Re: Save the Savage Date! 11/7 Maryland

I've added a few names to the OP, based on things I've heard privately & what I've read here. I can't wait!

Re: Save the Savage Date! 11/7 Maryland

I don't think it would hurt to also personally invite some of the former readers of the M.A.R.S. thread, since you never know when they stop by to check things out or if they've got plans for the 11/07, or even have any desire to play some H'Scape again. It would be nice to occasionally hear from them and know that they "ain't dead yet" even if they can't make it to a particular event. Folks like:
@tom ; @Arcus ; @mad_wookiee ; @spidysox ; @peteparkerh ;
@fallow ; @grunttactics ; @DragonSlayer2 ; @jbbnbsmith ; @Northgate ;
@TheEpicLlama ; @TheEpicAlpaca ; @Big Boa ; @King of Blanks ; @buellsmith ;
@Scooter72 ; @owvanguard ; @major/flint; @Azalyth ; @manofwar ;
etc.

AKA the Highlander tournament. As in there can be only one. From the old movies and tv series of the same name! I've often considered this format, just never pulled the trigger on it.

It's got my vote. If I decide to un-retire from Heroscaping. And if I could actually attend. I do like the fact that I won on my way out. Maybe if I say this is my last tournament ever I'll win this one too..................

73 tournaments. 175 - 145 - 1 overall record. 6 tournament wins.

Re: Save the Savage Date! 11/7 Maryland

No, I don't think so. I'm pretty sure I know what it'll be, but I have to check with my Advisor and settle on a point total.

Thanks for your help, all! Even if I didn't take your suggestion, it doesn't mean it (a) wasn't appreciated, (b) wasn't helpful in guiding me, and (c) wasn't better than what I ended up picking!

Re: Save the Savage Date! 11/7 Maryland

Quoting the GenCon description of the event, with numbers modified for our benefit:
Quote:
Players bring 2 pre-drafted 310 point Heroscape army, (no Marvel) army size is limited to 14 figures. Before each game, there will be a dice-off, done by the players. The winner of the dice-off chooses first army choice or second army choice. Whoever has first army choice may choose any of the four armies (either of their two or either of their opponent's two). The other player may then choose from any of the other three armies.
That's right, Take 2. This will give everybody the option to play with new stuff, or stuff they didn't bring, if they want. It'll also punish people (maybe) for bringing excessive cheese. Don't forget, if you bring one strong army and one weak army, you may regret it!

The idea is that you brought 2 armies and your opponent each round brought 2. That's a combined pool of 4 armies. Each round, you roll off against your opponent. The winner of that roll chooses whether to pick an army first or second. Whoever picks first takes one of the four armies; whoever picks second then chooses one of the remaining armies.

You can always choose an army you brought. You don't have to, but you can. You brought two; your opponent may have already chosen one, you can take the other. Or you can take one of his (or hers).

I believe this will be a new challenge in our area, but I think we're up for it. Thoughts?

Re: Save the Savage Date! 11/7 Maryland

I would rather we combine these armies for massive battles of 28 figures at 620 pt. for each opponent, even if after the dice-off the winner has the option of choosing first and fourth or second and third.

But I'll play whatever format you've decided is appropriate for 11/17 IF I'm in the mood to play some 'Scape that day (highly likely), I'm physically able to make the long journey southward (questionable), and also have sufficient disposable income on-hand to pay the trolls along the way (debatable).

Re: Save the Savage Date! 11/7 Maryland

Ok, hearing no other objections, I'm going to update the OP with the format. It'll be fun, Johngee!

Re: Savage Take 2! Maryland 11/7/15

Ok, the OP is updated with the format: Take 2, 315 points. I've also added a few more people who I've heard from privately, including old friends ( @Robber !) and new friends ( @Southwind !). So far the "attending" also includes the "maybes." I'll sort it out as it gets closer.
