Fall In! 2007 Related LMW Works Events
Friday pm & Saturday Am & PM Vendor Area
Title: Holy Hack Second Edition Open Invitational
Rules: Holy Hack Second Edition (Biblical Warfare)
Period: Ancients
Theme Game: No
Description: This will be an open invitation with one session on Friday afternoon in the Vendor area at Fall In! Saturday, there will be two sessions. Times are to be determined - one a.m., and one in the mid-afternoon. There will be two tables in front the Precision Products booth in the vendor area.
Here is what I plan on doing. Players can walk up and select a turn phase of the game. Say, Chariots Charging Chariots, Shooting or whatever. They can even set up the situation. I take them through the event of the phase they have selected.
The tables will have a few fancy background period buildings and enough figures to put on a Biblical game.
I hope this will introduce new players or explain to older gamers and general onlookers how the game system works. I think this way I can encourage and not discourage players from getting into Ancients.
So far, sponsors will be LMW Works, Precision Products and MagWeb.
If you are interested, please let me know, and stop by to see how the game plays. Or just stop by to say hello.
