Tuesday Clix at Zombie Planet
George, please post these at the store. Mark, please send this to your Thursday group.
PLEASE NOTE: I AM DEVISING A TEST WHICH A PLAYER MUST PASS (AT THE MOMENT 7 CORRECT OUT OF 10) BEFORE BEING PERMITTED TO PLAY IN COMPETITIVE EVENTS ON TUESDAYS. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO EXEMPT SOME PLAYERS FROM HAVING TO TAKE THE TEST. THE TESTS WILL START THE FIRST OR SECOND WEEK OF JANUARY. COME EARLY. YOU MAY TAKE IT ONCE PER WEEK UNTIL YOU PASS.
Basics - Games start at 6:30 unless otherwise noted. On Tuesdays, we observe the following House Rules - 1) No characters may be "In Contact With Oracle" who are not from the DC Universe. 2) You may only use a Theme Team cancel if you have at least 2 BFCs with you to play and you are playing them.
For major events, such as pre-releases and resource dial events (Infinity Gauntlet, Utility Belt, etc.), please remember that if we have 10 or more players we may go 4 rounds and if we have 12 or more, we will go four rounds. PLEASE PLAN TO STAY UNTIL 12:00 (or 1:30 a.m. for games which commence after 8:00 p.m.).
No Man's Land Info. In addition to having the correct number of "points," to qualify for the Batcave, you must attend 3 No Mans Land events on a Tuesday night and six non-No Mans Land events on a Tuesday night between November and April. You must pick a gang on the first night that you attend a No Mans Land event and you must stay with that gang for the remaining months of the event. If you did not attend the first event, a gang will be assigned to you if you come to a later event.
For more on "additional team abilities" (atas), "Modern Age", "Golden Age" and other terms, please see the Zombie Planet Message Boards.
