1 Month Out!

We’re just over a month out from the 2024 Vanguard GT! Over the next month I’m going to be posting reminders and updates on a regular basis to make sure everyone is up to speed. So keep an eye out for those on the website, our Facebook page, and Facebook event.

Lists are due on Friday, April 19th, and we’ll have a livestream of the first round pairings on either the following Tuesday or Wednesday. Make sure to get any first round challenges in before lists are due!

Less than 2 months!

We are less than 2 months away from the 2024 Vanguard GT! I’ve got 2 things to remind everyone of today. First, if you’ve registered but haven’t paid yet, please send your payment in as soon as you can. You can see if I’ve received your payment or not on the Participants page. Second, we’ve got 3 first round challenges so far, but I’m sure there are more lurking out there. So post your challenges somewhere both I and your intended can see them.

Let’s talk about First Round Challenges

Now that we know who all the players are, we can start talking about First Round Challenges.

For folks who haven’t been to Vanguard GT before, I like to add a little extra incentive for Challenges. First, the tables are all themed after armies and places in Pannithor. So, when you are challenged I like to put that game on the table that matches your army (if there is one and it’s available) for little bit of narrative home field advantage. Second, I print medals for challenge winners, proclaiming you either a Conqueror or Defender, depending on which side of the challenge you were on.

To issue a challenge, just post it some place that both I and the challenged player can see it. Our Facebook Event is a good option, as is the Mid-Atlantic Regional Facebook Group. The list of this year’s tables and current challenges can be found here.
