This is a ticket to participate in the Swedish Championship in Terraforming Mars 2024.

The Swedish Championship is held at the FryxGames headquarters in Karlstad, Sweden, at Saturday December 7th, from 08:30 to 23:30.

– A place in the tournament, with 3 guaranteed qualifying matches to play

– 1 large hamburger or 2 hot dogs

Tournament Rules:

All players play 3 qualifying games, each game with 4 players (or 3 players if uneven number of players).

Winning a game gives 4 tournament points (tp), other players get 3 tp / 2 tp / 1 tp respectively (or 4 to / 2 tp / 1 tp in a 3 player game).

Players also receive 0.1 tp for each milestone and award claimed in each qualifying game.

In qualifying games 2 and 3, you will face opponents with tp close to yours.

After the qualifying games, the 4 players with the highest tp get to play the final (or 5 players if 2 players are tied for 4th place).

All games will be played with drafting rules.

No promo cards will be used for this tournament.

There will be a time limit which we hope will not be enforced. When the time limit is reached, players finish the current generation, which results in end game scoring even if not all parameters are maxed out. During this end game scoring, players take turns doing 1 action each to place their final greeneries and increasing temperature with remaining heat, gaining any Terraform Rating is left on the board. Because of the Time Limit, players may not intentionally stall the game, and suspicions of stalling will results in warnings and eventually a deduction of Terraform Rating for that player. To avoid stalling, please think through your actions before your turn comes and make play as smooth as possible for everyone.

We also expect players to help each other remember effects that trigger, even for other players, to avoid having to backtrack later.
