Online 'Scape Inaugural Season - Congrats to Kinseth

[bamoguy]

Hello All!

After doing some research I have found that there has been talk buzzing throughout the history of the site about the possibility of Heroscape online. I have found that Griffin's system of HeroSkype seems to work the best (link below to the thread).

So here it is, Heroscape's Very First ONLINE Tournament!

This will be a 16 person tournament with four rounds of swiss.

Armies will consist of 520 points of Classic, C3V, and SoV pieces. NO MARVEL and NO C3G.

The tournament will use Griffin's HeroSkype rules (link below to the thread).

The tournament will start shortly after 16 people have signed up. Please sign up in this thread, and then send me a PM by the time the tournament starts of the army you will be using. Also, when signing up please add how you are available to play, PM, Skype, phone, AliasQTip's Heroscape Wesbite Chat (link below, thanks Izner!), ect. so I can put it next to your name. This does not mean give me your number or username or anything, that information can stay between you and the opponent for a certain round, just which forms work for you.

Each player will be randomly assigned an opponent and a HeroSkype map to play on. Players will have one week to contact eachother, decide how to play, (skype, IM, phone, ect.) and complete their game. Players will then report back, in this thread, who won and who lost. If games will not be finished by the end of the Round, as a last resort, players if they like may instead of taking the losses, have their game go to points. If using this method fractional scoring will be in place for all units. A squad with 4 units and 100 points with 2 dead will count as 50 points. A hero with 4 lives worth 200 points with 1 wound would be worth 150 points.

Example Post:
Bamoguy vs. Scaper123
Won: Bamoguy
Lost: Scaper123
Game Name: A1B2C3D4E5F6G7H8I9

In the event that players do not complete their game by the end date of that round they will both recieve a loss. If there are specific issues please PM me and we can possibly figure out an alternative, for certain cases only.

Note: You do not necessarily have to have the other person's army, if you have pieces that you and your opponent agree will work as proxies that is fine. Also, for maps, if you for example don't have VW you could proxy other pieces not being used in that map as lava and just make that clear to your opponent. I don't want to discourage players just because they don't have the pieces.

Also, if you are under 18 PLEASE check with your parents before giving out information for this tournament.

Summary:
520 points
16 players
4 round swiss
Players have one week to complete game

And finally, a big thanks to Griffin for putting his HeroSkype system out there!
