Almost every weekend now we are seeing Kings of War, Deadzone and even Walking Dead events pop up across the world. This is happening because the awesome people in the community are tearing down those preconceptions about high level or competitive play environments.
Going to your first tournament is surely daunting, and even a small 6-8 man local store event can seem like a tall order for some. To be honest though these events are the way that most gamer's can get games in. Life can get in the way of the best laid plans, and so when you are not able to meet up regularly with your club or go to your local game store, the next best thing is to make a weekend out of gaming.
I wont ramble on why you should go to an event if you haven't already, plenty others have done that already. This blog post is here to share with you some great articles and videos that have already covered this very topic!
