4 Diamonds Cup 2012, May 19th, Harrisburg PA

[ForceCommander]

Mark yer calendars… its 4 Diamonds time!

The 4 Diamonds Cup is back for our FIFTH improbable year!

What are you blabbering about?

The 4 Diamonds Cup is a one day Blood Bowl tournament on May 19th 2012, in scenic Harrisburg PA (world renowned Blood Bowl hotspot!).

The tournament is 3 rounds, LRB6 (including Chaos Pact, Slann, and Underworld teams), 1 million gold to purchase rosters, and a choice of skill packages for your team.

Cost is $25, which gets you 2 Tournament d6, 5 raffle tickets, a gut packing homemade lunch, and whatever other stuff I can think of before the event!

ALL money collected will be donated to the 4 Diamonds Fund

I DO love Blood Bowl, and supporting kids with cancer, but I ALSO love prizes…

Well YOU are in luck!

We always have a ridiculous pile of raffle and prize items from our fantastic sponsors, and our Squig Craftsmen are hard at work on a team and dugout for the big raffles.

There will also be Trophies for Champion, 2nd Place, Best Sportsman, Best Team, Most Brutal, Most TDs, and the humiliating glory of the Paddle of Shame!

Ask anyone who has been to our events, our prize and raffle table is CRAZY!

Ok, ok, stop haranguing me!

The website is ready to go, so get over there and register!

We have pictures of past events, as well as a message board for smack talking.

Lots of updates to come, as prize and raffle items start to arrive

Prize donations from our awesome sponsors are starting to roll in! Pictures will be coming soon; we have sweet loot from Neomics, Gaspez-Arts, Portable Warfare, KR Multicase, Chaos Cup, NAF, FF-Fields, and more!

The Skaven team we will be raffling off is on it's way to the Painting Lab, and this year's dugout is starting to come together.

Please take some time to check out the photos on our Facebook page at The 4 Diamonds Cup!

I hope I can make it. It's a bit of a drive for me, but it'll be my first tourney.

I hope you can make it as well! Where are you coming from?

This is a pretty good first tourney, since it is a charity event everyone is pretty laid back... except Norse, but I'll make sure you don't play him.

Drop me a line if you have any questions.

Nice!

In other news, I'll have some pics up this weekend of some of the prizea and raffle items!

[ForceCommander]

Finally got some pics of all the prizes!





Dice!

Everyone who attends will get (2) tournament d6s (in your choice of festive colors), as well as (3) Reroll and (1) Leader Reroll markers





The Champion's Loot!

I'm sure that the honor, glory, street rep, and Blood Bowl groupies that come with being the 4 Diamonds Champion is more than enough reward for the true Blood Bowl competitor.... but in case it isn't, the winner gets some cool stuff!

A KR Multicase Aquilla 4 will let you carry all your teams in comfort and style, and the shoulder strap means you will have both hands free for hand shaking and autograph signing.

A custom 4 Diamonds Cup Champion board from FF Fields will let all your future opponents know that when they sit down to play you, they are playing a Champion (since it's written across the center of the board)

And last, a stylish 4 Diamonds Cup Champion football jersey will put all those jerks at the gym on notice that you are NOT to be messed with.... because you are a Champion





Boards!

We have a sweet Chaos Cup board (courtesy of JP and the Chaos Cup Committee), and a 4 Diamonds Cup board... both made by the super talented guys at FF Fields.com!

These will be raffle prizes, so even if you are terrible at Blood Bowl you could still win one!




Cases!

Now that you've spent all that time and money on a tricked out Blood Bowl team, you can't just carry it around in a cardboard box.... and thanks to our awesome sponsors, the 4 Diamonds Cup is here to help!

We have a Portable Warfare bag, a KR Multicase Aquilla 2, (2) KR Multicase Aquilla 1, and a KR Multicase Accessory case with dice and tape!

The Portable warfare bag will hold 4 or 5 teams, and has pockets for dice and rules. The Aquilla 2 will comfortably hold 2 or 3 teams, and is a nice size to slide into a backpack or shoulder bag. The Aquila 1 is a perfect size for a single team, and the accessory case doubles as a dice rolling tray!





Prizes!

As always, our awesome sponsors have CHOKED our prize bin with stuff.... seriously, we are choking on sweet Blood Bowl loot.

In this pic we've got some of our raffle items:

FF Fields Streetbowl board
Gaspez Arts Dark Elf Team
Impact! Middle Kingdoms team w/ cyclops
Neomics Goblin team w/ (2) Trolls and Head Coach
Impact! Wrat Ogre
Impact! Weather Dice and Weather Marker set
Impact! Gavials (x6)
Impact! Gnome Contraptions (x3)
A bunch of block dice
Bunker Brawl dice
Chaos Cup coin

We've still got prizes coming in, and we haven't even taken pictures of all the stuff we already have!



Dice Trays!

Some people love flinging their dice across the board, smashing models, scaring babies, and generally making the world a more dangerous and pointy place.

We call these people barbarians.

For you, the refined and civilized Blood Bowl player, nothing but the best die retention device will do. Fortunately, the 4 Diamonds Cup has custom rectangular die bounce curtailment receptacles available in our raffle pool.

Die valet not included.

Some pictures of the raffle team... there was a last minute switch from Skaven to Undead/Necro! There are still some Ghouls and a Chainsaw-er in the paint queue, but I wanted to let people see one of the big raffle items!


The whole team



Mummies and Wights



Flesh Golems and Zombies



Werewolves and Zombies



Ghouls and markers


You need to get your butts to 4 Diamonds, so go sign up!

[ForceCommander]

Many Bothans died to bring you these pictures.... but who cares? Friggin' Bothans.

Trophies for the Victorious Victors of Victory!





And a fuzzy picture of what might be a Fully Operational Battle Station.... or the dugout for this year





So don't miss out on the premiere charity Blood Bowl Tournament in the South Central PA area!

Are you excited?? I'm excited!!

[SetzerGabbz]

I'm pretty damn excited. I have anywhere from just myself to me and 3 others coming, so I'm sure it'll be a good time.

[ForceCommander]

Just a week left! We just received some more great stuff from Impact, and the final touches are going on the team and dugout!

See everyone there!

[ForceCommander]

Great news! More is always better, and I can promise a good time (well, almost promise anyway)

[Norse]

since it is a charity event everyone is pretty laid back... except Norse, but I'll make sure you don't play him.

Jamie

oy!!

I'm as laid back as the next uptight, overworked, underpaid, wanted on tax evasion charges OCD guy..

see ya in 7 days!!

[ForceCommander]

One last thing, if possible PLEASE email me your roster before the tournament. It really, really helps me out to get rosters checked and entered into the score keeping software ahead of time.

Also, remember there will be a Stunty Cup this year (Stunty teams are Halflings, Goblins, Lizardmen with no Saurus, Ogres with no more than 2 Ogres, Underworld with no Skaven) Don't forget that playing a Stunty team makes you immune to the Paddle of Shame!

So send your rosters to forcecommander@comcast.net jerks!
