    The following is a message I got from Bobby about SRCIII

    << Date: March 31rst will be the date for the R:TW tourney, and the finale of
     the SRC storyline.  Start time will be noon.

     Entry fees will be higher this year, prolly around $15.00, but at least
     $12.00.

     Place:
     The Green Dragon
     7671 Northwoods Blvd.
     North Chas, SC 29406
     (843)-797-2052

     Format will be a Wyrm Hunt format.  The conditions of this are as follows:

     1)  All decks must contain at least 15 renown of Wyrm Enemy Characters.
     2)  Any NON-WYRM character in a victory pile is worth only half it's
     renown, rounded down.
     3)  Any alternate victory conditions such as the Red Talon and Uktena Tribe
     card victory condition will not grant a win.
     4)  The tournament will consist of three rounds of multi-player swiss, with
     the top three players going to a final round where final placings will be
     determined.
     5)  After the final standings are acheived, the top three finishers will
     then conduct a vote amongst themselves to determine this year's special
     honor prize recipient for showing appropriate Honor, Wisdom, and Glory.
     6) First place prize will be a head trophy of a Wyrm creature.  Other
     prizes will include a statue of last year's SRC winner, Drinks of Guiness,
     and two others to be determined very soon but will be sculpted by Henry
     Higgenbotham, designer and artist of the three core rulesbooks for the new
     3rd Ed. D&D game.
     7) Every attendee this year will recieve a special uncut sheet of R:TW
     promos particular to the SRC storyline as well as a special dice/token
     pouch made just for this event.  Those wishing specific glyphs or markings
     on a pouch should get in touch with Zeplyn at zeplyn@aol.com for details.

     The R:TA event I was going to try to do this year I am going to have to
     forego, as I just do not have the time or resources to put into it.

     Take care,

     Bobby/Dances

Subject: [Rage] Directions and Places to Stay for SRCIII

      
    Directions:  These directions are based on the traveler having to take I-26
    into Charleston.  If you are traveling by any other means or direction, I can
    give you directions specifically.

    Take I-26 east to Charleston.
    Take the Ashley-Phosphate Road exit number 209.
    At the stop sign, hang a left -- this takes you to the light on Ashley
    Phosphate Rd.
    At the light, hang a left again, and go to the next light.
    At the light, hang a left again (this is Northwoods Blvd).
    Go down Northwoods Blvd till you see the Carolina Ice Palace on the left, and
    the Green Dragon is a few stores down from that, you can't miss it.

    If coming in past midnight, the store may or may not be open, and I will be
    there for anyone that needs help as long as it is open.  Give a call there
    (843-797-2052) and ask for Logan.

    Places to Contact to Stay:  Here is a short list of places to stay within
    walking distance (<1mi) of the Green Dragon.

    Red Roof Inn: 843-572-9100
    Super 8 Motel: 843-572-2228

    One more thing...
    Could those of you considering making it down here, please let me know so I
    have an idea of how big the invasion will be and be prepared to receive you
    most graciously. ;)

    Thanks,

    Zeplyn
