Queen's Gambit inspired scenario

This weekend I am hosting an annual Heroscape event (my birthday celebration). It will be about 12-14 people probably. My plan is to split into two teams, and run 3 boards. So each team will have representatives at each table.

I will give each side a huge pool of themed figures from which to build fixed point armies. So for example one side might be all Marro and the other Soulburg/Agent themed - I have a *lot* of figures.

With all that in mind, here is a link to a google doc outlining the scenario. I would love any input/thoughts/concerns etc. Also, I thought my fellow HS nerds might just enjoy this.

As the subject says this was inspired by Queens Gambit (the board game). Basically I wanted 3 boards where each board impacts the other boards.

I have created a reputation with my family for my HS events. Each time I find myself trying to one up myself. This year I have a lot of 3d printed terrain and the campaign attached here.

Well met!

Inspiring! Looks very Star Warsish. Relatively complex. 12-15 people! Curious to hear how it goes. Basic idea of linking maps with transporters is an oldy but goody. I’ve been having trouble choosing among Flash 19’s awesome maps. Now I can pick 2-3 (they’re small) and place transporters on them. . . .

Basically my brothers and a ton of kids (old kids now) - its a lot of fun. It is always a challenge creating scenarios that support that many people and yet move along reasonably. One huge game with 14 players is terribly slow and painful. But I love the idea that the games are all connected. And the notion of one of the games being the timer for all the games excites me. I love that it simply can not slog on forever.

And are you a 4th degree black belt? I assume that is you in the photo. I am prepping to test for 1st degree hopefully in a couple of months.

Does that make you a Master now?

I am in Tae Kwon Do. Been at it about 4 years now and I think the next black belt test is in February...I hope to be ready.

For my first degree test I have to demonstrate 9 forms (Taegeuk forms if your familiar), 30 grappling and self defense techniques, lots of line drills with more difficult combos (double tornado kicks in place is what I fear most on this part - yikes), and then a verbal part which we do a few days before the test.

Its interesting, where I go there is no sparring for testing until like 2nd degree black belt. I always wondered why that was the case. I wish it was part of it.
