Raindog Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 "Your army ate at Señor Nurglitos burrito shack last night and something just ain't right down below. You must get your army to the outhouses in time." Thank you Hero Zero. Points: 1150 Location: WoW Time: 4 PM DeploymentBattleline.Special: Each player mark a suitable piece of terrain to be the outhouses/latrines. Place this terrain 36 inches from the Long side deployment and 24 inches from the short table sides.( for the spatially impaired that means your objectives are dead center of your opponents deployment zone)Objectives: No VPs are awarded for destroying models in this mission. At the start of ANY movement phase if a unit is in contact with their objective, remove it from the table and immediately score full VPs for that unit.Game length: This game uses random.game duration starting at the end of turn 4 (5+, 4+, 3+)Why this is fun: you score nothing for beating units, killing units, or being awesome. It's all about how well you can score and keep your opponent from scoring. If you dash for it and leave yours open you will lose and vice versa. Drawbacks: yes faster armies have some advantage but castle armies are.not fun for anyone so a moot point.Scoring: 5 Points for having the most VPs in the latrine 1 Point for each unit in the latrine. 5 Points for preventing your opponent from getting any units in the latrine. *Play as many games as you like, but take your top two results for league points.

MexicanNinja Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Consider it done! The ninja who happens to be Mexican will bring chips and bean dip! Do you get a bonus point for causing your opponent to use the outhouse during the game? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeroZero Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 I hope everyone enjoys this scenario. I really would appreciate good constructive feedback after games in this thread. Fun scenarios like this is how new stuff gets added to tournament packets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun scenarios like this is how new stuff gets added to tournament packets. I wouldn't include this for a tournament scenario as one, it really doesn't make any kind of strategic sense and it's pretty much a watch tower scenario because you just need to get stuff into a building to win. However, it looks extremely fun and I like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, it looks extremely fun and I like that. I think the lack of strategic sense is just the silly fluff I.wrote it could just as easily be a race to the safety of a pass/fort etc. The tactics come from 1. How much do you send to the fort? Every unit off the table is one less that you can prevent your opponent from scoring 2. How often can you afford to engage? It could end randomly, you could bog in combat etc. 3. The watchtower argument is moot. It's in the book and we've used it.in the last 3 OFCCs I know.of in some variation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it, and I said I like it for a fun scenario. Also, you said for tournaments and OFCC isn't a tournament. Watchtower is the least if never used scenario, just short of the modified blood and glory used, for tournaments because it is the most ridiculous scenario in the book. Also, you didn't get an automatic win by holding the watch tower you just received bonus VP for controlling. Again, it was modified because the standard watch tower scenario is a broken scenario.

Brother Glacius Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 It was an interesting night, that is for sure. Despite having two matchups that did not seem to be in my favor (deamons and then skaven with plenty of magic weapons + poison) the scenario let me pull in some decent points. I'm sure had they been stand up fights, I'd not have done nearly as well. Oh, and I have to pin my bone giant again...in new spots as it broke in half despite being in a foam case, and then the head popped off. Although he did pretty poorly the whole night, only ever getting one extra attack. Meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murphy'sLawyer Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 In both my Games niether of us got In before the game ended. We ended up blocking each other's way. In my first game where I was held up my opponent got greedy and went to kill my Arrer Boyz instead of just getting the objective and the game ended on turn 5 before he could get his models back to go in. Still fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJP Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 Sorry I missed this one; it sounds like a ridiculous and different scenario. I blogged about it anyway! Not sure if it would be the most obnoxious, annoying thing possible, or a complete failure. I guess we'll never know... Hope to see this scenario (or one like it) in the future.
