Babylon 5
There will be four Babylon 5 tournaments, a sealed deck, a regular, a social open and a Highlander tournament. Standard rules (Deluxe edition version) and FAQ's apply. For Sealed Deck tournaments, minimum deck size is 45 cards. Will be using the "Virtual Kosh" and "Virtual Justin" rule. This means that any player may spend 3 influence to gain a temporary Vorlon or Shadow mark. There is no limit to how many temporary marks may be gained in this fashion, apart from influence required. Players may also trade cards on a one for one basis with other players in the tournament and only with cards obtained for the tournament. All cards not included in your deck are considered to be in your sideboard.
Social Tournaments are regular open tournaments, which are scored differently. The objective is to be creative and have fun, winning just ends the game. After each round (when the game ends), each player at the table awards two point to an opponent. One point for role playing (getting into the spirit of the game and his deck) and one point for the player who made you game the most fun for you. The final table will be drawn from the player of each race who had the maximal number of votes throughout the preliminary rounds for "made the game fun". Ties will be broken first with role-playing, then possibly fewest opponents played, then randomly, or we could advance both/all members of a race who are tied after comparing the top 2 vote categories. The player who is voted best in each category at the final table will get prizes, as will the best overall role-player if they did not make the final table, with additional rewards for overall the three main prize positions (overall most fun player, best role-player of the most fun players and best role-player overall). Any player willing and able to play more than 2 racial decks at the tournament automatically will receive a bonus vote for making the game fun for others. A judge in such a tournament is allowed to play and compete for the awards. If he can make the game fun for everyone and earn a prize, so much the better!
For open tournaments, players may have a sideboard reserve of 20 cards, which they can use to modify their decks between rounds. Deck minimum is 60 cards. Maximum of 3 of any cards. There will be 3 qualifying rounds of 3 or 5 players, with the highest scoring players of each race going into a final round. Each round will have a 60 minutes time limit. Each player receives a base score equal to their final position. If the game has an outright winner (20pts), the winning player receives 4 bonus points to their score. The winner of the game also awards 2 points to any other player/s of their choice. If the victory is by Major Agenda the winner scores 2 bonus points and can award an extra point to another player/s. Everyone carries their base score into the next qualifying game. The highest scoring player of each race after the qualifying rounds, goes into the final. All previous scores are ignored and all players start again at base zero. The top two players of each race receive prizes.
The highlander open is a standard tournament, except that only one of each card is allowed in your deck.
Races for Sealed Deck tournaments will be randomly determined. Sealed deck consists of one starter and three boosters. An alternate faction starter will also be opened and each player will get the alternate "ambassador and race cards" plus remaining cards at random. For the open tournament, each player is required to bring a minimum of three alliance races, as all five player games must include one of each race. (Players that do not have three decks, can not score bonus points). Each player will only play one race for the duration of each tournament. Zeta Squadron members gain a world ranking. Prizes include: certificates, cards boxes and card packets, promo cards and for any tournament with 24 or more players, a signed Babylon 5 card.
