The 2020 Return to Farpoint Series continues to roll on in April 2020.

Building on the theme of the February event, the card pool for this event will be everything that was legal at the 2004 World Championship: Premiere, Energize, Call to Arms, and Necessary Evil.

This was the year that Worlds was dominated by the infamous (and newly Hall of Fame inducted) Klingon Riker! Interestingly enough, however, that deck didn't end up winning Worlds because of the myriad anti-Klingon Riker decks that emerged. 16 years later, will Riker return to his former glory? Will other players bring other answers? What about Far-Seeing Eyes or Fed Geo Solvers, will they be revisited? Or will a fresh look at an old card poll lead to new innovations and more creative decks? Only one way to find out: get preregistered today!

The event kicks off on April 3rd.

If we get more than 8 people, I'll add a 4th Round.

Just giving this a quick bump since we're two weeks from kickoff. If you weren't around in 2004, I HIGHLY encourage you to give this format a try. It was a great time for the game, even with all of the Klingon Rikers running around! :P

It will be interesting, because if I remember Secret Identity was played differently and a Riker targeted could just get another Riker. Romulan event wall was fun, but that's when Party Atmosphere was non-unique. Looking forward to this!
