If you need even more convincing on why you need to be there then check out last year’s articles from the show where we played loads of brilliant board games, card games and drooled over amazing looking miniatures. I’ll be there again this year and have already lined up some great interviews, not only for Polyhedron Collider but I’ll be working with the UK Games Media Network to get you the best news and interviews from the big names in gaming.

Congrats on finishing your first tournament. I'm looking forward to my first here in about two weeks. Just a thought, but even if your opponent is using the app, feel free to ask about reading the cards. Part of the rules, and good sportsmanship is being open and honest. If you feel like there is some trickery, call the person on it, or flag down one of the game judges to get a ruling. Great report!
