Hey all. Not sure if this has been covered yet, but I haven't seen it so I'll post it.
Privateer Press has been an exhibitor every year at PAX, and this year is no exception. They will have several tournaments for their major games (Warmachine, Hordes) at PAX this year. I've quoted this from the original thread on their boards for your convenience.
Alright, folks! PAX is coming to Seattle late this August, Privateer will be there in force and we've got some killer events planned. Not only will PP be hosting the latest incarnation of their 'Tour of Duty' event (which will last throughout the entire PAX weekend) and the oh-so-traditional 500pt 'Working Man's Tourney' Friday night, we will for the first time be hosting an official HARDCORE event on Saturday and the 750pt Warmachine/Hordes Masters Tourney on Sunday.
For those who don't know, each year we have a series of PAX Master's Tourney Qualifying events - one each per store - and the winner of each event gets a free 3-day pass to PAX and is automatically entered into the PAX Master's Tourney on Sunday. This year we've got 12 locations participating - 8 in Washington, 3 in Oregon and 1 in Idaho (Mosie Agogo held that one yesterday, and he took care of promoting that one quite well!).
I imagine more than a few people are interested in knowing where these events will be held at and when, so here ya go!
Sunday, June 17th - 750 WM/H mixed PAX Master's Qualifier @ Fantasy Knights, Albany OR
Saturday, June 23rd - 750 WM/H mixed PAX Master's Qualifier @ Oroboro Games, Redmond WA

In addition to the master tournament, I got some more details from Mr. Smedley via PM. The schedule for PAX was originally posted in PP's No Quarter Magazine. Here's the skinny.
Friday:
-Tour of Duty 'Opening Salvo' (open all day)
-'Working Man's Tourney' WM/H mixed tourney (7pm with registration at 6:30)
Saturday:
-continuation of the Tour of Duty event (open all day)
-Hardcore tourney (11am)
Sunday:
-continuation of the Tour of Duty event (open most of the day)
-Warmachine/Hordes Master's Invitational tournament (invite only, sort of a regionals thing) (11am)
Plus free play, demos and Privateer will be there all weekend.
Moe, can we get this added to the list of non-electronic events at PAX?

Added the times that I was able to get from Smed.
Edit: Got the time for the "working man's tourney"
Also, in case it wasn't clear to anyone in my OP, these are all official Privateer Press sanctioned events. I would guess they will have some nice prizes, as they have in past yeras.
