”LinCon, the most wretched hive of scum and villainy…”

Inte alls! Linköpings egen SWU-community bjuder nämligen in till en tävling i det fantastiska kortspelet Star Wars Unlimited! Tävlingen arrangeras av Axel P och Tomas L, i samarbete med butiken Seriebörsen, som förstås finns på plats på LinCon!

LinCon Masters går av stapeln för tredje året i rad och det vill du inte missa! Formatet är premier, vilket innebär att man tar med sin prekonstruerade lek och sedan spelar matcher mot andra deltagare.

Tävlingen räknas som ett casual event, där vi t ex löser ev. regelfrågor tillsammans. Vi spelar s.k. swissrundor följt av en topcut. Max antal deltagare är 32st.
Notera att tävlingens sluttid är ungefärlig!

Betalning till eventet sker strax innan, i Seriebörsens butik. Sedan sker tävlingen i sal R36. Priset är 100 SEK och vissa priser finns att vinna om det går bra!

Du behöver ha köpt inträde till LinCon för att delta.
För att anmäla sig till tävlingen registrerar man sig till eventet på melee.gg:

Vi ses i en galax långt, långt borta!

”LinCon, the most wretched hive of scum and villainy…”

Inte alls! Linköpings egen SWU-community bjuder nämligen in till en tävling i det fantastiska kortspelet Star Wars Unlimited! Tävlingen arrangeras av Axel P och Tomas L, i samarbete med butiken Seriebörsen, som förstås finns på plats på LinCon!

Formatet är ”Draft”, vilket innebär att man köper tre stycken boosterpack med kort och deltar i en draft, där man väljer ett kort i taget och skickar vidare resten till de andra spelarna tills alla har nog för att bygga en lek!

Sedan spelar man matcher mot andra deltagare. Detta format är ett väldigt uppskattat och pulshöjande sätt att spela SWU på!

Tävlingen räknas som ett casual event, där vi t ex löser ev. regelfrågor tillsammans. Efter draften spelar vi s.k. swissrundor utan top-cut. Max antal deltagare är 32st.
Notera att tävlingens sluttid är ungefärlig!

Betalning till eventet sker strax innan, i Seriebörsens butik. Sedan sker tävlingen i sal R36. Priset är 200 SEK. Du behåller givetvis dina draftade kort och det finns vissa priser att vinna om det går bra!

Formatet är ”Sealed”, vilket innebär att man köper sex stycken boosterpack med kort, bygger en lek utifrån det och sedan spelar matcher mot andra deltagare. Detta format är ett utmärkt sätt att prova på spelet om man är nyfiken och det finns folk på plats att fråga om hjälp!

Perilous Pond &  Bushido Duels

Try a quick game of Perilous Pond or Bushido Duels!

Jump in and roll some dice in this fun and tactical action programming game set in an ever-changing pond. Life isn't easy for a small frog and every turn is a new puzzle for you to solve. Use your available actions like catch or lure fireflies, push opponents, walk, jump, and manipulate the water lilies of the pond. Fight for position and food in this small box game with excellent table presence. A game takes about 15 min per player.

Bushido duels is a fast, fun and action-packed card game where the players try to out-think each other, act unpredictably and have faith that their risks will reap rewards. The game is designed by Frozen Maze Games and illustrated by the talented Emily Ryan. A duel takes about 10-15 minutes

Both games are suitable for young and old alike.

Feel free to drop by and try them out, no pre-registration is required. We also have the games for sale, including a convention-exclusive expansion for Perilous Pond.

Sponsored by Alphaspel!

German game designer and mathematician Reiner Knizia's classic High Society from 1995 is constantly being reissued in beautiful new editions. We are organizing a friendly tournament in this simple but extremely ingenious card game, which is not very long.

No prior knowledge is required: all participants can play a trial round before playing their first real match. We hope to arrange sponsorship in the form of nice prizes.

The gamestore Random Nerd from Norrköping moves to LinCon and are bringing an assortment of products from TCG´s, Boardgames, gaming accessories and 3D-printed items from their store.

There will also be space for playing TCG´s in the room and we will host events and learn-to-play related to these games.

Sorcery Sweden logotyp

Sorcery Sweden is a national non-profit association based in Linköping, working for the community surrounding the collectible card game Sorcery: Contested Realm. The association organizes tournaments, learn-to-play events, and aims to be a support and connection point for players, organizers, and stores across the country. We also wish to help develop the culture and the social aspect surrounding playing and collecting. Art is an important part for many of the players. In addition to the cards themselves, they collect prints, alters, artist proofs, and originals. We work to ensure that artists and players have arenas and forums where they can meet.

In 2024 and 2025, the gaming association Doozy of a Day Association organized Sorcery: Contested Realm tournaments and learn-to-play sessions at LinCon. Sorcery Sweden has now taken over responsibility for these events. Our ambition is for the gathering at LinCon to become the most important event for the Swedish Sorcery community.

In our room we will have the following activities:

Both a sealed and constructed tournament for up to 32 players.

Demo and learn-to-play sessions for those who are curious.

Casual drop-in games for those who already play.

A meet-and-greet with Sorcery artists Elwira Pawlikowska and Mattias Frisk.

The gamestore Random Nerd hosts the TCG-room where all visitors are welcome to sit down and play all types of TCG´s.

There will be drafts and minor tournaments as well as learn-to-play events during the convention.

No matter if you are playing the more known games like Lorcana, Magic, Pokemon, Riftbound, Digimon or some lesser known or even some classic out-of-print TCG, this is where you belong!

Come play the cooperative deck-building board game Blockminers! Multiple setups will be available so you can play with your friends. The game will also be for sale.

In Blockminers, you play as a group of hackers in a dystopian cyberpunk future, and your goal is to infiltrate the bank CapitAll. If you run out of money to pay the rent, you lose.

GNOMAGEDDON gif (om hemsidan stöder det)

We have created our first board game GNOMAGEDDON. Where the player with the most gnomes and the best garden wins, just like in real life.

GNOMAGEDDON is already the most played game among gnomes, and is now coming to the big folk. GNOMAGEDDON is a chaotic card game about creating combos and strategies, only to watch them crumble and be destroyed by your “friends”. Use your loyal gnomes to build the strongest garden. But with every addition to your garden, doomsday creeps closer.

GNOMAGEDDON. IS. COMING.

Do you have what it takes to survive? The only things standing in your way are the other players, morality, and bad luck.

-- GNOMAGEDDON TOURNAMENT --

Sign up for the GNOMAGEDDON Tournament for a chance to win the game.
- Maximum 32 spots
- 4 players per table (you may bring your friends)
- The winner of each table advances to the final table
- 2 final tables and 2 lucky winners who each receive their own copy of the game, plus the eternal honor and pride only a gnome can have
- The full tournament takes about 2–3 hours, 1 hour if you are eliminated in the first round.
