Sorry to hear that- hope to see you both soon!

After this summer (and after I take the bar exam), we'll need to get together again for another board game day!

[OEAO]

Maps are up, and points were bumped by 5 a few weeks ago by request (it'll let a few more armies fit a bit better). Hope to see you next Saturday!

I'll be bringing & using my only Otonashi. Because of this you can borrow & use it as long as we order our corresponding armies different numbers (and I receive my fav figure back).

[itsbuzzi]

Good turnout. Fun was had by all.

[OEAO]

Stay tuned for details on the next one! The MCS 22-23 Season Championship will be taking place in September!

And congratulations to Dragon Ruler for winning the 22-23 Regular Season title with a dominant 18-3 record!

[OEAO]

Attention New England friends:

My dad and I are happy to be running a smaller, cheaper HeroScape convention in New Jersey! Hope to see some of you there!

THIS MONTH’S DETAILS:

Season I, Event 6: CHAMPIONSHIP
Saturday October 7, 2023
12:30 Setup
1:00 PM - ~6:00 PM (4 Rounds, unless there are 17+ players)

SIGN UP HERE: https://heroscape.org/tournament/?Tournament=138

Cost: $15 (100% of admission cost will be used to purchase gift certificates to the store that will be prized out to the top X players, depending on attendance)

Format: Preset Draft Pools
Delta Pricing: NO
VC: NO
Marvel: NO

This month, we will be crowning the MCS Season I Champion! Congratulations to Dragon Ruler for winning the regular season title.

Note that the cost this month is $15; this will all go into prize support (both gift cards like normal and a trophy for both the regular season champion and the winner of the Championship).

We will be using the Preset Draft Pools that we used at the ScapeCon III World Championship.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO BRING ANY FIGURES! Just bring dice, order markers, and wound dice/markers like normal.

Each round, you will be paired up with one opponent. You will both draft an army from one of the below pools (as assigned that round). For example, if you are using the Jandar pool, and your opponent drafts Concan, you will not be able to draft Concan. Similarly, if you draft 1 squad of Phantom Knights, your opponent would only be able to draft 1 squad of Phantom Knights.


The Draft works as follows:
Dice off. High roll drafts first.
Draft in a 1-2-2-2-2 etc. pattern. (IE Player A drafts 1 card; Player B drafts 2 cards; Player A drafts 2 cards; etc.)
Each copy of a common card is a separate pick.
Armies are not placed until all units have been drafted.
Once you are out of points, you may not draft any more cards (but you may continue to draft up to the point limit even if the extra card(s) would put you over the figure limit).

Running the draft format from Worlds at a local tournament is a pretty neat idea...

We might have to try this at a MARS event soon 👀

Yeah, even though we used it for the Championship and are fairly skill-testing, they're just a ton of fun!

[Shurrig]

Was this event planned to be on the same day as the Renegade Heroscape panel on purpose? I bet a watch party would be fun!
