    Bayou Wars XVIII is hosting the final tournament of the 2009-2010 Gulf South Championship at the Radisson Hotel, 2150 Veterans Blvd, Kenner, LA 70062. This location is the hotel we used last year. It is not the old Quality Inn located in Metairie that has previously hosted Bayou Wars.

    Costs for the Bayou Wars convention and FOG Tournament is $35.00.
    Room rates are $79.00 per night. Please be aware that a number of rooms are already blocked for various airline accounts, so do not wait until June to make your reservations.

    You must call the local number (504) 467-3111 and mention Bayou Wars to get this rate. If you call the 800 number for the Radisson, you will not get this rate.

    Also, the following will be offered for anyone who wants to play different armies during the tournament.

    If you have lost (not losing draws, your army must have given the 5 bonus points to your opponent) at least two games with your initial army, you can switch to another army. Thereafter, you can use a different army in any round. You must make this decision before the draw is completed for the upcoming round.

    If you plan on using multiple armies, all army lists must be submitted for list checking. If any players who are traveling via air and are worried about traveling with multiple armies, but want to use an additional army, please let me know, as I can provide a couple of options.
