What?
Euro Quest is a unique blend of tournaments and open gaming.

Why?
Euro Quest will provide a competitive forum for the play of popular "European" style boardgames in a focused, in-depth format not available elsewhere. All tournaments will be run to provide multiple opportunities to compete in the same game with a minimum of three preliminary heats preceeding the elimination rounds.

Tournaments
Tournaments included: 11 different main event tournaments, including Agricola, Power Grid, Princes of Florence, Puerto Rico, Ra, Race for the Galaxy, St. Petersburg, Settlers of Catan, Ticket to Ride Combo, Thurn und Taxis, and the Hot New Game for 2009: Dominion.

Wild Card Event: A unique, free-form event including up to 15 titles. Games included to date for EuroQuest VII in 2009 are: Alhambra, Can't Stop, Caylus, Dominion, Goa, Pillars of the Earth, San Juan, Stone Age, Vegas Showdown, Yspahan, the "comeback" game for 2009, Lost Cities, and three new titles: Le Havre, Roll Through The Ages, Small World, and the Hot New Essen Game, Endeavor.

BPA plaques will be awarded for each event - providing plenty of laurel opportunities for those who want to improve their standings in BPA's annual Caesar competition.

Open Gaming
Dedicated open gaming space will be provided in the main gaming hall during the entire duration of the convention, featuring the Euro Quest Game Library.
