Dungeons & Dragons

Living Forgotten Realms (LFR) Tables.  We usually have 1 or 2 tables going.  If you're interested in playing in an LFR adventure - check out the details on the Wizards web-site.

We are also running on-going campaign(s).  We usually have some drop in spots available, and you can get caught up on where we are at here.  If you're new to the game, it's ok to come by and watch.  When you are ready you can jump in to an open spot.  We recommend that new players try to at least read the sections of the Player's Handbook relevant to their character and general combat prior to their first game.

We take sign-ups to reserve spots at these tables - send an e-mail to info@tcgaa.ca to ask about spots for a given week and to get addded to our weekly e-mail update list.

Prizes:

Participate in 3 or more Hobby League events in the month and receive a Hobby League participation parallel rare while supplies last (one per player per month).  The prize pool consists of champion or tournament packs while supplies last, or boosters of the most recent set we have in stock.  Size of the pool depends on the number of players in the event (generally 1 pack per player in the tournament).  Prize pool is split between the top 2 (9 or less people), or top 4 (10 or more people).  The winner gets at least 50% of the prize pool.

Additional prizes are given away at the last tournament of the month based on total match wins for the month (and if that is tied - number of events played will be used).  So the more often you play, the better your chance for one of these prizes.  Additional prizes may include some of the following items depending on availability: playmats, t-shirts, parallel rare cards, or booster packs.
