Alien Invitational by Chas
ALIEN INVITATIONAL!
Another ChasScape Production “Earth? Sure, it’s a planet of champions. But what if it gets destroyed? Who will take care of the Universe then? Tryouts for CUES, the Custom Universe Emergency Squad are now being held, and No Terrans Need Apply, thank you very much! Event overseen by The Interplanetary Olympic Committee, Inc.; details below…” --THE GALACTIC SPACE TIMES, “All The Far Out News Fit To Print” Current Edition, Vidpage One *** 3 Player Teams: 1,400 Points of Unique Hero Good Guy supers, taking up a maximum of 10 start spaces. Each player must field three different teams, to be assigned at random to each game. All designer sources welcome. All characters must be of non-Terran race (Terran/Other Hybrids looked down on, but reluctantly permitted—reference recent Galactic Lawsuit #84039584231108476034482). Clones, Cyborgs, Robots, etc. permitted, but only if of non-Terran origin, with such alternate race so stated on their registration cards (Reference Galactic Civil Rights Act #7403825598732859478/30285566793232304058343389540553893849509767645667)—pre tournament physicals must be passed, and we’re checking, with very high tech equipment! Also Qualified: "Mutants" (Marvel) and "Metahumans" (DC) If humans don't like them; we do. Character Levels: No A Level: (351-500 points) characters may battle—they pass automatically, and we’d be lucky to get them! B Level: (241-350 points) Max. 4 characters C Level: (201-240 points) Any Number D Level: (Up to 200 points) Any Number Team Registration: All teams must be pre-approved by the Game Master prior to game day Feb. 4, 2015 (Yes, alright; Earth Standard Time—its always all about Earth, isn’t it?) to avoid duplications among teams, ringers, miscellaneous game breakers, etc. First come, first served, so get cracking—we’ve only got 3 weeks to come up with 3 teams each. Map: Planet Gymnasia; varied terrain. (Galactic Coordinates Standard Ref: G501236349274665) Format: Free For All. Ten rounds per game. Victory: Most points “defeated;” no killing if possible, please. (All entrants must sign mortality waivers. All entrants killed without revival powers will be disqualified.) Last edited by chas; January 18th, 2015 at 07:18 PM. |

Re: Alien Invitational by Chas
Alien Invitational: Qualification Clarifications
(Note: the term 'Alien' in the sense of non-Terran is used so that Earthers will get the point. We're not aliens, of course--they are!) 1. Terrans Radically/Genetically Re-Engineered: Beings from Earth who have been radically modified by alien technology do qualify. 2. Fosterage: Aliens fostered on Earth do qualify. Note however, that in the case of the famous Superman (El) family of Kryptonians, most will be overqualified due to a Class A Point Range. Terrans fostered elsewhere than Earth receiving powers and abilities far beyond mortal men also qualify. 3. Reformed Villains: Alien Ex-offenders now acting heroically qualify. But we'll be looking at these cases very carefully. Contact your local Game Master ahead of time to plead your case before including one on any proposed team for your own convenience! (Data Records of Space Police HQ, 30th Century Earth will be definitive). 4. Terran Heroes Adventuring In Space who still reside primarily on Earth do not qualify. Examples: members of the Green lantern Corps or Legion of Super Heroes from Earth, Adam Strange, Captain Comet, etc. (Proof of residence away from Earth must be furnished).

Re: Alien Invitational by Chas
Note the revised OP, which now allows for Mutants and Metahumans. We had trouble making up teams without more candidates.
The idea of having three teams per player and choosing them randomly for each game, is to ensure all are seriously designed. I'm urging everyone to use characters they have not used yet or much. Note that the Guardians of the Galaxy (C3G) fit the criteria for a team in this scenario. |

Re: Alien Invitational by Chas
Would this team qualify?
Angles & Demons 1400 Zauriel 320, Angle Spawn 320, Demon Frankenstein 320, Undead Archangle 260, Mutant Daredevil 180, Mutate |

Re: Alien Invitational by Chas
Two of us have now had their teams approved, so we're halfway there. Together these six teams total 34 characters. So the scenario is working out with the added categories. I'll post all 12 teams/armies here after they are approved.
Sherman Davies is using his own cards, and Kolakoski C3Gs. What, no Independent Designers represented yet? Hmmm... |

Well met!
Quote:
As Sherman has chosen his armies already, chas has already seen mine, leaving Taeblewalker, who will draft at the last minute without any thought to countering me, but rather of finding cards not yet chosen, I feel free to post my armies here, and solicit suggestions from "Independent Designers" for improving my team with their cards.

Re: Alien Invitational by Chas
My 2 cents.... If you really want a second X healer in the first team I prefer Marrow over X-23 at 220 points. She has 3 ranged attacks that will benefit from Sages' +1 booster and a defensive counter strike type power.
I had some other thoughts but then I remembered the armies could only include good guys, which really limits you quite a bit. I don't know if Marrow as a terrorist gets in over the Assassin X-23 or not. |

It includes my personal picks from The Great Card Hunt, performed over several months, from all over the site, including over six hundred from C3G and many individual designers. Attached Team Lists also allow you to consider team rosters from existing comic/film teams quickly. These lists are also a great way also to expand your knowledge of supers, by considering some that you are not familiar with but who fit in with some you are. In this case, I was actually able to consider six themed teams fairly quickly, of which I chose three as best suited for the scenario. The other three were The Inhumans, the Old Guardians of the Galaxy, and The X-Men. Last edited by chas; January 20th, 2015 at 01:19 AM. |

Re: Alien Invitational by Chas
***CONTESTANT TEAMS POSTED FOR FIRST INTERSTELLER COMPETITION***
(The Galactic Space Times, "All The Far Out News Fit To Print" Current Edition, Editorial Page)--Great excitement is being generated by the recent vidposting of all nine qualified hero teams for the Alien Invitational Competition. From bars to casinos all over the Universe(s), the buzz is circulating, toasts are being drunk, and betting is heavy at space casinos everywhere! Congratulations to the various team managers for putting together such exciting sport, which will also provide galactic citizens a new Custom Universe Emergency Squad should the need for it arise. We'll all sleep a little safer tonight for the thought. Thanks to the Interplanetary Olympic Committee, Inc. and R. J. Brande Industries for staging this important and exciting event. Good luck to all our contestants! --The Editors and Staff *** |

Re: Alien Invitational by Chas
Yodaking,
X23 has Reformed! Has Marrow? That would be the criteria contained in the scenario that I would use, after looking her up on wikipedia. Lots of characters go back and forth between Good and Evil. So I'm assuming you can cherry pick from any stage of their career as you like. She'd have to have at least had a Good period, even if she went back to Evil later on. |

Re: Alien Invitational by Chas
Kolakoski,
Since the teams have gone up much faster than anticipated--thanks to everyone for making the effort, as I'll need some time to pull the cards and figures/proxies for three of thee teams--(Sherm does his own), I'm not allowing any further changes this time. However, you can now have fun looking at enemy cards and figuring out how to beat them, if that floats your boat. |
