[Matthias Maccabeus]

Date: Nov 11th, 2023.

Location:
Garenex’s Heroscape Garage of Power
Council Bluffs, IA
PM @Garenex for directions


Start time:
9:30 check in
10:00 am start time
Lunch - Mrs. Garenex is taking care of us all

Format:
Stack the Tax (Restricted List)
490 points total
20 figures
55 minute rounds
No customs/Marvel.

Stack the Tax - For every (same) common or uncommon card that you use in addition to your first (which is tax free) you have to pay a tax to add that card. The tax is +20 points per card for the 2nd card, +40 points per card for the 3rd card, +80 points per card for the 4th card. For example Knights of Weston x 1 = 70. Knights of Weston x 2 = 70 + tax (20) = 90 x 2 = 180. Knights of Weston x 3 = 70 + tax (40) = 110 x 3 = 330, etc.

For the restricted list you can't have more than one of the following cards / units in your army. For example if you have 3 squads of 4th Mass (remember that would cost you 330 points) you cannot also have Krav Agents because that would be 2 things from the restricted list. If the card is a common card on the restricted list, you are allowed to have multiple copies of them.

The restricted list is as follows:
Deathreavers
4th Massachusetts Line
10th Regiment of Foot
Blastatrons
Krav Maga Agents
Marro Warriors
Raelin (1.0)
Sir Gilbert
Marcus Decimus Gallus

I plan to be there, possibly bringing Julie.

[Sir Heroscape]

Are you planning on running pairings etc through Heroscape.org? or at least the Tournament Director software?

[Matthias Maccabeus]

No. Not needed.

[Garenex]

Put me down for a tentative plus 3.

[Garenex]

Also, my wife will bring something TBD for lunch again. I'll post once she decides so people can make other plans if necessary.

[Sir Heroscape]

I was planning on coming with a +1 but unfortunately I had some other things come up that will impede my ability to attend. I was looking forward to this as I felt pretty confident about my army. I'll be curious to see the armies/standing posted after the event.

[Matthias Maccabeus]

I've updated the map pool.

I will also be bringing something (Heroscape related) to show off and demo to the attendees. It's a project that a few of us have been working on. I'm hoping to get some feedback from you guys about it there.

[Shurrig]

Hey, thanks for including Trodden Path! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it

Sorry you can't make it! I'm also very curious to see what the armies end up being. I've done some building, but haven't solidified anything yet.

Once it's over, you should post what your army was going to be.

[Garenex]

Main thing for lunch will be chili and sides (cheese, crackers and sour cream). People can feel free to add anything to get it, if they want.

We have a change of location for this Saturday. We will be playing at Garenex’s Heroscape Garage of Power. PM Garenex if you need the address.

I do believe I or Garenex have contacted everyone on the list. We’ve had a few people drop last minute so we’re changing to a smaller venue. Should still be a great time!
