What is The Road To The World Series of Board Games?
Beginning in February, Empire will be holding a series of tournaments each Wednesday night.
Each tournament will be one of the 16 games to be played during the World Series of Board Gaming.

If the winner has already qualified for the Final Championship day, the highest placing competitor who as not qualified yet will qualify.
Winners of multiple events can receive a "home-field advantage" in the semi-finals round!
