World Championship Events for Android: Netrunner and X-Wing (TM)
The FFG World Championship Weekend is your chance to participate in the world’s first championship events for Android: Netrunner and X-Wing™!
Pre-register now and make your plans to join us for a weekend of excellent gaming at FFG headquarters in Roseville, MN. This November 9th – 11th, you can participate in the high-stakes cyberstruggles of Android: Netrunner, the tactical space combat of X-Wing, or both!
Android: Netrunner
Register now for the FFG World Championship Weekend and the chance to participate in the first ever Android: Netrunner The Card Game World Championship tournament!
The tournament’s top four finishers will each earn a set of seven acrylic identity cards, and the World Champion wins a trophy, a one-of-a-kind playmat, and the opportunity to work with the FFG LCG developers to upgrade the game with his own card design.
Players looking to participate in the World Championship tournament need to bring both corp and runner decks. Match rounds last sixty-five minutes, and you and your opponent play two games, taking turns playing corp and runner decks. The player who scores more total points over both games wins the match.
Start prepping your ice and icebreakers. Your chance to run at the title of World Champion begins Friday, November 9th at 4 PM.
X-Wing™
On Saturday, November 10th the FFG World Championship Weekend is your chance to participate in the first ever X-Wing World Championship tournament!
In X-Wing, the miniatures game of tactical space combat, powerful Rebel X-wings collide with nimble Imperial TIE fighters. Whether you field rookie pilots or legends like Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader, the beautifully detailed miniatures and intuitive gameplay immerse you in the game’s cinematic space dogfights. The epic space battles of X-Wing are designed to be every bit as dramatic and action-packed as those from the classic Star Wars trilogy, and the action is magnified when you play X-Wing with the most skillful and enthusiastic squad leaders in the galaxy!
The X-Wing World Championship Tournament will be run as a head-to-head Dogfight, with asteroids. Match rounds last seventy-five minutes. Each player may choose to field a Rebel or Imperial fleet worth up 100 points, and tournament seating ignores the player’s faction.
Register now. The fate of the galaxy depends upon you. The X-Wing World Championship Tournament begins Saturday, November 10th at Noon.
No Time to Wait
At the FFG World Championship Weekend, you can compete for these two new World Championship titles with the world’s best and most enthusiastic players. You receive participation prizes just for playing, and the Android: Netrunner and X-Wing tournaments are your chance to write your name into the histories of these games as their first ever World Champion!
Don’t delay. Pre-registration closes October 26th, so register today!
