Haven't got any Heroclix yet, but we just picked up a couple packs of the Mech Warrior: Dark Ages... Quite nice.
Castle questions...
Many thoughts and then tell me to shutup!
1) Is this going to be 1 big room or a complete castle with starting points for everyone?
1a) If it's a big room, what will the dimensions be? If you could even throw a pre-description out here that would be great.
2) Preparation stuff...
2a) Will everyone start off with protective spells cast and/or armor on or will eveyone have to start naked? I can see how a spell caster will have a problem with me (or anyone else) that has armor on before showing up to this battle. They may want to cast some spells (Mage armor, shield, etc.) to help them out before us fighters start hacking at them.
3) Detect magic spell? I'm guessing that the spellcaster will cast detect magic to figure out what's magical and what's not. I can see this as being a problem with describing what they see of if they don't want everyone else to know what they see.
4) You had mentioned that there is no teleporting, but what about teleporting, dimension door, etc within the castle?
I am glad your DMing this so I can watch and learn for next year.
Thanks

Re: Castle questions...
1. Characters will be starting in random positions on the playing field in or around a castle that will be unknown to them.
2. Any protective spells or activation of items will have to occur after the game begins.
3. The DM will have to deal with that in game.
4. No teleporting, plane walking or related spells or items within or without.
Hope that helps!

Re: Re: Castle questions...
Thanks for the clarification. The no teleporting or dimension door even within the castle is a big point.

Looks Great
Thanks for the clarification. I wasn't sure about one of the things...
Is the castle/room going to have halls and rooms and stuff or is this something we will find out when we get there? Sort of like being teleported into a random castle and then killing everyone that moves?
Just trying to figure out some tactics before actually stepping onto the play field.
Like I said, you can just tell me to stop asking questions.
PS. Will you want mini's brought for our characters or will you have a selection there? or are they even needed?

I sure plan on bringing a mini. I have a great one that John painted for me.

Nope it will be a castle with no rooms or halls.
Just kidding

I'm not sure if I'll be able to attend this one, due to the uncertainty of football playoffs, but go ahead and put me down for breakfast and Trev's game in the first slot. Perhaps at the next game I will run something.... perhaps. Sounds like it's going to be a blast, hope I can make it!
