Don't Panic Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 curious, how is generalship determined? i guess i never knew how these things are done lol. do you do it by like the 20-0 scores or by like the amount of points you take off your opponent? PS: glad i avoided matt p and evan. those lists would have given me issues...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJTW Posted May 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Best general was straight vp's. Beasly has over 11,000 and was about 3k ahead of the nearest 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJTW Posted May 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 PS: glad i avoided matt p and evan. those lists would have given me issues...... I watched every game for at least a bit, and there were some bad match ups from time to time, but the matches were prettymuch determined by battle points. There was some shenanigans at the beginning of day two because of the marathon though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romes Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Jeremy, Thanks for running a great event. It ran very smoothly and I really enjoyed it. I had 5 great games against nice guys. Scoring feedback (edit: for future events): I would steer away from using VPs instead of BPs to determine the best general. In this case the result was the same, but straight VPs often awards army types over generalship. For example, you could have a lizardman player who plays a tight tournament, wins every game, and averages 1200 points a game. You could have a warriors player who shoves forward and gets 2500 3 games and 0 the other two. The lizards could even beat him 1200-0 in game 5 in this scenario. The warrior player than wins best general with 7.5K to 6k. VPs rewards carnage level, which is largely a function of the army rather than the player. The terrain was great, I was impressed that that many battle mats were available, they were really nice. Also glad you were able to get the store to let us in an hour before opening, that was big for getting home Sunday. Thanks again for running the event! -Matt 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't Panic Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 yea i definitely agree about BP over VP... some armies just have to rely on victory differences and cant table people. shooty armies like wood elves come to mind for an example there. and probably my army build as well(especially when cowards run away from me!!!), but eh idc about ranking things more about just having a good time and thats what i had. thanks a bunch jeremy you put on a great show and ill be back next year as long as my army still exists :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexicanNinja Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Would you run towards 3 war machines and a block of 18 irondrakes, knowing that there is also a huge brick of longbeards and slayers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

godswearhats Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 From an observer's point of view, it would be great to see breakdown of scores (e.g. paint, sports, etc.) too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
