We began this tradition last year as a low-key build up to nationals. And like last year, we are going to meet at the front of the main hall at 6:45 on Wednesday June 28, the evening before Origins officially begins. So those of you who are planning your trips (or will be in the coming month after national qualifiers), take advantage of getting there on Wednesday to beat the lines, get your badge and play some mechwarrior!
Please PM me if you think you are going to participate so I can get a ballpark idea of how many people we are going to have.

The 2nd Annual Origins Scrubby Match!
This game will take place on Wednesday, June 28 from 7-10pm at Origins.
We are going to meet at the front of the main hall at 6:45pm, find some space and divide up. Find me… I’ll be the guy with the goatee and the Liao Hat.
In an effort to keep this a low-key, enjoyable event for all, there are no prizes. There are no rankings. There will be ZERO rules-lawyering tolerated. And as a special rule: If at any time a player is not having fun, he or she will be automatically disqualified! We ask that participating Battlemasters bring your extra play mats!
All armies…
… should be 750 point, faction pure builds (all units must have the same faction symbol. i.e.; no rainbow armies or situational alliances allowed. Likewise, grand and house alliances will not be in effect for this tournament). EXCEPTION: You may play merc/gunslinger pure as long as each unit has the same paint scheme. Obviously if you take the time to paint your own units or assemble one of the mercenary groups, you can get around the 100 pt merc/gunslinger restriction below. No fair mixing merc groups though. All kell hounds (or your own painted merc regiment, or lancers, etc) or it doesn’t count.
…MUST have a ‘Mech!
…can have no more than 2 VTOLS.
…can have no more than 2 artillery units.
…may include only up to a total of 100pts of mercenary and gunslinger units, and then only if a mercenary contract is purchased or recruitment is paid to keep the army pure faction.
…may use units from any released Mechwarrior set.
All players…
… must be there to have fun.
… should neither ask for nor be given quarter.
… must bring 4 pieces of terrain as well as normal supplies (ruler, dice, arty markers).
… who have 3”x3” playmats of their own should bring those along.
This will be a three round tournament. Planetary Condition cards will be used.
Please PM me if you think you are going to participate so I can get a ballpark idea of how many people we are going to have.
