They do not seem to favor ranged or spellcaster warbands.  More likely to favor get it on combat.Â

Something seems odd about the post. they talk about the championship on Friday at 10am.

All players in good standing with the DCI who hold an invitation to the 2007 D&D Miniatures Constructed Championship are eligible to compete in the event. The invitation list is compiled by the following criteria:

Returning 2006 D&D Miniatures Constructed Championship winner
Returning 2007 D&D Miniatures Limited Championship winner
Top 4 finishers from each D&D Miniatures 2007 Championship Series Qualifier
Top 8 finishers in the D&D Miniatures Championship Series Open (details below)
Top 50 D&D Miniatures worldwide DCI Constructed rated players, announced six weeks before the Championship


Isn't the top 8, what we're vying for in THIS toruney? How can those top 8 be invited to a tourney they are already at and they don't know who they are yet?

It's also kinda hard to have a final chance to get into the tounrey when the tourney you're getting a final chance to get into is being played at the SAME TIME!Â

May you find peace and happiness at the hand of Hextor.

The "Open" refers to the grinder does it not?

that's waht I assume.  HOWEVER, it's held at the SAME TIME as the tourney you are "grinding" to get into....

There are known errors posted in the Championship fact sheet and being discussed everywhere.Â

 

One, the Grinder is on Thursday, not Friday.Â
