As the end of April and registration for PrairieCon rapidly approaches, I wanted to take a moment to talk about how registering your team for the PrairieCon D&D Tournament is going to work. As with all PrairieCon registration, it is first come, first serve. If you have a team of six players, all six still need to sign up. Let me repeat that – all six need to sign up.
Team captains will need to send an email to the contact address listed in the game description, and they can list all of the members of their team, as well as their team name. However, this email does not guarantee that anyone will be registered, nor does it save a spot. If someone on your team does not register, and the event fills up before they have a chance to do so, your team will be assigned someone from the pool of individual registrants who are not already on a team. So… get your people together and ensure that they register as soon as they can once registration opens.
If you plan to register as an individual without a team, that is totally cool. You will be assigned to a team that has room.
Not excited enough about the tournament yet? Here are a few more pictures of the super awesome terrain designed by Ernie Cameron to keep you on the edge of your set with anticipation!
Good news everyone!
This year, the D&D Tournament will be using the 5th Edition of Dungeons & Dragons. This means that they game system is very straightforward and easy to learn. You don’t need to have a single bit of 5th Edition experience in order to come out and play. We have a rules preamble at the beginning of the event, and while we assume you have played a roleplaying game before, we also assume that you haven’t played any 5th Edition D&D. The tournament has a fun and friendly atmosphere, and all scoring is based on roleplaying, problem solving, and accomplishing goals, so your limited exposure to the rules will not inhibit you in the least.
The other good news is that Ernie Cameron has lovingly hand-crafted some terrific terrain for our use in the event.
Not only will we get to use it for our event, but it will be one of the prizes for the winning team!
I have attached a couple of teaser pictures; thank Ernie!
Greetings PrairieCon community!
We wanted to take a moment to detail a few changes to the format of the D&D Tournament at PrairieCon this year, and to debut the first of six pieces of character art for the event.
This year, you can register for the tournament as an individual or as a team! Teams must be between four and six players; if you don't have the full six players, then individuals may be added to your team to round out the groups. This means that we will have a winning group rather than a winning individual this year!
Furthermore, the tournament will be a two round (4-slot) affair, rather than the traditional three rounds. We will run the tournament once on Saturday and once on Sunday so that you can have a bit more flexibility when working out your gaming schedules for the weekend - winners will be announced at the conclusion of the Sunday games.
If you have any questions about the format or rules, feel free to post them here in the comments or PM the page and we will make sure that Craig sees them. We will announce more information and details in the coming weeks, along with previews of more character art by Alyssa Fraser and some sweet custom terrain by Ernie Cameron that will be used in the scenario.
For now, check out "The Smuggler"
March 25th at the Central Community Club
From 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
The Central Community Club is located at 529 4th st. in Brandon, MB

All players are welcome to join.
The canteen will be open, a few vendors are usually in attendance, and there is a good selection of games from which to choose (we do encourage you to bring your own games as well).Although the drop-in nature of the event tends to lend itself best to board games, we generally have some Magic, Warhammer, and Pathfinder Society going as well.
See you all there!
