9th Age Talvisota Warmup Coverage

Menestyjiä palkittiin tavan mukaan
temaattisin kunniakirjoin.

Aika pitkään to do -listallamme viihtynyt Fantasy Battle -debyyttiturnauksemme pelattiin viimein sunnuntaina 4. joulukuuta! Tapahtuman teemana oli lämmittely Nopat & Taktiikka Ry:n perinteiseen Talvisota-figupelitapahtumaan, jossa pelataan saman katon alla turnauksia lukuisiin eri pelijärjestelmiin. Armeijalistojaan ja taitojaan saapuikin Fight Clubille testaamaan tusinan verran kenraaleita armeijoineen. Osa pelaajista oli ETC-maajoukkueveteraaneja, osa taas vieraili turnauksessa tai pelasi 9th Agea ensimmäistä kertaa. Kaikki kuitenkin sujui jouhevasti ja pelaajat opastivat tarvittaessa toisiaan - tiukka voiton tavoittelu näyttikin jääneen taka-alalle toverillisen fiilistelyn tieltä!

Tapahtumassa käytettiin moderniin tapaan The 9th Age -säännöstöä, joka on turnauslähtöisesti pelaajayhteisön kehittämä, itsenäinen sääntölaitos. Pelaajat kiittelivät matsien aikana nykyistä armeijatasapainoa ja pienempiä sääntömuutoksia, jotka tekevät pelin luonteesta aiempaa mielekkäämmän. Myös "ysin" skenaariot olivat hauskaa vaihtelua tavalliseen linjamättöön.

Taistelut on nyt pelattu ja tulokset löytyvät alta. Kiitokset kaikille kiinnostusta osoittaneille ja paikalle saapuneille kenraaleille! Järkätään meininkiä 9th Age Fantasy Battleen tulevaisuudessakin!
