Tuesday Clix at Zombie Planet
George, please post these at the store. Mark, please send this to your Thursday group.
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. 3) You are required to have a current PAC with you.
YOU MAY BUY YOUR CLIX HOWEVER YOU CHOOSE: AT ANOTHER VENUE, ON-LINE, FROM A GUY THAT GOT THEM WHEN THEY FELL OFF A TRUCK, ETC. HOWEVER, PLEASE REMEMBER THAT IT IS RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL, WHILE IN A STORE, ANY STORE, TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO BUY THEIR CLIX ELSEWHERE. IF WE ALL DID THAT, WHERE WOULD WE PLAY?
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 or 5 rounds and if we have 12 or more, we will go four or five rounds. PLEASE PLAN TO STAY UNTIL 12:00 (or 1:30 a.m. for games which commence after 8:00 p.m.).
For more on "additional team abilities" (atas), "Modern Age", "Golden Age" and other terms, please see the Zombie Planet Message Boards.
September Events
September 3, 2013: Fear Itself Month 4. Construct a 600 point team based around your chosen faction: The Mighty or The Worthy. If you do not remember your faction, please consult the Zombie Planet message boards. No resources are allowed. Although each is unique, you may play one of each hammer with your force, paying the appropriate point cost (8 points), following all other rules for them as special objects. So to be clear, you may include one of Kuurth's, Mokk's, Skadi's and/or Skirn's hammer on your force, in addition to any other standard objects you may choose to play. You do not have to play any other standard objects. You must still pay the point cost for each hammer included. You may not include any figures from the opposing faction and at least two of the figures on your force must be from your faction. Figures with "the Worthy" keyword receive a +1 bonus when attempting to pick up a hammer. Figures with "the Mighty" keyword may be assigned 1 ATA for which they have the appropriate keyword, no matter how many other figures on their team are assigned an ATA; all of the Mighty may be assigned "the Mighty" ATA in addition to any other ATA. You must pay the appropriate points for all assigned ATAs. For example, a force including FI Iron Fist #018 and FI Dr. Strange #021 may be assigned The Defenders ATA, Midnight Sons ATA and The Mighty ATA. A wildcard may only copy one ATA at a time, as usual. Figures with the "Asgardian keyword" and neither "the Worthy" nor "the Mighty" receive a +2 modifier to their movement value. This is a friendly event. As we will not have "Fear itself prizes and hammers, we will divide then entry fees as follows. First place will receive a Super Booster if we have at least six players, second place and player with the most wins with an average of at least 11 points per round will receive at least one five-figure booster if we have at least eight and ten players, respectively. Additional players will mean additional boosters for each position, starting with first. If we get more than sixteen players, fourth place will receive a booster, as well. Unlike other FI events, the judge will forego a prize. All boosters will be from Wolverine and the X-Men. (f) $5.00 Entry. I have talked to George. The entry will be paid directly to me.
If you did not make either of the last three Tuesday Fear Itself events, prior to the event, you must “declare (your) allegiance” to one of the two Fear Itself Factions: “The Worthy” or “The Mighty.” (You) are now fighting for victory on behalf of (your) chosen Faction. (You) may utilize the appropriate Additional Team Ability for (your) faction (provided in the Month One Fear Itself kit) on their force. Please be prepared to stay beyond 10:00.
September 10, 2013: "Magic in the Air." Construct a 400 point team. At least one figure on your force must have the "Mystical" keyword and possess or have the ability to use "Penetrating/Psychic Blast" somewhere on their dial. 25% Floor. (c) $2.00 entry.
September 17, 2013: "Floor it!" Put together your best "X" team or "X team enemy" for this 300 point, 50% Floor slugfest. Construct a 300 point team, 50% Floor all of which share the same named keyword for either the X-Men family of teams or their common enemies. Your team must have at least 3 figures. Obviously no team bases and no resources are permitted, but no feats or battlefield conditions, as well. All figures not restricted by the build are allowed. (c). $2.00 entry.
September 24, 2013: "There are other sets?" Construct a 300 point named-theme team from a set other than Marvel or DC. (f). $2.00 entry.
ANNOUNCEMENTS!
Wolverine and the X-Men, Star Trek: Attack Wing and Mage Knight: Ressurection may come out this month.
Preview of October
October 1, 2013: Fear Itself Month 5. Your two boosters are your entry. You must buy a Fear Itself booster and you may buy any other five-figure Marvel Booster in the store as your second booster. Tell Will which booster you want when you pay. Boosters will be distributed by me. You will construct a 500 point team. In addition to the Resources and Relics, you may bring up to one hundred points of Marvel universe figures to supplement your team. Up to 3 pogs 15 points or less from the Marvel Universe are allowed as part of your 100 point supplemental force. These figures follow the Highlander rules. The one hundred points are not "free" and may be used to supplement your forces. At least 200 points of your team must be from your sealed Fear Itself Boosters for this month. Extra FI boosters will be distributed in order of sign up. (c)
