The Sheffield Slaughter (sometimes known as the Dragon Slayers Bash) is an excellent tournament renowned for its friendly atmosphere, cracking food and the copious amounts of beer entrants consume. Oh, and for its rules system of course, which is always different from the usual run-of-the-mill nonsense you get at WPS and GW tournies. At least, that's what John thinks...
