Announcing September Events
= Announcing September Events
= Sun, Aug 1st, 2010
This summer continues to be awesome in terms of Magic events both large and small. Personally I've been keeping an eye on the live coverage of Grand Prix Colombus!
Here at NDC Butler I still have to look forward to our Magic Game day, and the Butler Gathering tournament.
Not to overshadow the events that are still to occur in August, but I've worked out my schedule of events for September - just because I like being that organized. And I must say that we continue to deliver the awesome not only with strong regular events like casual plays and FNMs, but with the pre-release of Scars of Mirrodin rolling out at the end of the month. Check out the descriptions below, and I hope to see you all around!

SWM: 150pt Option - "Legacy theme"
= SWM: 150pt Option - "Legacy Theme"
= Monday, January 4th.
This month's option play was a 150pt constructed. Only factions from the Legacy era were allowed - Meaning New republic, Empire, Vong, Sith, and of course Fringe. Players were allowed to mix factions to a certain extent such as mixing New Republic with Empire or Vong (but not all three), or Sith with Empire. Players were restricted from using certain unique characters that were not present during the Legacy era - the most obvious being the Emperor or Darth Vader in the empire faction.
Eight players showed up on a bad-weather day to participate in the event, and I commend everyone for braving and enduring the snow. We played three rounds. Ryan M. came in first playing a Fringe-only Black-sun squad. Dave M. came in second playing an Empire squad.
= Monday, January 4th.
This month's option play was a 150pt constructed. Only factions from the Legacy era were allowed - Meaning New republic, Empire, Vong, Sith, and of course Fringe.

SWM: 150pt Option - "Onezies"
= SWM: 150pt Option - "Onezies"
= Monday, December 8th.
The special option play rules for this tournament were as follows: 150pts, one faction, only one copy of any character allowed. Allowed a maximum of one unique, one very rare, and one rare. Only one command effect applies, but it applies globally. All special abilities and ranged attacks are reduced to a range of 2 squares.
Five players participated, including myself. I managed to go undefeated in this tournament with a Vong squad, using Warmaster Tsavong Lah. Nick K. took second with a New Republic squad.
I'd like to also apologize for the period of silence I've had here. Some things cropped up IRL. I hope to post more frequently in the future, although probably not for every single event.

SWM: 200pt constructed option play.
= SWM: 200pt constructed option play.
= Monday, October 12th.
For this option play we played a 'clone wars' theme. The rules were that a player could only play republic or seperatist, with no fringe characters allowed. Only four people participated in this tournament. We had a nice liesurely tournament, even if first round pitted clones vs clones and droids vs droids (see picture). Nick K. managed to win 3-0 running a Captain Rex/Commander Gree squad. Adam T. was ranked second with his General Grievous squad.

SWM: 100pt Constructed Tournament
= SWM: 100pt Constructed Tournament
= Monday, September 28th.
Just a regular constructed tournament this week for Star Wars Minis. Decided to switch it up a bit by only allowing 100pts. Seven players showed up for it, and we went our usual 3 rounds. Dave M. had a firm first with a mandalorian squad.

= SWM: 150pt Option Play tournament
= Monday, September 14th.
Our oddball SWM tournament this month was 150pts, but no force users, and players could use characters from multiple factions. Additionally, the first place prize for the tournament was a sealed box of the clone wars scenario pack - a $40 item. I had six players to start the tournament, and one late entry. We played a total of three rounds. Adam T. won the tournament with a mandalorian squad using Boba Fett, Mercenary Commander. Dave M. took second with a four-faction squad using Moff Nyna Calixte, among others.

= SWM: Star Wars Minis 200pt 'massive' tournament.
= Monday, August 17th, 2009
So for our monthly 'oddball' tournament we had 200pt constructed armies. Players had to field at least 1 large or huge figure or (alternatively) 1 figure valued at 50 or more points. Seven people attended this tournament, and we went three rounds. In the last round Adam T. won against Mason obtaining a 3-0 tournament record and first place (Mason got second).

= SWM: 200pt constructed
= Monday, August 3rd, 2009
9 people in all attended our regular star-wars tournament. 2 players were late entries, which I easily entered for round 2. I hate to admit that time is becoming an issue. When time is called the SWM floor rules allows the players to finish the current round - thus all players activate all characters in turn sequence, but no new initiative is rolled. The problem being that this process can take more than ten minutes for larger games - and we only have 3 hours to complete 3 rounds given our venue.
My solution thus far has been to clip round time to 45 or even 40 minutes, and to collect results about 5 minutes after time is called.
Picture: Tom B and Dave M square off in round 1. Dave went on to win the tournament 3-0 with his Mandalorian squad.

