Board Game Tournaments – Sharing our favourite board game tournament format. Tabletop Bellhop Gaming Podcast Episode 136

Board Game Tournaments.

We discuss and give details about what we think is the best board game tournament format, the Candian Board Game Blitz. This is followed by a couple of previews, first up Sean’s giving us the rundown on Blood Bowl III a new digital version of the Games Workshop fantasy football game, then I’ve got a review of a prototype copy of Battle of GOG that was lent to us. We finish up with a week in review that includes more GOG and Blood Bowl and a digital game of Aventuria.

—Ask The Bellhop—

Tonight we’ve got a question from Tabletop Bellhop patron Courtney Jackson who asks:

“I have a small group of about 10 or 12 that game with us weekly. We are considering hosting a small boardgame tournament and are wondering,
1. How to choose the game/games for the tournament?
2. How to do the draw so the same people aren’t sitting at the same table the whole time?
3. Would it be better to.do a league style tournament where everyone meets weekly or bi-weekly and earn points over the course of several meets?”
