Death Match Arena Events

People seem to love our Death Match Arena games, where players create D&D 4th edition characters and fight against each other for fun and prizes. So much so, that we're expanding our offerings in August and September into two different types of play: League and Arena play.

Arena Play

Players create characters (or use the ones they have for League play) and are grouped together in teams of 2 or 3 (depending on turnout). They are pitted against other teams over the course of three matches, with the winners paired against the winners and the losers against the losers in Swiss format. At the end, the winning team gets the entire pool of entry fees as store credit prizes! Entry: $5/player Dates: Thursday, August 28th at 7:00PM and Saturday, August 30th at 1:00PM

Death Match League Play

Starting September 1st, players can join the Death Match League. Players make as many 6th level characters as they wish, using the guidelines listed below. At any time, you can show up in the store with your character(s) and fight against any other player who's present (but you can only fight the same person with each character once per day). If you win, you get 2 points. If you lose, you get 1 point. At the end of the month, the players of the top two characters get special prizes. Jim and Scott will have characters participating, but will not be eligible for prizes. Entry: $5/character (players can have multiple characters if they wish) Dates: Any time (for chargen help come on the Arena dates)

Character Generation

Players make a 6th level character using Method 1 or Method 2 for ability generation (PHB pages 17-18). Level the character up to 6th level, using the rules on page 143 of the Dungeon Master's Guide (you get 1 7th level magic item, 1 6th level magic item, and 1 5th level magic item as well as 500 gold pieces which can be spent on additional equipment as desired (including magic items). You may take a lower-level magic item in place of the level you are allowed if you wish (thus you can have two 6th level items and a 5th level item, for example). Only the races and classes from the Player's Handbook are allowed. Note that the updates/errata from the Wizards website are in effect (pay particular attention to the changes to Stealth).
