Gladiator CAGE MATCHES! January 9, 2013 EVO Games - 6:30 registration - Free admission ![]() Game size: 20 points, Mangled Metal/Tooth and Claw rules* Timed turns: 7 minute turns; one 5 minute extension per game Deployment: Steamroller deployment rules The Octagon: Gladiator pits will be set on the table. This functions like a Killbox (lose if out) starting at the end of the last player’s 3rd turn. Scoring: Unlike a normal game, the goal here is to please the onlookers with violent displays, rather than just quick kills. Whoever has the most points at the end of the match wins! Ending the game: The game ends when there is only one warcaster/warlock in play, or time is called. Prize: Gladiator coin to the champion * beast, jacks, casters only...colossals do not fit in the arena. ------------- SCORING ------------- Points are totalled in the following ways: 1 point scored: - Performing a successful slam, arm/headlock, headbutt, or one- or two-handed throw - Gaining an additional damage die from collisions with terrain or other models (i.e. slam a model into a wall) - Gain an additional point if a model was killed through a collision (includes collateral damage) Points are removed: - The crowds mean nothing - Assassinate a warcaster/warlock in round 1: -3 pts - This fool had to die - Assassinate a warcaster/warlock in round 2: -2 pts - Why prolong the inevitable? - Assassinate a warcaster/warlock in round 3 or later: -1 pt - Your style is weak - Destroy a model with a normal attack: -1pt - COWARD!!!! - Your caster triggers Killbox win for opponent: -4pts ------------- THE WHIM OF THE CROWD ------------- Roll a 2d6 at the beginning of each round to see what the Crowd demands! Apply the effect to ALL players for that round. 2: Show Mercy! If a player destroys an enemy warcaster or warlock, they suffer an additional -1 pt. 3: Kick them when they're down! Weapons with the Open Fist ability gain Trash (additional die of damage against knocked down models) 4: Size counts! You get +1 pt if your most expensive remaining warjack/warbeast destroys an enemy’s weakest remaining warjack/warbeast. 5: Clobberin’ time! Friendly warjacks and warbeasts gain +2 to slam, headbutt, or one or two-handed throw damage rolls. 6: Hold him back! Arm/headlock power attacks give an additional +1 pt. 7: The Crowd ROARS! Your warcaster or warlock can forfeit his activation to pump up the crowd. Because of their cheering and support, ALL friendly warjacks/warbeasts do not spend focus or need to be forced for power attacks. They also receive +2 to slam, headbutt, one- or two-handed throws, and arm/headlock power attack and damage rolls. 8: Concussion! Headbutt power attacks give +1 pt 9: Use the Chair! A warjack or warbeast with the Open Fist ability receives a (*attack) Chair. This attack has a base POW of 5 and the Knockdown ability. +1pt 10: Get Him Outta Here! Slams and throws move models an additional 2”. 11: The fans are loose! Models slammed or thrown into the outer walls of the arena trigger a collapse, freeing d6 small based infantry models into the arena. Place models around the model hitting the wall. These are non-friendly, enemy models that charge the closest active models immediately (SPD 5, MAT 5, POW 8, gang, trash) then are removed from play. 12: Finish Him! If a warcaster or warlock destroys an enemy warcaster or warlock, they receive +1 pt and do not suffer any caster kill point penalty. Edited by apollosun, Jan 9 2013, 11:48 AM.

For next Wednesday...If any of the new players want a sneaky trick or two to pull off with slams/power attacks, shoot me a PM with your Cage Match list and I'll drop some experience. If there is one thing I'm good at in this game, it's getting an aggressive power attack off to open up a win condition. |

The format is fantastic Kris. But south FW is a crazy stretch for the Dallas crew...it's like Gunslinger for most of us, just a bit too far for a casual night of gaming. You'll miss Throwing models, having them shatter against arena walls and getting swarmed by fans. Cheering headbutts for extra points. Hitting models with chairs...so violently awesome. |

Yeah it sounds like a blast. I live in N Dallas in Little Elm so that is a pretty long drive. |
