O-H-I-O NHSD 2013 Columbus
 
NHSD Columbus, Ohio - 11/2/13




Since I'm located in Cincinnati, and Wookie is located in Dayton, we'll be organizing all of this remotely and may need a little extra help setting up on the day of the event. The advantage to this situation, like NHSD Columbus in the past, is that we hope to continue the "whole state and beyond coming together" vibe.
Date: Saturday, November 2, 2013

Time: 10:00ish AM to 5ish PM

10:00-11:30 - Setup/Registration. We are driving in from out of town to set this up, so we can't set things up the night before or show up much earlier. We would appreciate extra hands to set up boards in the morning. The more hands, the more likely we can start on time!

11:30-4:30 Play

4:30-5:30 Prizes/ clean up

Location:
Columbus Area Boardgaming Society
670 Lakeview Blvd Suite E
Worthington, OH 43085

Google Map to Location

This is the same location as the last three years.

Format:
4 round swiss with one game final, if necessary. Players bring four "booster packs" worth of figures and cards: a "booster pack" equals the exact figures sold in a Heroscape booster (Example: one squad of 10th Regiment of Foot + one squad of Wolves of Badru = one "booster pack.") Rotv or Sotm figures =3 "booster packs" each, meaning if you bring a set of those figures, you'll only bring 1 more "booster pack" worth of figures along with it. Large Hero packs or BftU = 2 "booster packs" worth of figures. Single squads such as Fyorlag Spiders count as 1/2 of a "booster pack." If you are not bringing a set of master set figures, one of your booster packs must consist of unique heroes.

These four packs will be pooled with your opponent's four packs creating an eight pack pool from which to draft. At least one pack must have uniques, but no duplication of unique pack is permitted.

Tournament is played in one hour rounds. The player who rolls highest drafts first and selects one card from the combined pool of cards. After the first selection, players alternate, drafting 2 cards per drafting turn. Players place units in their start zones as they draft them.

465 points, full card scoring

C3V and SoV Figures WILL be allowed, although Marvel will not.
Rational:
Spoiler Alert!

Maps: Wookie will be organizing the maps-- see the second post in this thread.

Glyphs:
Power Glyphs:
TBA


Treasure Glyphs:
TBA


Entry fee/Prizes: There is no entry fee; however, Wookie is paying a fee to rent the space, so if you are inclined you could donate $5 or so to offset that cost. He and I will also provide some extra prizes for the prize table. If you also provide a prize for the prize table, you can pick out one at the end. The top player will pick from the prize table first, etc. Prizes can be anything...Heroscape related, other games, or even a gift certificate to somewhere. The venue is in an office park, and there are no retail stores within walking distance. If you want to contribute a prize, please make sure you bring one with you.

Need Extra Figures? Between the two of us, we have multiples of nearly everything. Let me know what you need (PM me so everyone doesn't know what you're bringing!), and if it is available we'll be happy to bring it for you to use!

Hosey and I are possible for this. All depends on the work schedule. But if I don't have to work, we should be there.

Nirek October 14th, 2013 10:13 AM

Re: O-H-I-O NHSD 2013 Columbus
 
I am planning on attending and will hopefully be bringing a sizable crew.

Thanks for organizing again, guys!

4 pack draft - Nice, as I love the pooled draft format and the 3-pack draft was one of my favorite ones! Right now I am a maybe. I have sold most of my stuff but to have a master set 1 and a couple sets of wave one plus some misc heroes and squads, and I can always borrow.
Q: Are flag bearers EACH 1/2 a pack or are they all combines one "booster"? I played the 3-pack at Gencon a couple years back and brought all the flagbearers and 2 packs of Microcorp/MacDirks and it was a really fun draft (although all of them got lost/stolen :(). I look forward to this if I can go.

See Draft Tournament - Options and Tips for TDs for help on running as well as preparing as a player.

One additional idea from this thread that I would like to see at this tournament if possible:
Quote:

•Additional units to draft pool at each map - For each game at a given map, add terrain dependent units, such as units with lava resistance on lava maps, cold healing/snow strength on snow maps, etc; or melee units on melee friendly maps and flying figures on maps with perches, etc. Helps makes some less used units get used (Obsidian guards are A units on Ember Canyon Road). After each game, if a map dependent unit is drafted, return it to that map to be drafted by the next players.

I may be able to attend, but I won't know for sure much before that week.

It's good to hear from you all & hope to see you.

I plan on listing made up packs that have some relevance to each other. The flag bearers, Skahan, Woo & SOVs will have a home.

Let me confer with Johnny about the terrain specific units designated for certain maps Lefton4ya.

I'm cool with it! Add 'em to the boards you'd like.

Sounds like fun, but we are now "probably nots" for this. :( Hosey is supposed to have basketball practice that day. Maybe next year. :)

Re: O-H-I-O NHSD 2013 Columbus
 
Consider me a "possibly" I'll need to check out my work schedule to see if I'll be able to make it.

Re: O-H-I-O NHSD 2013 Columbus
 
Still a maybe. if you need a list of suggestions for the additional units to draft pool at each map, see the map section of KC's 3rd Annual Birthday Bash in Warren, OH (that was canceled) or Terrain in Heroscape...Visually

It is a definite Father Of Julian and StormShadow will be in attendance.
