nilus Posted October 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 We'll see how Drew's tourney goes tomorrow but I plan to run this one similarly. Depending on the interest I might see about organizing a secret Santa exchange and maybe a canned food drive to go along with the tourney.

FireSoCold Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Put me down as an alternate. I'm free that day, but I may get called into work. Plus, I want to make sure I got my figs painted and sealed before I drop'em on a tournament table. Thanks Dan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilus Posted November 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) I am editing the first post but here are the rules of the tournament Rules: 30 Soul Stone One Faction Open Draft - IE You draft your crew each round after finding out your strategy and opponents faction. The only rule is you must stay within one faction Malifood Drive(thanks to Dv8guy for the idea) - Each round you may donate canned or boxed food for extra soul stones. Each item will grant your crew 1 Soul Stone for the encounter or 5 Items can be traded in to grant one of your models the "Use Soul Stone ability". To maintain some balance and fair play the maximum amount of items per round that be donated for Soul Stones(or the use Soul Stone Ability) is 5. You can feel free to donate more(and its encouraged), but more then 5 items will only score you a lot of good Karma 3 Rounds with predetermined themed strategies and encounter feature. Players will be allowed to pick 2 Schemes as well. Prizes First Place - The First place Trophy, A Gift certificate for Games plus(amount depends on number of players), and maybe more(TBD) Second Place - The Second place Trophy, A Gift certificate for Games plus(amount depends on number of players), and maybe more(TBD) Thirds Place - The Third place Trophy, A Gift certificate for Games plus(amount depends on number of players), and maybe more(TBD) Painting contest Winners - TBD, most likely a gift certificate to the Wyrd store.

Lionheart Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Any way we can start a little earlier in the day? I have a holiday party that night to go to, and my wife will kill me if I show up really late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEiRD sKeTCH Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Any way we can start a little earlier in the day? I have a holiday party that night to go to, and my wife will kill me if I show up really late. How early are you thinking? First of all, gamers are consistently late. There are always those that call in to the store saying "Don't start yet! I'm almost there!" Second, Dan has to set up the tables before the gamers start showing up and distracting him with minutae of "what each scenario is going to be like", or "what do you think of this list?", or "how are you going to handle this rule?" Third, We have some folks that come from out of state. And that means they have to get up and out earlier than those of us who are local to the area.

nilus Posted December 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Not sure I can't start to much earlier then 12:30 since people are coming from out of town. I plan to put up the scenarios a week ahead of time to help alleviate questions and have people more prepared Here is the tentative schedule I was going with for the day 12:30 (or earlier as people roll in) - Sign up starts 12:50 - Pairings handed out. People draft there army list for round 1 1:00 - Minis hit the table round 1 2:30 - Round 1 ends - half hour break and Painting contest judging 3:00 - Pairing handed out for round 2. Draft armies 3:10 - Minis hit the table round 2 4:40 - Round 2 ends - 15 minute break 4:55 - Pairings handed out for round 3. Draft armies 5:05 - Minis hit the table round 3 6:35 - Round 3 ends - prizes handed out If rounds go quick or people don't want long breaks(or armies get drafted quickly) we might be able to shave time off this.

Phoenix Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 I'll be in the chicago area visiting a friend that week and should be able to make it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lionheart Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 That schedule looks okay, (it will make me late to the place I have to get to) as long as we really stick to it. The other thing about toruneys, is that they are never on time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
