Alkemy,Tournaments

More Alkemy goodness. I got to play another game of Alkemy last night and I must say the game just keeps getting better the more I play it. Last night we got to test one of the prologue scenarios released by Kraken Editions earlier this year. The scenario was called the Informant and follows the story line setup in the prologues intro, essentially you are trying to find this man you had an artifact that many people wish to possess through the scenario the objective is to talk to as many information are you work your way down the table and gather enough information to find the man. Basically you have 3 informants close to the starting area that are worth 2 point you have 2 more about half way down the table that are work 2 points and then a one more at the complete opposite end of the table worth 3 points once you have scored 5 points the game is over. This scenario forces players to make decisions about when to fight and when to run which forces you to play the scenario and not the opponent which is nice. there is also the very distinct posiblity of a draw which is always cool. Over all a very fun mission and good game last night.

In other news I am putting the final touches on a tournament that is going to take place in mid octover more details will be posted here in 24 hours or so but it should be a pretty exciting
