Games N Friends
1755 Boston Road, Springfield, MA 01129

Welcome to the (newly-rebranded) Mass Championship Series!

Hosted by OEAO and Chris Perkins at the wonderful Games N Friends, the MCS is a friendly tournament series that anyone can attend! Each season will run (roughly) from fall through the next summer, culminating in a final championship. We will crown the champion of Season I at our inaugural MCS Season I Championship on October 7th, 2023!

We will also crown the regular season champion based on overall record for all events in the season prior to the Championship itself. Players who have played in at least 3 events that season are eligible to win the regular season champion title.

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).
