Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
I love the idea of a live video. One problem you might run into will be just how long the game/video could go. What I mean by that, is that online games can be quite convenient...and with that means it's easy to get up and grab some food or run to the bathroom while waiting a turn...but that also extends the game. Not that it's wrong to do that, but I think the players on the other end should have the understanding that the game is live and not to 1) take 10min per move and 2) make sure they schedule it out in a timeframe they will be able to complete the game (ideally within an hour or so). Of course there's no givens...but I could just see it being really weird for a live stream if we were waiting to see a move for like 10min and then the guy chats in saying 1) he fell asleep on accident (I've done that multiple times) or 2) he had something else scheduled and needed to leave etc.
Basically, it's a great idea! Just make sure the players are handily prepared knowing it's a live audience and to treat the game that way (i.e.place figures/set OM's prior to the livestream, eat before, go to the bathroom etc etc). Sir Heroscape's Content

But the spontaneous pee break in AYP vs kd was one of my favorite moments in our videos. But fair point. We'd definitely be coordinating with whoever was playing so they would know it was a live game.

Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
We've got a nice casual game coming your way today. Or maybe less of a casual game and more of an Ancient Middle Earth Grudge Match!
@kevindola
and
@JaesShurrig
are playing Elves vs Dwarves (though the Elves have some mercenaries) to see which of the races is the best. Will Elven range and nimbleness prevail? Or will simple, strong Dwarven stats win the day?

Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
Hello friends! We've got a special new treat for you this week! This is the culmination of a couple of ideas I've been wanting to try for a little bit. One is a team game, because multiplayer games are probably my favorite way to play (OHS Teams Season would be awesome!). I've also thought it would be interesting to try taking a first person approach to game commentary, as opposed to our usual third party commentary. So we combined those into one to bring you a team game where
@TrueMurray
and myself join in as players. I am joined by
@Sir Torin Brokenshield!
and True is joined by GoldStarmie, both of whom are local Utah players, and during the game we split into our teams to talk about strategy as we play the game, giving you a first hand look into playing and strategizing with a teammate.
This week we have STB and my perspective on the game, and next video will be True and GoldStarmie's perspective. (Eventually I'd like to do a supercut that jumps between perspectives, but I don't have time for that editing marathon right now.) This should make for some really cool insight to the same game from different perspectives. Let us know what you think about this type of first person commentary and if we should try it again in the future (as well as what can be improved (other than my voice...)). Also, fair warning, this is a long one... Monthly Utah Tournaments in SLC!!

Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
Yeah that’s a monster video, I’m going to listen to it in bits as I can. Team games online opens the avenue for private chat/strategizing with your teammate, which often can’t be done with the physical game, so this is cool to see. I’m shocked there aren’t 2v2 online tourneys, although I suppose these games could take a long time...

Yeah, I'm guessing that length is the main reason why there haven't been any 2v2 online tourneys. Scheduling could also be difficult with 4 players instead of 2, so you'd need a more flexible period for games to happen. Still, I think that if there were interest it would be awesome to try -- even as a side event and not an "official" OHS season. Monthly Utah Tournaments in SLC!!

Team Edward?
There was a team event that technically never finished due to scheduling issues. I'm not sure if OHS would do so again since the reasons for that are unlikely to repeat themselves. I'll definitely keep it in consideration.

Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
Here comes part 2 of our perspective-based game! This time
@TrueMurray
and GoldStarmie take the reins in the game against myself and
@Sir Torin Brokenshield!
And since I had more time with this one, I was able to do a bit more editing and cut down the run time by a good amount, which should make watching it easier!
(The intro and outro are the same, so if you want to skip to where True and Tye's perspective begins it's at 5:29.) Also, fun fact: this originally 2-hour game is all of five rounds long. Monthly Utah Tournaments in SLC!!

Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
This serves as another answer to the common "why don't we run more online team events" question.

Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
Yeah, completely understandable. A whole season would be rough. Thinking about it for myself, I more just wish I had more opportunity to play/watch team games with a bunch of different people than a tournament necessarily, so I should probably just talk to people about it more.

Re: 10 Points Under - Heroscape Casting Videos
Well met! Although next month’s game is a free for all, the Gang generally plays 2 v 2. Very often, for various reasons, they devolve into two 1 v 1 conflicts. I’d love to see a team game strategy thread. |

So... you should post the card from the icon on the channel - what I can see looks witty, but I can't read it all!
