Default Re: FLGS Car Wars Leagues today

SPARK runs a yearly duel circuit and a couple of off-season duels with more wide-ranging rulesets. In the last year or so most of our games have been at the home of one of our members, but in previous years the majority of our events were at games stores.

Some really basic recommendations:
- For your first event (and then every once in a while) run an Amateur Night-style scenario where everyone plays pregen vehicles, either all the same vehicles or ones with similar power. (Not just the same division, but vehicles that have a good shot against each other.) Post flyers for it (if possible) and make sure it's clear that it's for beginners. Have the organizer act as GM, helping people learn the game by teaching the rules.

- When running events where people can bring their own vehicle designs, make sure you design and bring extra vehicles in case someone new would like to join.

- Put together a website and post your rule information and schedule there.
