Think of the chaos... Think of the interaction (this is all about hanging with friends, that just happen to also play scape, right?) |

Hmm... what if we declared this a "Team Tournament" in the additional sense that your armies are composed solely of heroes? Like superhero teams (except classic HS is allowed too)? 1000 points just seems like a lot. 400 apiece? There is a lot of paperwork and mechanics involved with teaming people up in a swiss tournament each round. Too much for my taste unless someone knows a tried-and-true system already. I'm not really afraid of Hulk or Thanos, so I see no reason to limit their participation. || My Maps Review Blog || My Maps Thread || My Marvel Customs || Knights of the Daystorm || [/CENTER] |

I completely agree with wisinger--sounds like a lot of fun!
Although if the objective is have an ultimate "team" champion, I don't see how this would work... How much are folks willing to "mix it up"? EDIT:I also liked Revdyer's 1000 points/12 hex thing. EDIT AGAIN: Would it be possible to do something like Craig's 8 people vs 8 people 2 games simultaneous that he talked about on the redone website. I thought passing units over to save a losing team/set of order markers was a cool idea. |

So does the snag come in that DCI automatically matches people up to games and has no "rotating team" option (not that it would likely be called that)?
What if when it shows: Player 1 vs. Player 2 on Map 1 Player 3 vs. Player 4 on Map 2 you just read it as Players 1 and 2 vs. Players 3 and 4 on Map 1? If that doesn't work, we used different software for the Houston tourney - let me consult with my genius wife to see if that software could do something like this. I also think that random teams per round is much better than random teams per day, as who'd want to be stuck with me for that long |

I dunno; someone who's better at logistics could probably figure it out. Don't they do something like this in tennis? (For the record, I'd rather keep the teams static. No randomization.) || My Maps Review Blog || My Maps Thread || My Marvel Customs || Knights of the Daystorm || [/CENTER] |

I like random teams. I don't like Marvel in a tournament.

I vote yes random teams, especially if it can be worked out logistically.
I haven't played with the marvel figures yet, so I will go with the majority. I vote 800 point teams/400 per player. I don't know about start zones. 24 army/12 per player or...? |

A - Random teams B - Marvel -Bb1- Points, 550? 800? 1000? (Sub-category since it's tied to Marvel) ---B1a--- Smaller start zones (Sub-category since it's only an issue if we play with more points than we did last year.) -B2- All heroes (Sub-category since it's tied to Marvel) || My Maps Review Blog || My Maps Thread || My Marvel Customs || Knights of the Daystorm || [/CENTER] |

I like the idea of a random partner in the sence that I would get to know a lot more people... however I liked the team tourny last year because it was fun planning your armies to coinside with one another and to help each other out. If I knew going in I would have a random partner each round my best bet would be to go into battle with a small balanced army which in my mind is no fun. I loved the two dragon teams, and one partner with all rats or melee while the other had range last March. I like the idea but I wouldn't want the offical team tourny to be replaced by this.

I very much disagree with the random teammate idea, because playing with a random parnter does not allow the team's and player's potential to fully unleash.
I mean, I wouldn't like to end up with someone random who doesn't like my liquid two or big roundness or exciteness, or vice-versa for the other guy. Isn't tournament suppose to be fun eh, but is not like I don't wanna meet everyone, just meeting them in a ... non-forceful way. Warriors of fate, It's now time to stand up. Use the sword of lightning to scatter your enemies. Believe in the future and love that you must protect. To eternity! To eternity! |
