It might just be easier to do this at someone's house.
We'd definitely have more time to play.

Not sure what everyone's collection has but I've got this.
13 - ROTV
8 - SOTM
3 - BOTU
5 - RttFF
5 - VW
8 - TJ
5 - TT
5 - FOTA

Wave 1-13
(4-10 of each common, 2-4 of each Unique.)
All GenCon Promos
All Flagbearers

I don't have any of the custom releases here
(as getting mass figures seems to be a problem)

I've also got allot of unopened hard to get stuff for trade.

Good to hear from you!

That may be an idea for down the road, once the group is more established and we know each other. Some folks might not be as comfortable with that at this point.

The casual day is only "scheduled" for 3 hours. As long as there are no events going on, the owners of Animagination have basically said that the tables are available as long as they are open. Anyone who wanted could continue on past that time. For me, 3 hours is the upper limit for the attention span of my 7 1/2 year old son. I am hopeful these casual days will be a step toward getting him ready for an all-day tournament.

To maximize the playing time, I pre-assemble the map(s) I bring on a piece of foam core board the night before, except for stuff like glaciers and rock out croppings.

My wife thinks I've got a lot of stuff!
Hope to meet you December 31!

For the next Casual Scape Day, here are the confirmed attendees:

1. Warrior of Eberon
2. mac122
3. Son of mac
4. Friend of mac
5.

Would love to be able to add more names to the list. Let us know if you'll be able to attend.

[mac122]

Just a reminder, our next Casual Scape Day is this Saturday!

I'll be bringing AliasQTip's Jungle Temple Ruin. It's a beautiful battlefield.

I may bring one other map as well. Along with some Classic Scape armies, I will also have a couple made from the Heroes of Star Wars Scape project. Should be fun to have some Jedi and Sith leaping around the Jungle Temple.

There's still room for more players. Ring out the old year with HeroScape!

I have a friend coming, though she might not stay the whole time. If you need me to bring a map, I can.

That's great! Even if she can't stay the whole time, it will be good to have more people involved.

I don't think space will be an issue this time, so go ahead and bring a map. It would give the opportunity to try out armies on different maps. If you decide which one you'll bring, please post it. That way, we can make sure the other map I bring won't be too similar.

My son may also be bringing a couple of the HALO customs he's been working on to try out.

Another Casual Scape Day completed.

We had 5 in attendance this time:
WarriorofEberron
Friend of WarriorofEberron
mac122
Son of mac
Friend of mac


WoE brought a huge map he created by combining 2 maps from the Thaelenk Tundra scenarios. I brought AliasQTip's Jungle Temple Ruin and Dignan's Breach. Definitely 3 very different styles of maps. WoE's epic, sprawling battlefield provided ample time to move armies and set positions. The multiple LOS blockers, jungle terrain, close quarters, and elevation changes in Jungle Temple Ruin forced more tactical maneuvering. The relatively close start zones in Breach meant quick action - not much time to plan, just move and quickly countermove against your opponent.

Everyone had fun, even Son of mac, who was disappointed that his Chief K HALO custom did not last as long as he would have liked.

Stay tuned. We'll be setting a date for the next Casual Scape Day soon. Hope more of you can join us.

Next Casual Scape day:
Saturday, February 25, 10am
Animagination
West County Center, Des Peres, MO

Hope to see more of you St. Louis area Scapers there!

I've added a bunch Superhero customs to my collection, so at the upcoming Casual Scape Day, in addition to some Classic Scape armies, I'll be bringing some official Marvel and awesome C3G customs to try out as well.

[mac122]

I'll be bringing 2 maps this Saturday. Not sure which ones yet, though I have been thinking about Dignan's Valor's Vale. The other will be one of the C3G maps to try out some Superheroes.

[WarriorOfEberron]

I will be attending tomorrow. I have a few questions:

First, how many point armies will the Superheroes be? I might bring some Classic to counter them.

Second, should I bring a map?

Good questions.

I haven't even selected the Supers I'm bringing, but I would guess around 1000 pts.

If you can, go ahead and bring a map. That will give us 3 to choose from. I will be there with Son of Mac and Friend of Mac. Hopefully some more folks will show up.
