The Champion of Arcadia

As you know Animosity events are run to create a non-competitive gaming environment where the focus is on having fun with the miniatures you love in the gameworlds you enjoy. To support this we trying a new system as Arcadia Falls. We feel that the first objective for all players is to create a fun, involving game. We realise that there is a degree of competition, and keeping that is important, but this shouldn’t be allowed to escalate to the point that the fun is pushed out. And it’s always tempting to push your list that little bit harder…

To this end, we will allocate Victory points for each individual game as set out in the pack, after the Rout concluding the Fall we ask everyone to vote for their favourite game. This vote should go the battle of the fall that you most enjoyed, it can based on whatever you find fun, but we expect to provide an environment where you’ll get a game that comes with a story, where you face a colourful opposing force with character, that has been written with your experience in mind and not an optimised list of pieces from the current tournament favourite.

The three players who receive the most votes (and who have also voted) will be asked to step forward at the end of the event for and one will be award the title of Animosity Champion.

We hope this will encourage everyone to bear in mind that we are playing to enjoy the journey, as only by leaving a trail of happy opponents in your wake can you take the title of Animosity Champion…

Voting for the Champion

At the end of the event please collect a voting slip from Mark Evans. These are to be completed with the name of the opponent you most enjoyed playing (this could be one half of a team from a doubles game). The slips are to be returned to Mark who will note receipt of your vote and add it anonymously to the ballot box. You will need to have participated in the voting to be eligible for the Animosity Champion title.

Victory Points

Toward the end of each round Mark will walk round the tables and provide a scoring sheet. Please fill this in with your opponent. Once you’re done please return them to Mark who will keep a running total of everyone VPs.

I'm gutted I missed this event.

It sounds amazing.

A couple of questions, where are your events usually held ? (I can't seem to find it anywhere).

How often do your run 30K events ?

We usually play out of Slayer Gaming in Mansfield. At the moment we've got a few none HH events lined up but we are welcoming HH armies to APOCALYPTICON UK in November (just no named characters from HH books).

There will be HH events announced soon though Grimm so keep your eyes peeled!
