both the UK and the USA Clash of Kings Tournaments.
Clash of Kings UK National TournamentHeld on the 8th/9th February 2013 at Maelstrom Games’ Eye of the Storm, you’ll play six exciting 1800 point Kings of War games across two days in the first Mantic Kings of War tournament – using the brilliant new Hardback Rulebook. The USA tournament will be held during Adepticon in 2013, and the exact format will be finalized nearer the time – but the prizes will be exactly the same format (except it will be in dollars, not pounds!)
While we don’t think playing your favorite hobby for money is necessarily a great plan, because these two are the inaugural Clash of Kings tournaments, we really want to help hobbyists make the switch to this gaming system. The more people that do, the more people we’ll all have to play against!
Here’s the breakdown of the prizes:Tournament Champion – £1000 (or $1000 for the USA tournament)
Second Place – £350 ($350)
Third Place – £150 ($150)

Tickets for the UK National are now available from the Mantic webstore at a special launch price of £12.49 which includes entry to the two day tournament and lunch on both days. You can also download the official Clash of Kings Tournament Pack here.
As we have said we will also host a Clash of Kings US Tournament at Adepticon in 2013 (Date TBA) where there will be a prize pool of $1500 up for grabs and we’ll have additional prizes and hopefully loads of fun as well – so look out for a future newsletter for more details!
