Re: Colorado Events: Past Present and Future

We are discussing an NHSD event on the first weekend in October via other channels. If anyone here wants to weigh in on Saturday afternoon vs. Sunday afternoon, feel free to do so.

Re: Colorado Events: Past Present and Future

We should use map submissions from this contest.

Gives us something new to work with.
And also supports my shameless self indulgence.

Re: Colorado Events: Past Present and Future

I'm not planning on rebuilding maps between now and then, but you guys should feel free to bring 'em. I will probably build both of my own entries once I make them.

Re: Colorado Events: Past Present and Future

Per discussion elsewhere: Sunday, October 2nd, 2 or 3pm at Enchanted Grounds in Littleton. Let's talk format.

Do we want to include AotP again, maybe with some mixed startzone maps and a few tweaks to our integration rules? Or save that for after NHSD?

Re: Colorado Events: Past Present and Future

No AotP please. It blows. Other than that I'm cool with whatever pretty much. I always enjoy pick your poisons and take two formats since we can use lots of armies in one day. I would also enjoy a draft but that usually takes a long time.

I think we can make AotP work for us, but let's save it for another event.

As for this event, let's stick with something relatively fast-paced. I liked the Rolling Rumble we did, although it will work better with more players. You folks want to try that again, or do the more traditional Swiss style?

I like Take 2 + Alternating Pick Your Poison.

Re: Colorado Events: Past Present and Future

Is this event going to be mixed with planeswalkers again? I'm not at all familiar with it. I'm up for learning new stuff tho.

Always rummaging through garage sale bins, hoping that someone is dumping their kid's Heroscape treasures.

Not if Rolando has anything to say about it.

Seriously, I think we're not doing it this time. We will probably try it again after some of us have had more chances to try some variations of the integrated rules.

Other question: C3V and SoV will be allowed, obviously. Do we want to allow HoSS as well? I don't know if anyone would even bring any. I have a few heroes, but no cards for them.

Re: Colorado Events: Past Present and Future

I'd personally prefer no HoSS but I could maybe be convinced. It pushes the meta in a C3G-ish direction.

I'd dig on either a take 2 variant or reverse draft. Have we done reverse draft locally yet?

Here's my explanation from the Gencon event I ran:
Quote:
Originally Posted by dok View Post

The format for each game is kill 'em all, however, before each game there will be a reverse draft:
  • Begin with a dice-off. The winner of the dice-off chooses one of the armies (theirs, or their opponent's) and says they want to play with that army.
  • The loser of the dice-off either agrees to let the dice-off winner play with that army, or removes at least one figure from that army and says they want to play with it.
  • The players go back and forth, removing additional figure(s) from the chosen army each time, until one player passes and lets the other player use it.
  • The player who passes plays the army that was not chosen in the first step (at full strength).
Fine print:
Spoiler Alert!
There are more complex versions where you can put units back in as long as the partial card scoring total is lower than what you started with. I prefer that, but we can keep it simple if you want.

Or, again, bring 2 is fine with me.
