Question, how won the dreamblade tournament?

I was the winner in the Dreamblade tournament. Bach, Rob, and myself were all ties with 5 points but I had the highest percentage largely due to beating Rob in the 2nd round I imagine.

Still by my math Rob will be the top ranked player in the province with 33 points, Bach and myself chasing him with 30 points apiece.

In addition to the points you get for the games themselves comming in first for an Edge event gives you 12 points, 2nd give you 8, 3-4 gives you 4 points, 5-8 gives you 2, and 9th or lower place is an extra point.

An Ekkyon Wayfarer which kinda sucked as I don't play Fear. So another mini for Bach's collection.

I grabbed another booster and snagged a Whirlwind Dervish as well as some nice uncommons and commons so that made up for it.

Cool. Ironically enough, Scott let me grab a dreamblade booster for going 3-0 in the DDM tournament and I pulled a Carrion Spiker, which is what I had just traded to Rob a few hours before. hehe.

I wouldn't mind scheduling a demo some time in november what weekends are open and what is everyone interested in playing?

I would also like to schedule a couple for December, probably DDM, and SW Starships.

The way we had set the Saturday's up is Star Wars minis is always at 10 AM with half of the events being sanctioned. Heroclix every other Saturday as well.

Then at 1 PM it's either a DDM theme game, 200 point Sanctioned DDM event run by myself, or a Dreamblade Edge Event (1 each month).

If you want to run the DDM event I was going to take in December I'm okay with that, I believe it was going to be the 16th of December. Perhaps the Star Wars Starships could go on one of the open Wedensday's or run along with one of the Star Wars minis games.

Another Dreamblade demo would be cool, I likes my free swag. How about Monsters Menace America for a Wedensday night, that looks interesting.

So, what's the verdict on Thursday's tournament?

And since no one has asked in a couple posts, are the new retailer kits in?

The verdict for Thursday is that wizards screwed up and we didn't notice until it was too late to do anything about it.

The tournament will still be 100 pt constructed, triad format, but it won't be sanctioned.

sounds good to play 100 pts, but what the heck it Triad?

Rules for Triad can be found in the DDM DCI Floor Rules.

Round 1: Assault
Round 2: Assault + cave of pain (all melee and ranged attacks do +5 damage)
Round 3: Assault + bounty (all creatures are worth 5 extra victory points when killed unless they're kobold miners or something else with a beneath contempt ability)

So,

What should I play for 100 pts?  A Green Dragon perhaps?

Hello,

Sorry, I forgot to ask in my last post.  When are you looking at doing the Three Dragon Ante tournament in November?  My Wednesdays are looking good that month for a few extra games.

Looking forward to the schedule.

Cheers

I believe we had set the TDA tournament in november for the 29th.

There is still plenty of room for other Wedensday games so let Scott know if you have some suggestions.

Sadly no minis for me tonight, too many things to take care of.

I'll be there tomorrow night for Dreamblade though.

Buncha slackers not showing up for my tournament. I thought people would show up in droves knowing they wouldn't have to face me. I guess I'll stop worrying about scaring people away.

Four people showed up, Scott, Chris L, Jay, and David. Jay was the big winner going 3-0. They did an UD booster draft, and Jay snagged a Rikka for his efforts.

I had to work on my dreamblade warband for tonight so I can be sure to stay on top of the pack.  Plus with it not being sanctioned there was no point in me getting beat down.

Five people out for Dreamblade tonight, Nico, Rob, Chris Smythe, Richard, and myself.

Since the games we going fast and smooth we decided to play 5 rounds, giving us 4 games each with a by. Richard was the big winner on the night going 5-0.

Sadly Scott is out of Dreamblade boosters so we have to wait until he gets more stock to draft or prizes.

Yup, it was fun. Getting 4 games in instead of 3 was nice too. And rolling 13 damage on 6 dice to kill Rob's Loyal Scragglemaw when it moved into my reaper's cell was also fun. Looking forward to next week's tournament.

Nope I'm pretty sure that sucked

BTW I think you only rolled 12 damage and on 6 dice there is only a 3.2% chance of that happening or 1.45% if it was 13, and 6.36% of getting 11 damage which would have been enough to disrupt the scragglemaw.

I think I made the right choice moving him in there, and we should probably check your dice for illegal modifications

*shrug* When I tell the story again in a couple weeks it'll have grown to rolling 19 on 6 dice to kill both a loyal scragglemaw and hawkeyed instigator.

Hey Beer Baron, when are you getting some more Dreamblade in?

Don't forget to order in the Baxar's War for the booster draft on the 27th.

Order much Baxar's War, the prerelease shall be a mighty event. Looking forward to it, then some mad BW in the morning. I think Beer Baron should set us up some cots in the gaming room for those of us who will be attending both.

Happy Monday!

I've requested a change in sanctioning format for DreamBlade Edge on the 27th, so we'll wait and see if it is a sealed game, or constructed.

This week:

Wednesday - Magic Demo with Rob M (A&A minis is cancelled)
Thursday - D&D Minis Epic 500 points sanctioned (retail kits should be in)
Friday - Friday Night Magic
Saturday - 10 am Dreamblade Edge event, sanctioned, and D&D minis 200 points constructed, sanctioned by Mike J.

I should be working on getting the schedule for Nov. & Dec. up soon. I'll post when I do.

Cheers!

T.B.B.

PS - Nice signature MJ. Anyone know where I can get a Tick Costume?

As for the November Schedule I was thinking of taking the Wedensday Dreamblade even off your hands so you and Bach could have a chance to play in that one. Assuming you want to get in on the awesomeness that is Dreamblade.

Hello,

I am looking forward to seeing the November and December schedules.

I am also looking forward to the new kits on Thursday.  Please let them come in by then.

By the way, where did the kitty go?  Is it stalking me?
