Battletech: Grinder
-
Battletech Grinder
Max 8 players at a time, Waitlist will cycle as players are eliminated and they go to the end of the line.
You start with the lowest level mech with the most basic equipment. When your ‘Mech is destroyed you move up to the next level which contains mechs with slightly more advanced equipment. Through this progression you learn how to use all the common equipment in Battletech. This game is not paused or restarted at event breaks, we just add/remove players and continue play without resetting the board. All ability levels are welcome.

This event has a $10 fee which goes to prize support / purchase of the OP Kits.
Force Creation:
• Please follow standard force creation rules from the Cyberpunk Red: Combat Zone current rulebook.
• 110 Eb force » THE COOL: Every force MUST include 2 Gonks from your faction. That’s what the extra 10 EBs are for. However, you must have the influence to back this up. If you team has zero influence skill, then you lose the ten EBs and can not run Gonks. If you have one Influence skill, then you lose 5 EBs and can only run one gonk..
• 4 Street Cred allowing you to promote up to 4 stars. No additional SC can be purchased. These four stars are free ignoring the standard 5 Eb cost.
1.5 Hour Rounds with breaks between.
Prizes for 1st and second place, plus every player leaves with something from the MFC Organized Play kits! Additional prize support will be offered based on # of players.
