Joyride Entertainment has announced that retailers have until October 7 to register to hold a Blood & Water Pre-Release Weekend Event on October 28-30, just prior to the November 9 release of the first expansion for the Full Metal Alchemist Trading Card Game.  The Pre-Release Tournaments will be the only place that players can obtain the exclusive Blood & Water promo card -- a very powerful card that showcases one of the new mechanics in the set by allowing a player to spend one experience to draw three cards.

The Blood & Water expansion is a major addition to the FMA CCG--it adds 110 cards and includes a full parallel foil set, chase cards printed on clear plastic, two new theme decks, new leaders and new mechanics.  Retailers who want to hold a Pre-Release event for Blood & Water are urged to contact Joyride Entertainment as soon as possible since only a limited number of stores will be granted Pre-Release Tournaments.