SWM: Star Wars Free Play
= SWM: Star Wars Free Play
= Tuesday, July 27th, 2009
We had 8 people attend our free play event. Personally I like free play events because they allow you to explore the game and learn new stuff. I, for example, played only one battle, but used a mercenary squad with Nym - which isn’t my usual squad. I also did more than a few trades, watched pieces of two different games, and just kinda sat back and talked strategy some.
Picture: Dave M. talking strategy to two of our younger players, Mason and Jerimiah (off-frame).

SWM: Star Wars 150pt joint team (modified)
= SWM: Star Wars 150pt joint team (modified)
= Monday, July 20th, 2009
First, let me explain a bit about this format. We call it ‘joint team’ and it is very loosely based on other team formats where the team shares resources such as two-headed giant. For this tournament each player fielded 150pts, but teams played on the same map against other teams. Thus each team had a combined 300pts, and could share commander effects as well as strategies together.
I must say that this particular tournament was a resounding success. 7 teams (or 14 players) participated. Unfortunately the tournament did not go smoothly. I planned to go 4 rounds, but then had to cut the last round when I realized that each round was taking too long (we have to finish before the store closes). Also play was continuing long after time was called, so I had to visit each table and demand results before end-of-match procedure was performed completely. Still the attendance (and thus the available prize) was impressive, Thus overall I’m pleased with how things turned out in the end.

Star Wars Minis: Free Play
= Star Wars Minis: Free Play
= Monday, July 13th, 2009
Recently some of my players have been asking about ships. So for this free-play we decided to break out Star Wars ships. The ships minis use different maps, minis, and rules than the character game, so I was interested to learn a bit more about it. I’ve done ships before, but only a few times, and it was quite some time ago. As a free-play the event was moderately successful. There were about 7 people there. However, the ships part of the free play didn’t go over well. 2 People played one ship battle, and the rest were content to play or trade character minis. Still, I would like to thank Zach for supporting this free play by bringing in his ships, maps, rule books, etc.

SWM 100pt Sealed (Jedi Academy)
= SWM: 100pt sealed (Jedi Academy)
= Monday, July 6th 2009
I was expecting a few more people than normal for our sealed tournament featuring the new set. Perhaps 5-7. I got a whopping eleven, making this my largest SWM tournament ever! It took a bit more to organize the event. Had to drag out an extra table, prepare an extra map, etc. I had a sealed case of Jedi Academy that I passed out, each player got 1 booster to build 100 points with. We opened 3 Jedi Academy, 1 Bounty Hunters, and 1 Legacy of the Force for our prize pool.
The first thing that was noticed, is that Jedi Academy is a fairly high-point cost set. Some people could make their 100 with two or three characters. Others did it with 4-5. One lucky (or unlucky) player did it with one (Grand Master Luke). This compared to Imperial entanglements where a player could use their whole pack and still not make 100.
The tournament went exceptionally well. A lot of players managed to go 2-0 with a fair number of victory points. We went a total of 4 rounds and Dave managed a 4-0 record with a squad that included (among other things) Darth Plagueis.
With such a large tournament, there was bound to be an interesting question or two. Twice there was a question about lightsaber throw. And yes, it is considered a non-melee attack. And yes, the target does get a cover bonus if they have cover and the force power is Lightsaber Throw 1 or 2 (3 or higher ignores cover).
The other question concerned a character with Force Renewal 1, and subject to the Force corruption ability of an opponent’s character. In this case, it mattered which occurred first, since the character could (theoretically) use the force point gained from force renewal to reroll the save for force corruption. This falls under ‘Simultaneous Effects’ so in this case the player who controls the corrupted character chooses which effect to apply first.

Six people attended this tournament. The actual tournament was very interesting. 4 players went 2-1, and happened to have the same OMW% - so the first four places of the tournament were decided on the third tier tiebreaker. In SWM this is total points earned over all rounds played. So we had a very interesting lineup of matches. Of course, there was more than moderate discussion of the new set, Jedi Academy (releasing tomorrow). I had a poster displayed and a few extras that I handed out free for promotional purposes.

SWM: Free Play
= SWM: Free Play
= Monday, June 22nd, 2009
Five players dropped by for our free play night. I personally participated in two interesting skirmishes. The first was separatist vs separatist. I was running mostly smaller point figures with Dirge and Count Duku, my opponent was running General Grevious and several larger pieces such as the droid starfighter, large crab droid, spider droid, and halfire droid. Basically my smaller pieces were decimated in the early game with missiles and rockets, but I managed to pull through in the end through mostly the efforts of my two rare characters.
The other battle was just as interesting because of the build of the squads. Dave had a 150pt squad that was specifically designed to take out a squad built around General Obi-Wan (from the clone wars starter). I happened to have such a squad. Dave’s squad was centered around a collection of Kel Dor Bounty Hunter which he would strategically detonate with Darth Sidious and Count Duku (also out of the clone wars starter).
