Boldo's League

[boldo]

I was thinking of starting a league in December on Tuesday night. I was hoping that people might be interested in something I call a planet league. The basic idea is that each planet allows certain things and when you win a game you get another planet. So the basic army would be an HQ, up to 6 troops, one transport, and one of the following: Fast attack, Heavy Support, or Elite. Players will then roll up three planets and each planet allows something. Some of the basic planets might allow another HQ, Elite, Fast Attack, transport, or Heavy. Each game both players put up a planet and another planet is rolled up. The winner gets first and third pick of the planets. If there is a draw then the player who had the fewest planets gets first pick but each player only gets one planet.

Does this sound interesting?

Sounds like it could be cool. As long as it isn't a map campaign so that you don't get stuck fighting the same people over and over again.

And as long as any of the individual planets that get rolled up aren't overly powerful. Or if they are allow for some sort of planetary invasion where you give up some sort of advantage to pick which planet of your opponents you fight over.

No this is an idea to play whom ever you like and each time get a reward. It is not map based and the planets will be things like one additional Fast attack, one additional transport, or one extra heavy. I hope to have full details soon.

Details of the league.
1500pts planet league but we will not be using the normal force org chart. Each army can include only one HQ, 6 Troops, only 1 transport , and one of either elite, heavy support, or fast attack plus additional units based upon planets they own. Players will roll for three planets as follows
2-3 HQ or transport 7 Transport
4 Heavy support 8 Heavy support
5 Elite 9 Elite
6 Attack 10 Fast attack
11-12 Add 2d6 times 10 points to your point total

Each week players may play any person they like. Players will have to ante a planet each game and a third planet is rolled. The winner chooses first of the planets then the loser gets to choose and the final planet is goes to the winner. We will play every week in January and February.

I plan to offer an additional 10% discount (total 20)to all players on purchases league night.

Thanks,
