| I put up a new mini-FAQ just to give people some basic concept of what the game is. People who have already read the rulebook won't benefit much from it. I also included a picture of the championship trophy. A huge steel dreamblade. It was shown at gama but I didn't see any pics of it on the web for some reason.

Thanks Mike!
I notice the trophy has plates on it ... will the trophy reside at WotC HQ or will the winner get to take it around like a gamer's Stanley Cup?
That dude is actually the metalsmith I think.
There will be smaller basically identical steel trophies for each annual winner. The large one gets engraved each year with the winners name and is displayed in our trophy case at events.

| Thank you Mike for posting this here.
I was just thinking today what it would be required to take the image of the Dreamblade and convert it into a format an automated laser cutter could use to make small scale trophies like those for local tournaments. You stole my idea! Well, it was thought of by you guys a while ago I am sure, I just must have ESP.
Good times! | |

| | Um, Chris, you wouldn't be able to fly home with that big-ass trophy in your lap so impressing the flight attendants will have to resort to your natural charm. [:p] | |

| | That is a really cool idea. Having a smaller trophy to keep and having your name engraved on the plates is great. It would be nice to have my name on their, and see I could impress the ladies with a smaller trophy on the plane. | |

Are you kidding, the guys in the camo gear love when you bring them on. It gives them something to do at the airport.
Actually, I would say the airport might frown on it as a carry on, nd the guys with the guns don't tkae kindly to that happening.
I think when I win I'll pack it in my suitcase. [:)] | |
