VtES Storyline 2008 Announcement

In the rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad newsgroup and the White Wolf forum there's announcement regarding the V:tES Storyline events for 2008.

Here's the full text of Ben Swainbank's (White Wolf's Storyline coordinator) announcement:

The Vampire: the Eternal Struggle Storyline Series will return this summer.

An outlaw gang of anarchs, led by notorious Count Germain, has been traveling from city to city. At each stop along the way, they have flaunted the local authorities, violated the masquerade, and drawn more recruits to their cause.

Following the gang are rumors - rumors that Germain and his followers are chasing something, preparing for the Final Nights. The Camarilla are determined to stop the gang and silence the rumors. Rich rewards have been offered to those who can bring the gang down. Starting in August, Anarchs and Alastors clash in this limited format Storyline League.


The story continues in October at a special Storyline Event at the 2008 North American Championships.

The Noddist scholars of Montreal are the keepers of many relics and many secrets. None are guarded more closely than the Kaymakli Fragment. Some say its ancient text foretells the end of the Kindred. Some say it holds the key to their survival. Some seek to control it. Some seek to keep it hidden. Some seek to destroy it. The fate of the Fragment, and the city itself, will be determined when Kindred travel to Montreal and find themselves in the city of Black Miracles and Lies.


Then, next winter...

Faced with increasing threats from an anarch revolt, the deadly Sabbat, and their own internal strife, the Camarilla's Inner Circle have agreed to appoint a military commander. The new commander will have the mandate to enforce the traditions and maintain discipline, and will be granted broad powers to fulfill this mission. Who among the clans will have the power to seize this exalted position? Who will have the strength to keep it?

In the corridors of power, maneuvering begins. Who will have the honor, the responsibility, and the power to lead the armies of the Camarilla? Prepare for the Rise of the Imperator.

Looks like we are getting a series of three events later this year. Sadly it seems that the second one will only take place at the North American Championship 2008, which will be held in Montreal, Canada.

because i don't like the idea that it is world thing ( storyline) but you can play it only at this date at thsi location.

there is already promo cards for continental so i fear that there will be more and more thing only playable or that you can have only at this kind of tournament.
