Community Results tracking sheet

By Church14, in Runewars Miniatures Game

Alright all, I've gotten the time to hammer this together. In essence, I'm going to do to Runewars what the Twilight Imperium 4th edition community did. Below is a link to a submission form. If you play a game, fill this out and it'll go in the sheet.

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfYwCrD047OLCiNO074AxpzbxEyNjxKob6fCcsUIK6ReOtUXw/viewform?usp=sf_link

If there are clear typos, or people using the survey see a clearer way to phrase a question, let me know. I want this to be intuitive and effective. I do not care if that means I need a lesson in oxford commas or run-on sentences.

A few questions in the form might not be straightforward. So as best I can predict, here's a FAQ.

Q) What are tournament points or how do I calculate them?

A) Tournament points are a way to simplify results. Basically, find the difference between the winner’s and loser’s scores. This is MoV. Look below for MoV to tournament score

MoV: 0-29, Winner gets 6, loser 5

MoV: 30-69, Winner gets 7 loser 4

MoV: 70-109, Winner 8, loser 3

MoV: 110-149, Winner 9, loser 2

MoV 150-200, Winner 10, loser 1

Q) What is the community errata question about?

A) Belliom has a suggested balance package. It is a short list of suggested changes for units that appear to be over or underperforming. For this question though, if you are using the balance package but none of the units in either army are affected by it, please answer NO. I understand that not everyone agrees with every suggestion, but for the sake of making the tracking sheet at all useful, please use all of them or none.

Q) What do these list archetypes mean?

A) See a lot of links below

Q) What if a list fits the description of multiple archetypes?

A) Choose the archetype that fits the performance on the table best. There will probably be overlap between certain archetypes. For example, "Bunker" and "Balanced." If you bring a list that seems to straddle between those two, but your opponent brought a bunker and you decided to go on offense, select "Balanced." If your opponent brought an Uthuk list that crossed the table in a turn and you just hunkered down, select "Bunker." Yes, EVERYTHING SHANE BUILDS IS PROBABLY "OTHER."

List Archetype Examples (in progress):

Balanced (A bit of everything)

Baneslinger/BoonSlinger (A list reliant on putting up enough banes to gum up an opponent. Think 2X corruption runes)

Bunker (A list designed to sit back and let opponents come to them)

Waiqar Example: http://tabletopadmiral.com/runewars/undead/p072u0ep072u0ep101u3du3ap0f2u27uEMu0ep1a1ua3ub0

MSU (Lots of little things)

Offensive Death Star (Typically a hero, a single death star, and 2+ supporting units to cover flanks)

Uthuk Example: http://tabletopadmiral.com/runewars/uthuk/p141u85u75p124uEMu27u59u54u51p152u8bp153uEMu8b

Spam (Lots of one thing. For the most part, this is threshers)

Uthuk Example: http://tabletopadmiral.com/runewars/uthuk/p152u8bp152u8bp152u8bp152u8bp152u8bp152u8b

KariThorn (uses Hawthorne and Kari to bring in 4x1 Oathsworn and 4x1 deepwoods)

Example: http://tabletopadmiral.com/runewars/human/p022uEMuEMu0ep022uEMuEMu0ep0e1u32u31p061u3duEMp0b2u13uEMuEMuEM

Deathcaller Disco

Example: http://tabletopadmiral.com/runewars/undead/p083u2au47uEMu12u43p083u2au47uEMu12u43p031ua3uEMp1a1u3dua2

Double Archer Stars

Example: http://tabletopadmiral.com/runewars/undead/p013u27u47u25p013u27u47u25p1a1u3dua2p111u77u0e

Resurrection

Blitz (across the map in one turn)

Example: http://tabletopadmiral.com/runewars/uthuk/p132u24u68p132u24u68p132u24u68p1f1u3dub7ubc

Reserving for some results summary once I get to that point

The form looked good to me. I'll be happy to report as soon as we can get in games. Its just been really slow the past two weeks.

Margin of Victory Win Loss

0-29 6 5

30-69 7 4

70-109 8 3

110-149 9 2

150-200 10 1

more information

we have local meta - no uthuk plastic around. Should I mention it always in additional information?

Also, finally, are we going to change costs for upgrades never seen on table like war crier?

Would it work to add a locale optional field? Basically, the data would begin to show where people play what faction. With enough games entered, it might be enough to show if a faction being absent from an area is significant to balance.

I am not directly driving the errata/balancing choices. Belliom is driving that. I’m just trying to give us data to figure out if specific build types, heroes, factions, whatever are under/overpferforming. His survey was a good way to kickstart the project while we wait for enough data.
