Apologies Paul - TGA is sadly blocked on the computers at my new work so I've not seen this! I've now updated. Happy to say we've hit the same number of ticket sales as 2019's event - would be great to get past this if anyone else wants to get involved! 

[Theslowcentury]

For anyone who hasn't seen it on the socials, here's a preview of the trophy (it has since been painted up). Just one of the trophies available! 

[Theslowcentury]

Just sent an email out to players with an updated pack and joining instructions but will also post a short version here:


We are looking forward to welcoming you to Devon Destruction next weekend. Here's an email with key details ahead of time and a reminder of the pack. We have made one change to the pack in that each grand strategy can only be used once, so you'll need to make your way through five over the games. 
The link to the event on Best Coast Pairings is here: https://www.bestcoastpairings.com/eventlanding/eau17ul3?embed=false 
You can register via this link and then upload your list via the app. All lists should additionally be emailed through to store@kirtongames.com

Also, here are the final versions of the trophies for the event! 

 

[Chris Tomlin]

Looking forward to this!

Those all important Devon Destruction results!
 

Thanks to everyone for coming to Devon Destruction! It was a great weekend and you guys are fantastic! Extra thanks to Matt from Pro Painted Stuidos for some great painting trophies to go with our bespoke hammers. Congratulations to Mat Davies, the table one terminator!So tired now but equally, so grateful for every player who turned up and made it such a joy. Much needed and long overdue. We would love to get a triple figures event on next year so if you enjoyed it, spread the word and let’s try to smash 100 (all things permitting)!
