Re: War Games Event

With recent drops, it has come to our attention that half of the War Games threads are permanently stalled.

With that being said, we want to give folks an opportunity to discuss the results of the War Games Round 1 battles, since it seems unlikely any of them will be threaded to completion. Just go ahead and use this post for that plotting purpose. Alliteration!

That's true! If there was any counter-advantage it was luck and a difference in tactical approach. In particular, if Tiamaris had to withdraw for an extended period and there was a lot more to be done with the key up on top besides just fetching it, Alric's tactical gamble would almost certainly backfire, since he'd then be alone against both of them and whatever else might be up there. Even with 2-on-2, though, Reimu and Flandre may have some extra advantage in that Alric and Tiamaris are both (I think) a bit hesitant to cut loose on people.

I'll check in with Tiamaris' player to see if there's any objection, but I suspect we're both okay with either doing something random (weighted in X-Force's favor or even) or calling it close or whatever you guys like.

Update: Tiamaris' player is OK with a random roll weighted 3-to-1 in X-Force's favor, if you want to do it that way, or even, or however!

rolled a 1d6, where 1 or 2 would equal Dragons victory, and got a 3, meaning X-Force captured the card first.

OK! I think we can definitely call it close but an X-Force win due to their advantages.
