Re: Utah monthly
I think that this format is a great way to get new players to experience the game, if they haven't had a lot of experience with it yet. And it's a way for them to experience the tournament setting too. So invite your friends and family to compete with you!

Re: Utah monthly
I completely agree with you. For that reason, along with just how much fun team battles are, this is probably my favorite format that we do, and I'm glad we're revisiting it. This would definitely be one to bring new players to, and I'm hoping to get my brother who hasn't played for 5+ years to come.

Re: Utah monthly
Team tourneys are fun, but I think that would be a little too often...Its a good idea keeping it fresh with new and different formats imo

Re: Utah monthly
Alright, it's that time again!
Bigga Battle Report Origin story! Easy one this time. The very first tournament I attended back in 2010 was set at 450 points, and at that time I discovered my favorite army I’ve ever played. When the Gencon tourney was announced to have 450-point armies, I was thinking how cool it would be to take my army there. So, when we decided to do a Gencon prep tourney here, my army was an easy choice. BiggaBullfrog’s Army: Warforged Soldiers x3 80 (240) Heirloom 90 Fen Hydra 120 450 Points/11 Figures I honestly wasn’t sure how well this would fare in a Reverse-the-Whip tournament, but I love playing it so it was really no contest anyway. There are a lot of moving parts in this build, and while there are no obvious synergies, the units do all work well together. Obviously, Warforged can switch opponents into groups to be Force Orb-ed, or onto lower ground to get Hydra-ed. On top of that, the whole play style is complimentary, as Warforged excel at taking out lone figures which encourages the opponent to keep them closer together, which makes things easier for Heirloom and the Hydra to get productive turns. Then, after that main group is gone, each figure can play cleanup on its own really well. I just really like playing games that feel like puzzles as I try to take apart the opponent’s army. Game 1

Game 2

Had a great time everyone! I had a ton of fun games and really enjoyed them all! True said he had a fun time as well, even though he lost all of his games. We've really got a great group going here and it's super to keep seeing new people crop up as well! Looking forward to this month's event! Monthly Utah Tournaments in SLC!!

Re: Utah monthly
Sweet Battle Report, Bigga!
I was so lucky that you were, well, so unlucky with the hounds mobility rolls. Hounds are excellent counters to Warforged (usually), and AE can end a Hydra before it can even get into a position to attack. It came down to one unit vs one unit in the end, which is the most fun result of a game I was also lucky for the opportunity to use Warforged Soldiers for the first time. I've always liked the idea and look of them, but have only ever played against them. So that was fun! |

Re: Utah monthly
@BiggaBullfrog
- - - What an epic battle that was! After Nilfheim came flying out of the gates using his Ice Shard Breath special attack to clean out Warforged after Warforged, I began thinking to myself that I've got this game in the bag! It was just after that overconfident thought that Fen Hydra came slithering around the corner to take out my dragon in one single turn. That was a well deserved victory!
Thanks for the awesome tournament. I had a blast in each and every game I played. Can't wait for the tourney at the end of this month! |
