Thank you Mordakai and thank you the rest of the Council Of Elrond! Once more from the top! I’m happy and honored to accept the challenge of hosting Worlds 2023 for MECCG in Sacramento, California of the United State of America from 10th to 13th of November, 2023 (Veteran’s Day weekend in the USA) T...

Hello Everyone, I have more news! There and Back Cafe has just announced the First Place Prize for the winner of the There and Back Again 2023 Tournament. It is a replica of the Key to Bag End from The Hobbit movie trilogy! A very fun and thematic prize indeed! If you haven't registered yet, you sti...

Wow, I haven't seen those photos in a long time! Thanks for sharing them. I'm told Ian wants a rematch in November and, frankly, I'm terrified!

Awesome, Theo and nice webpage!

Hey Fair Folk of Middle Earth, Just flew in from Denver and my arms are tired (drum drum cymbal). We had a fine moot gathering of 7 folks when all was said and done. Here's a little game report: I was able to bring my Wizards of ME set including the miniatures and we had a table all set up and runni...

Currently looking into whether I can make it to this. No promises, but I am in the middle of putting together Arda and Dark Arda decks that I will bring if I attend. Do you have current lists of the cards in your decks? I've found a few, but every one of them is different. Cool ajtressler! Thanks f...

Answer the Call! Muster for Middle Earth!

Small but important update: The actual playing space will be: There and Back Café. 1020 11th Street (on Friday), and Capitol Event Center at The MAY Building on Saturday and Sunday (next door to the cafe). You can Google both locations for virtual tours which are online. A registration webpage is fo...

Hello Kodi, I agree with some of your opinion. The World Championship is a celebration of MECCG and the best part is meeting other game enthusiasts that share my passion. At its core, this is exactly what There and Back Again tournament will be all about in 2023. It will not matter if people conside...

The Hobbit with Sting sleeves and the Frodo holding the One Ring deck box
Also the Balrog play mat.
I haven't seen Nazgul sleeves yet, but I will get them if they come out.
Great stuff!

I'm happy to run my 5-player game Wizards of ME throughout the day if enough people are interested. It goes a lot faster if two people are active players at the same time (it's not hard to do -- especially with someone like me running the game instead of playing it). I'll try to share an image. Sorr...

Hello everyone, I’m happy to announce a Middle Earth CCG OPEN Tournament for 2023 in the Sacramento, California of the United State of America. 10th to 12th of November, 2023 (Veteran’s Day weekend in the USA) The location will be There and Back Café. 1020 11th Street and Capitol Event Center at The...

Folks, It occurs to me that getting FROM Europe TO the Western United State is just as expensive and difficult as getting TO Europe FROM the Western United States. So maybe we just have a tournament out here in California (or Colorado or Washington) and if you don't want to call it Worlds, then we w...

I may have good news, soon.

Thank you Mordakai, for issuing the call. I, for one, am answering. I've made it my goal to get something happening again in the Western United States. For years prior to the pandemic we had a small community across the state that would usually gather at gaming conventions in Los Angeles and Sacrame...
