Announcing New Tournament Kits for A Game of Thrones

Ride into the A Game of Thrones: The Card Game Summer 2014 Season with new Tournament Kits! These exciting kits are now available for pre-order through our B2B store or your distributor.

Featuring epic battles and countless plots of intrigue, cunning, and deceit, A Game of Thrones: The Card Game continues to expand and build new game communities around the world. The Summer 2014 A Game of Thrones: The Card Game Tournament Kit comes with an event guide and new promotional materials to help support tournaments, league play, or any other event you wish to run. The order deadline for these kits is May 8th, and the Summer season begins in July.

What is a Tournament Kit?

At the beginning of 2014, we divided our seasonal Organized Play kits into Tournament Kits and Game Night Kits. Tournament Kits are for our competitive games, such as Android: Netrunner and X-Wing. These kits now include more prize support and promotional material designed to support competitive or casual tournament play at local retailers. The kit includes a guide to supporting an eight-week tournament series, but it can also be used to host a single tournament, more casual game nights or leagues, or whatever suits your local play environment best. Game Night Kits are also available for our cooperative games, such as Descent: Journeys in the Dark Second Edition and The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game.

In addition, each Summer 2014 A Game of Thrones: The Card Game Tournament Kit contains two deck boxes, an exclusive playmat, and 19 alternate art cards—stunning, full-bleed alternate art versions of Crossing the Ruby Ford
(two copies) and Castellan of the Rock (17 copies).

Please note: The alternate art cards in this kit are produced through FFG’s In-House Manufacturing, and as such, they may appear slightly different in color and texture from the game’s other cards. To be tournament legal, these cards must be sleeved with opaque or art sleeves.
