๐Ÿ“˜ FAQ

โ“ Rules Question: New British Book

Q: Just a quick rules question โ€“ since the event is on the 3rd and the new British book is out on the 31st officially, are we playing the old or new rules, or are both allowed?

A: Weโ€™ll be sticking with the current (old) British book for this event, just to keep things consistent for everyone. The new oneโ€™s fair game for future events once folks have had a chance to digest it!
