For multiplayer free for all, I think this format has more reason to 'gang up' on one player, and if they start as the only one in their start zone then you have even more reason to hit their start zone from height.

Re: Burnout - Alternate Format
Ah, I was envisioning free-for-all where you get points for how much you kill (rather than last player standing wins), which is what I'm more familiar with. Hence my first thought to shoot down at the newly spawned player.
Yeah those incentives would be a bit different if you're just playing for last player standing. |

Re: Burnout - Alternate Format
Swung by to say that Dignan's scraps could also be good in this format.
@Dignan designed them for a semi-similar format; except for his format, you play lots of games against lots of different opponents.

Re: Burnout - Alternate Format
Are any of these maps (or any burnout maps for that matter) available for online 'scape? I was looking for them in the maps and figures google doc but couldn't find any.
Thanks! |

Re: Burnout - Alternate Format
Spoiler Alert!
I actually think with the way Spirits work it's ok if you place them on future armies. Similar to placing a spirit on not-yet-Dropped Airborne (which could even be your opponent's not-yet-Dropped AE). I remember playing this mode whenever your figures stayed in place. The reset seems better, although having to draft/order your armies to prepare for an uphill fight is a nice nuance. Maybe give them the spawning army automatic initiative for "Round 1". Either way, I want to play this mode soon. I'll probably build a map or two soon and post them. I'll echo the Online Scape question about whether any of the current maps are available. Have you considered single BftU maps? What about M:TCB? Oh, and the mode should be called “Gauntlet”. |

Re: Burnout - Alternate Format
I’m curious if you have any post tournament thoughts on this mode, anything you would change or tweak after seeing it in a whole tournament. I agree that Gauntlet is a really good name also.
