Yep, tickets went on sale for the TOS this morning and are already selling fast. There are only 46 in the original allocation and about 20 of those have already gone for sure.

Where did you find out what the initial allocation is?

Seriously tempted. Will have to look at how to get there from London, and sleeping arrangements though.

Looks like a lot of fun. There's a dwarven bar. What can possibly go wrong?

We all need to communicate and work out where is best for ALL of us to stay! A place with a bar so we can talk toy soldiers all night and have drinks together, rather than needing to get back to different hotels.

Nottingham people, get suggesting!

Great response from the Hobbit community- thank you all so much. Now, there's only 8 tickets left to sell before we have the first sell out Hobbit event ever and the first SBG sellout in over 8 years. If you haven't got yours yet, go get it now, for pity's sake! Nick

Fantastic stuff - we really couldn't have sent them a stronger message that there's a passionate SBG scene out there. Here's hoping they sell the remaining 8 nice and quickly and expand the capacity!

Got my ticket, never been to a tournament of any kind before. There's not many people round my way playing SBG so it's hard to get games and I thought this way I can get some guaranteed games in.

Looking forwards to getting beaten many times, but enjoying it none the less! Should be up Friday at some point, so hopefully get a practice game in beforehand!

I too have never been to a hobbit event before and am looking forward to meeting up with other players.
Not as many as I would like in my neck of the woods either.
I'm travelling up on Friday evening and all booked in to the travel lodge.

Will be good to meet you all

Thermo · **Posted:** Mon Mar 10, 2014 7:41 pm

Look forward to meeting you all there

What's everyone's staying over plans? Hotel with a late night bar and good company required!

Hi everyone, I was wondering if it's possible to get there from France or is it for England only ? With my brother and a friend we were curious and hoping so.

SouthernDunedain · **Posted:** Mon Mar 10, 2014 8:31 pm

There are no restrictions on who can come

so come on over. I guess it'd be easiest to fly to nottingham airport and get public transport to the hotel and then WHW.

Wow, this event is really warming up. I've got myself booked at a travel lodge, as the premier inn was too expensive (Lenny Henry is such a liar...lol).

Hi Manandar, everyone is welcome to attend, tickets are selling very fast though so its best to track them down sooner rather than later.

I am really looking forward to this, hell I look forward to all lotr tourneys now that there are soooo many happening! The ability to play LOTR AGAIN!!!!!

MoriaMadness · **Posted:** Tue Mar 11, 2014 7:07 pm

My first ever singles event at WHW, very excited to get beaten and not have a partner to blame! :-D

Death and glory, here I come!

Constantine · **Posted:** Fri Mar 14, 2014 10:24 am

The tickets are sold out!! Will they expand the allocation?

Dr Grant · **Joined:** Fri Aug 03, 2012 1:50 pm **Posts:** 1339

14 more have just been made available! BUY BUY BUY!

Original allocation - 46 - sold out after 3 days
2nd allocation - 12 - sold out after 5 days
14 more on sale today!

What an awesome response from the community, 4 more tickets sold and we'll surpass last year's TOS attendance, if these all sell we'll have a mighty 72 players - amazing stuff!

Thermo · **Posted:** Sat Mar 15, 2014 10:45 am

Yup, if the event grows in attendance, then it's a clear sign that the hobby is waxing again! Your hobbit hobby needs you people!

Show GW that this can be a profitable and well supported system that they should maintain for years and years to come!
