NHSD: SoCal Slaughter! 2011
 
Hello all diehard 'scapers,
Saturday, 10-15-2011, again at my apartment's rec. room at
14960 Sherman Way, Olive Tree Apartments, Van Nuys, 91405.
Hours are 8AM - 11PM. I was told that if necessary we may enter before 8AM.
I have enough tables/chairs for 14 games, so if more than 28 contestants sign-up we'll need more equipment.
Anyone wanting to stay for more gaming after the tournament is more than welcome!
There is a small kitchen for food prep. and storage.
There is a boys' restroom and a girls' restroom.
If you want alcohol, I suggest you wait until after the tournament and bring your own supply.
There is a good deal of parking (do not use the church parking @ Kester intersection) but try and carpool because there is a lot of competition for those spots. I'll place my car in such a way to hold down 2 spots for when needed and my space inside the complex will be assigned to the documentary crew. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT WAIVERS WILL NEED TO BE SIGNED BY THOSE WILLING TO PARTICIPATE IN THE DOCUMENTARY AND THAT THOSE WISHING NOT TO PARTICIPATE SHOULD TRY AND KEEP THEMSELVES ON THE SECOND STORY OF THE CLUBHOUSE.THANK FOR YOUR COOPERATION.

Confirmed Details:
Location: warriorneedsfoodbadly's clubhouse in Van Nuys (map)
Date: Saturday, 10/15
Time: 10:00 AM check-in, 11:00 AM begin play, tournament until 4:00 PM or 5:00 PM (no breaks for food, so bring lunch/snacks!), free play afterwards, rumors of beer and pizza later in the evening :smile:

Rules:
Format: swiss/simple, either 5 matches or 6 if more than 32 people, timed matches (see below), partial scoring, dual army play (see below)
Cost: $5 per contestant for prizes and rental of space
Armies: 520pts, 24 spaces

Power Glyphs/Treasure Glyphs:
Random Treasure Glyph pool:

Heroic Rune (+1 attack)
Brooch of Shielding (disengage)
Scarab of invunerability(temp)
Potion of Healing (temp)

Treasure Glyph Traps:
• If you roll a 1–5, you set off the trap. Leave the Treasure Glyph symbol-side
up, roll a battle die - a skull results in unblockable wound on attempting Hero.
• If you roll a 6 or higher, you did not set off the trap, and the figure that
landed on the Treasure Glyph now picks up the Treasure Glyph.


Random Power Glyph pool:

Glyph of Wannok (Wound)
Glyph of Valda (Move +2)
Glyph of Dagmar (Initiative +8 )

Assuming Hextr1p plays his usual chauffeur role, I'm in. ;)

King of the Marro August 22nd, 2011 11:44 PM

Re: NHSD: SoCal Slaughter! 2011
 
I will most likely be able to make it. Finally can drive, so no worries about that. I should also have my Summoner Wars stuff if anybody else wants to bring theirs or try the game out.

Re: NHSD: SoCal Slaughter! 2011
 
For now count me and the pop as in.

And as for format, we could stay fairly "standard" while still changing it up and adding a social element this way: For each game you are randomly assigned both an opponent and a teammate. We could duck the points a bit to 400 or so. That could be interesting without severely changing the format or inhibiting younger players.

Re: NHSD: SoCal Slaughter! 2011
 
I'm in. I'm also 99% sure that GamerHusband and Everybody Loves Raelin will be in as well. Possibly 1 or 2 more.

King of the Marro - I don't own any Summoner Wars stuff, but would like to see what it's all about.

Hivelord - for each game you will be assigned a teammate? So like 2 v 2 games?? Not really picking up what you're puttin down. :P

Edit* As for format, I like the swiss format we have used in the past few years.

Yep. Exactly that. It can still be relatively swiss-ish but adds a new layer.

Re: NHSD: SoCal Slaughter! 2011
 
I am hoping I can make it this year, but coaching duties may take precedence. Will play it by ear. Thanks for putting it together, G.

Leotheanimal87 August 23rd, 2011 04:45 PM

Re: NHSD: SoCal Slaughter! 2011
 
You can count me and my brother Andy in. We may bring 2 friends this year maybe. As far as formatting goes I'm down with anything. Marvel anyone? LOL

GamerHusband August 23rd, 2011 07:02 PM

Re: NHSD: SoCal Slaughter! 2011
 
Count me in again this year.

Our usual carpool? Please say yes! Please say yes! :p

Everybody Loves Raelin August 24th, 2011 07:14 PM

Re: NHSD: SoCal Slaughter! 2011
 
Count me in!!!

As for games to play, I would prefer a straight up tournament,

no changes to what we've already done please.

I do like the restriction rule to see how creative people can get

with their armies. Tired of playing against the same popular/powerful heroes.

Let's do something that we love that's just slightly refreshing!!!
